(24,934 posts)10 years ago in Pa. voting on an ES&S voting machine that had no paper trail. I believe they all have paper trails now, but I could be wrong about that.
I do not like ES&S voting machines, several years in 3 states the exit polling did not match the machine count on those machines.

(3,189 posts)and once afterwards to verify their reliability. There are a lot of steps of accountability they go through to insure election integrity. Many counties will allow interested members of the public observe that process.
A little over 95 percent of voting machines now have a paper trail, I learned from a report on NPR.
Counties buy their own equipment and it varies from county to county. The state certifies a few that they will allow to be used in the state, then the counties seek demonstrations and bids from their vendors.
