I voted on November 3 in person. Walked in with DL and voter ID card to listed polling location, they took my DL and I think scanned it and had me digitally sign. They gave me a card to insert into computer where I cast my vote and it printed out a ballot which I feed into a machine. So the feeding machine is what counts the votes, and this is the point a vote could be switched? Is there anyway my printed out ballot could be reproduced changing my vote? In other words is my vote more secure for a hand recount then a mailed in ballot vote?
I THINK that your vote is safe; that is the point of the new paper-trail machines. The previous machines lacked a paper-trail and that's why they were effectively outlawed in Georgia. The point though is that the old machines ARE still being used in PA and MI and other critical states.
