When the United States separated from Britain in the 18th century, our revolutionary idea of democracy transformed us into a beacon of illumination to a sea of tyranny. From Washington to the 21st century, the electorate depended on the voting method of paper ballots for their very freedom from the forces of monarchism and communism. However, in recent years a new system has sprung up, the upstart challenger to centuries of tradition. It is claimed to be an efficient and quick system to handle our votes. However, these are susceptible to hacking, and require less oversight than paper. If this method is used, our votes could be miscounted, tampered with, or just thrown in the trash. You may think it could not happen here, but in fifty years, would your gamble be worth your kids' liberty.
