I voted this morning, using one of the new electronic voting machines. It was very easy to use, and voting went very quickly. There's just one thing that bothered me. When I left, they handed me an "I Voted" sticker. That's it. No paper receipt, with an ID number on it. There's no physical proof I even voted (besides my signature in the names book), much less who I voted for. I know how to program computers. I know how many bugs are in software these days. You don't even need hackers to mess with things (which gets easier and easier for them to do), you just need a stupid programming mistake (again, easier and easier to have happen). And I won't even go into the paranoia of "what if the company who wrote the software got paid off to fix the vote?"
