Voting Map: Potential for Voter Error
|
The voting machine you'll encounter on Nov. 4 takes the most important right in a democracy — your right to vote — and makes it real. And just like the people who make and use them, machines aren't perfect. DVICE has researched all of the nation's voting machines to tell you what technology you'll be using on Election Day and what potential problems and vulnerabilities it might have. Click here for a detailed explanation of how we rated every state's machines.
About 56% of the U.S. population uses optical-scan machines, which are less error prone than older types like lever machines. Newer electronic touchscreens, giving many states their green color, are the least prone to voter mistakes.
