Voted in Hayward, CA.

Southland mall has you put your printed ballot (if you go the electronic route at the booth) into a huge blue confidential bag with a slit. The printed ballot has a huge qr code on the front. What it also has is all of your choices below it.

I worry whoever scans the code to count the vote can easily overlook scanning it because they can see plain as day who you chose directly under the code.

We need to eliminate these middle-man scanners. It makes no sense for something submitted electronically to have to be rescanned by a human being.
