Trustworthy Elections Resolution

 

WHEREAS trustworthy elections are basic to democracy,

 

WHEREAS trustworthy elections require that each vote is anonymous, secure, verified by the voter and counted as intended by the voter,

 

WHEREAS paperless voting machines make it impossible for us to verify that our votes are correctly recorded,

 

WHEREAS paperless voting machines make it impossible to prove that each vote is correctly counted,

 

WHEREAS a receipt printer on a paperless voting machine would not solve these problems because the votes printed on the receipt can be different from the votes stored in the machine, and because votes on the receipts would rarely be counted,

 

WHEREAS accurate re-counting requires that the votes on the original paper ballots be examined and counted, and that the results from a previous count are not known to the people doing the re-counting,

 

WHEREAS failure to conduct trustworthy elections opens the door to undetectable errors and fraud and destroys voter confidence,

 

THEREFORE, we voters want to hand mark or machine mark our votes onto full-ballot-text paper ballots, to check our votes before we cast them, to know that the votes on our paper ballot are what get counted, and to have access to proof that every ballot is accounted for and that every vote is correctly understood and counted.
