electronic voting

1. People are concerned that the electronic voting machines are easy to tamper with, that anybody who knows about technology can just upload a "vote stealing" program onto a memory car and sneak it onto a machine. People are worried that this happens more often than not and that more people have access to tamper with votes because the machines are not secure and they have design flaws that don't protect them from viruses either.
2. I think that the only foolproof way to ensure that all of the votes are counted correctly is to spend more time getting the results and more effort to organize the process. Part of the process would most definitely have to be done by hand, people counting ballots. And the other could be electronic, but there has to be a different way of identifying votes, like maybe stickers put onto ballots that have a code that the computer recognizes specifically as a vote for that candidate. Something else that could be done, but would be time consuming, is to change memory cards every hour, completely erasing everything on the computer before each new one is put in. This would be helpful to do right before people started counting votes or voting.
