The one we'll never find is one which maintains the same number of voters as the pollbook, but simply puts some votes in the wrong bin.

And remember, getting the paper ballot on these touch screens, while critically important, doesn't do anything if we don't use it to audit properly.

Now that we are making headway on requiring paper ballots, guess what I'm seeing resistance on now? They HATE the idea of properly auditing. They don't even ask what "proper auditing" is -- I'm hearing statements like "we should ONLY look at the paper ballots in case of a recount" and "we should ONLY look at them if the discrepancy could change the results of the election. (Wrong on both counts -- electronic vote-rigging would simply make sure it is beyond the recount spread and when you audit, if you find a discrepancy you pull more records to audit.)
