U.S. House of Representatives has before it a bill that would require paper-trail ballots to be used with direct recording electronic voting machines. Paper audit trails would create an “even bigger dispute” than past elections with missing electronic votes, report says. Paper trail ballots would also increase the cost of elections, report author Daniel Castro says. Supporters of paper trail audits disputed the reports findings, calling it a “screed to support the industry” The report discounts claims that e-voting machines can be hacked and elections reversed, but malicious hacking isnt the only problem.”]
