javasaurusApparently, voting in Ohio is not necessarily anonymous.
According to this article you can obtain a list of who voted in what order, and you can obtain the list of votes, also in order. All you have to do is line up the two lists!
I suspect this will be used by Diebold (and others) as an argument for not keeping paper records.

Date: 2007-08-23 07:45 pm (UTC)You have these... hold on to your chairs, this is amazing technology here... boxes. And there's a hole at the top, see? You mark something out of a list of somethings, fold the list, put it in the box.
Then before they open the box they give it a good shake. Instant randomization.
No, the results are not instantaneous, yet in a country of 70 million souls they still manage to get election results out overnight, and have managed to do so for 80 years. You'll forgive me if this system of electronic voting here, and how it's shamelessly misused, makes me sick.
