League of Women Voters Drops Support of Paperless Voting Machines
So there is some good news today after all.
While not quite an endorsement of a 'paper-trail,' its definitely a step in the right direction. Now if only the American Association of People with Disabilities and the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights would rescind their endorsements. (see my previous post on this here)
League of Women Voters Drops Support of Paperless Voting Machines: "The League of Women Voters rescinded its support of paperless voting machines after hundreds of angry members voiced concern that paper ballots were the only way to safeguard elections from fraud, hackers or computer malfunctions.
About 800 delegates who attended the nonpartisan league's biennial convention in Washington voted overwhelmingly Monday in favor of a resolution that supports 'voting systems and procedures that are secure, accurate, recountable and accessible.'"
