A week after the primary election was plagued by human error and technical glitches, Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. (R) called yesterday for the state to scrap its $106 million electronic voting apparatus and revert to a paper ballot system for the November election.
"When in doubt, go paper, go low-tech," he said.

Now, I'm not against using computers to make the counting faster, pero dapat magkaroon muna ng housecleaning at tanggalin ang mga COMELEC dagdag bawas operators (at mga officials na tumulong sa pag-coverup ng operations nila).
Kasi MAS MABILIS dayain ang election, at MAS MAHIRAP mahuli kapag computerized ang botohan at gusto ng admin dayain ito (dahil may COMELEC insiders sila with unsupervised access to the system).
Sa pagkakaalam ko, wala ni isang dagdag bawas operator sa COMELEC or Military noong 2004 ang naparusahan o nakulong. Pati si Garci lusot. Kung hindi lumabas ang GLORIAGATE tapes, malamang Commissioner Garcillano pa rin ang tawag natin sa kanya.

mlq3 discussed something like this before. I suggested an even simpler solution. Let's disregard the right to privacy issue and make voting open for everybody to see. Let the voter write his vote on the tally sheet himself in full view of evreybody concerned. This privacy issue is what makes cheating so easy. How can one switch votes if everybody is watching? Wla din dagdag-bawas as the counting is continuous. At the end of the day, all watchers and officals just have to sign the sheet. Cheating will also be prevented during the canvassing. Reports per precinct can be texted to Manila. Simple problems do not require complicated solutions.
yeah, maybe sa kaso natin, dapat ngang gawin nang open ang botohan, para mas mahirap dayain.
