Require a paper receipt be made available after every vote cast in public elections. Or mandate the use of paper ballots

Created by H.G. on January 09, 2015

Voters have a right to know that the buttons they pushed accurately recorded their vote for their candidates. It's a law that stores have to give you a receipt for your purchase. I am asking that a receipt is provided for one's voter choices in every state, county and city election. The machines used in my home state, Georgia, ought to be trashed, and paper ballots used. I doubt that will happen. Unfortunately, not enough citizens know their cast vote can be easily lost, along with thousands of others on a single memory card. Our Georgia Secretary of State, Brian Kemp, has even outsourced tabulation and state website information posting to a Florida firm. Maybe, Mr President, you could also ban the privatization of our election process and get our elected officials to do their jobs. Thanks
