Bypassing E-Voting
Listen
Activists in two states seek an alternative to electronic voting machines before their upcoming primaries.
In Maryland, a citizens group called the Campaign for Verifiable Voting is asking election officials to provide paper ballots alongside e-voting machines in the state's upcoming primary,to be held March 2nd. The group is concerned that computerized balloting is prone to fraud, and may not count votes accurately.
Meanwhile, the California Voter Foundation, a non-profit voter education group, is urging state residents to vote by absentee ballot, a method that uses paper.
