I first started complaining about this back in 2000, when it was said that all you needed to shift an election was 5 minutes alone with one of these machines and a USB drive. Of course everybody was calling me paranoid. You don’t even need a USB drive now.
Like even that aside technology is inherently malfunction prone, even if they were unhackable there’s always the chance something goes wrong. With a piece of paper the worst that can happen is that it gets destroyed and reduced to null.

Straight party voting was eliminated in Texas in 2020, at least

As a Californian who’s only ever used paper ballots this confuses and disgusts me. I wish to do a march to the sea.
