I just voted in Ohio a few days ago and there is a paper receipt that gets printed and stored inside the machine. The voter never touches the paper receipt and can't add their own into the machine. But, I'm not sure what happens to the discarded ones. And coould real votes be discarded?

Second, is it possible to hack into the machine somehow and change the numbers, either at the machine by a person, or in the software by saying for ever 2 votes the person I don't want to win gets, it will automatically add 1 vote to the 'good' guy total in addition to all of the other votes they get.

I like electronic voting, but I agree that there needs to be oversight by anybody in the public into every aspect of it.
