The Computer Ate Their Vote - Voters Tell Their Story on Film

We used this video to help persuade our lawmakers to pass
a verified voting bill in our state:

You can always make your own election disaster home movies,
slap it up on a website, and email the link to your lawmakers.

Videos like this are embarrassing to politicians, and
also the media likes them

See what the Carteret County Coalition for Verified Voting
has to say about paperless voting;
several of its members were among the 4,500 who lost their vote
in the 2004 General Election.

North Carolina. November 2004 -
More than 4,500 votes were irretrievably lost in
coastal Carteret County on paperless touchscreen machines,
in November of 2004. The machines used during early voting had
a capacity issue, and the machines allowed over 4,400 people
to cast ballots that the machine was not recording.

Since there was no paper ballot, the results could not
be determined.
