Personally, I want electronic voting. I think it is safe and reliable when compared to paper balloting. In recent news articles, supposed computer science experts state that electronic voting is not safe.
Well, I don’t hear these same “experts” telling us not to withdraw our money from ATMs or to stop online banking. Alternatively, arguments against paper printouts from electronic voting are just as perplexing. Some say it costs too much. Others bring up the safety issue. Again, we get all the paper we want from an ATM, in our mail, and at our disposal online. My question:
What is so unsafe about electronic voting and what makes it a larger risk than other forms of electronic commerce?
Thanks
