Why shouldn't they be? Our voting system could use some improvements and I am open to just about all ideas. Why are you being closed minded? :kisswink:

For me a receipt isn't going to magically make my vote secure but it would be nice to have a record of exactly what i voted on, especially in the local races where there is a large variation from year to year.
:nod:

We have mail in here in Washington, and they give you a little tear off stub to check if your vote has been counted.

Unfortunately it doesn't tell you who, but with the technology today, they should be able to do what you ask for, by giving a record of how that ballot was tabulated.

That's against most state constitutions. And with good reason.

Providing a receipt that records an individual's vote to a candidate provides a method to literally buy votes. With a secret ballot, buying votes doesn't have the pay off because there's no way to verify if the person you paid to vote a certain way actually followed through.

Never actually looked into it before but that makes sense. Learned something new. :thumb:
