Vote Safely, and Check Your Work

I Voted?All the polls, predictions, and futures markets come down to 15 or so hours today. It’s still looking close, which means that more than ever, every vote counts. Make sure yours does by following these tips from David Dill on the e-voting experts weblog.

  1. Prepare before going to the polls. Mark your votes in advance on
    the sample ballot that was mailed to you.

    Why?

    • We’re getting reports of long lines during early voting. This

      will make voting faster.

    • A few voters have reported that some offices were not on their
      screens, and that they didn’t discover it until they had returned
      to their home or car. If they had the list with them, any problem
      could have been detected immediately, in time to save their votes
      and perhaps get a witness to the problem.
