In California we have electronic voting machines that are basically glorified printers. You go through the vote flow, then it prints your ballot and you can verify it’s correct before it goes in the ballot box. All the upside of electronic voting and none of the downsides.

Even human vote counters can mistakenly read a hand filled ballot.

You make your selection, receive a print out which has your chooses visible on kt, put that into the counting machine which is next to a table where you get your I voted sticker so it’s monitored for tampering. They then take your print out and put it in a box for manual recounts if called for.
That is fine, and a good usecase
