BBV: Everyone please read. Rant on...
From now on and hence forth...Do not call it a paper trail...a receipt...an audit trail or whatever else they try to get you to call it.

Call it what it is! A ballot!

Rant off

Thanks in advance.

1. and as if your life depended on it...
for it may.

Vote not with a strip of paper alone, but with your whole life.

2. we had a thread on the semantics of the message last night
here's my take:

real audits require a voter verified paper ballot

6. Folks we've covered this before... <g>
Only ballots have ANY LEGAL standing. "Receipts" are meaningless.
