I hope you were speaking facetiously, Griff. 129 votes decided our state's most recent Governor's race. Out of a total of over 4 million votes. Close *does* happen. Close *does* count.

Back to the main topic:

I believe that any system that doesn't provide a paper audit trail for a manual recount is fatally flawed. And some of the paper trail systems I've seen are only an ace away from fatal themselves. Diebold is not on the right track wrt security and reliability and traceability. Far from it.
