This isn't an electronic voting system.

> ElectionGuard provides a complete implementation of end-to-end verifiable elections. It is designed to work with systems that use paper ballots, supplementing today’s tabulation process by providing a means of public verification of the accuracy of reported results.



Digital tabulation is electronic voting.

The paper becomes the recount, which gets challenged in court and might not even happen.


So, it sounds like you're entirely in support of this article, the only tiny change you want to make is for the paper to be counted FIRST, and then the eletronic tabulation to be used as a validator. And any discrepancy results in an investigation, no?


I'm opposed to any form of electronic counting. If the first hand count of paper ballots has a problem, then they can be re-counted. By humans.
