this is my point. no paper trail? so evidence towards who you actually voted for? You say this but the machine says otherwise. i agree with you that every method has ways of fraud...even te paper ones..i read an article in my paper about a voting place in the next town over...a man was sitting in the back room ripping up all the ballots with democrat on them.

what bothers me is what about all those people's votes?

computers are much easier to manipulate than paper...a few keystrokes and votes could be changed..no one would be the wise...

shoulnt exit poll's match the actual votes? to a certain degree i mean not 100% accurate...
