Yes on Fully Electronic Voting

What I find disheartening is that we still use anything BUT fully electronic voting systems. After all there is no other aspect of your life that is not completely computerized. The entire financial system of the planet runs on computers and the idea that you would create a ‘paper trail’ of these transactions is preposterous. Why then would you insist on a paper trail in a modern vote?

Remember the voting disaster in Florida; that was a paper based system – chad is paper. A completely electronic system is the only hope we have for a transparent election.
