38. The problem with that is that it could open the door to vote buying.
The receipts should be verified by the voter and placed in a ballot box for a later hand recount to confirm the digital tally.

I, for one, would like to see a Voter ID issued with a number that can be confirmed in a publicly available database that shows how that number voted for candidates and propositions. This also doesn't get around possible vote buying. Maybe we just make vote buying a severe felony and live with the consequences.

Any non-verifiable e-voting system is for suckers.
