Glenn Reynolds relays some great news:
New Mexico's 33 counties will switch from a patchwork of voting methods to a single paper-ballot system under a bill signed into law Thursday by Gov. Bill Richardson.The governor, who pushed the proposal through the recent legislative session, said the system would make voting more secure and restore the public's confidence in elections.
Richardson is a kook for the most part, but he's right on about this.
I'd love to see more of this around the country. The widespread use of electronic voting falls under the category of "just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do something."
