I think we should shift to inexpensive computers, networked, firewalled, and give voters PIN #s when they register. The PIN number gives you the access to a clear, simple, large-font, touch-screen electroballot; ther system never records who voted fro whom, only who voted, period. The ballots are transmitted the minute you click on "OK?" after reviewing your choices, tallied instantly, down tot he last individual. You can vote from anywhere with a TCPIP connection. With a few other safeguards in place such a system would consistently provide >99% accuracy.

And it might be Republ;ican proof to boot!
