6. Did you vote in San Diego?
I did. You hand fill out your own large very simple scantron ballot which is about 20 times larger in print then the average scan tron. Each box is marked right there with a giant bubble next to each name so it's hard to screw it up. The machine reads the ballot right there while you wait just encase there is any trouble in reading it so things can be fixed by the voter before they leave. Then the original ballot is retained encase a recount is needed and the voter is issued a reciept.

If you were from San Diego you'd know that. There are original paper ballots which the voter filled out and that's what is recounted. Like I said some things have been identified which need to be changed to better protect the system but so far there is no crediable indication of any sort of systematic fraud like some people here had been claiming. That's just the facts.
