Texas (at least in my precinct) has the touchscreen machines. We feed a paper card into the slot, choose our options, print to the card, and then place the card ourselves into the scanner. I'm sure there is plenty of fraud in places like Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and El Paso but not so much in the red strongholds like where I live.
I want only paper ballots with no counting machines.
This last election in central Texas, my small county used paper ballots. We filled in the little bubble with black ink pen and then fed it into the slot and got our little I Voted sticker and out the door. I was able to read the results of our county on Wednesday evening after work, so I was glad to see it didn't take weeks to count our votes over here in my neck of the woods. Not sure why those blue states need weeks to count the ballots.

And a truly bipartisan counting process. Paper ballots are great, but if they are still fraudulently counted, the same fraud will continue.

It takes time to print and fill in new ballots so the blues win.
