Section 5: OPA Board Subject: Dump Internet Voting Msg# 1209758

One possible option would be to have the internet votes be printed on ballots that are identical to the mail-in ballots. Either scan them in with the mail-ins, or, if there is a close vote, then do a re-count incorporating the printed email ballots. Its not rocket science.
Not rocket science but not a particularly good idea. Maybe you could suggest it for the coming presidential election. The internet option would be a convenience for those not living here full time or who are travelling and unable to receive mail. Spare me. In any event, each ballot should be bar-coded with pertinent information, so that when it is separated from the envelope, its origin/lot number/owner can be identified/traced. Right, then anyone can know how you voted. In the present scenario, once the ballot is separated from the envelope, it is just a piece of paper with no way to determine it's origin. As properly intended for many, many years. There should be one paper or internet vote/ballot for each lot, not multiple lots per ballot. As has been the case with every election except for 2022, and that fiasco was the result of the guy handling the Internet voting being unable to have individual online ballots per lo, and a committee that did not understand the ramifications. Send out all paper ballots -- required now. Allow only paper ballot returns. That is simple, and can be verified. |

Previous election committees left many loopholes that could not be fixed after the fact, even with a re-count.
