This New York Times article illustrates the old-fashioned mechanical voting machines that are likely to be used in the city’s elections this year. A bill to let the city use these machines, S4088, passed the State Senate on May 6, and will probably pass the Assembly this week. The bill only applies to the 2013 election. The machines have been in storage for two years. They are criticized because they don’t leave an audit trail. If they malfunction, there is no possibility of a recount.

How EVIL are the NY gerrymander MONSTERS ???
TRILLIONS in Fed, State, local debts.
Even pennies for scanners and paper ballots ???
I like these machines. I volunteered as a poll watcher once and saw them open up the back to read out the vote counts row by row, column by column. They’re neat.
