For instance, I'm in PA (sigh, although I love where I live), and there are 3 in-person methods: Optical Scan, DRE (Direct Recording Electronic), and Paper Ballots. I voted by Paper Ballot in my rather small little township.
How is this determined state by state? Would it not make sense if in-person voting used the same method everywhere?
No, the people seem to be the least concern to the politicians. Perhaps we should all pool what little money we have left and get ourself a 'people's lobbyist.'
