Electronic Voting
Electronic voting is controversial because recent studies have revealed that hackers can easilly hack into the technology to fix an election. "Hacking Democracy" documented this issue.The documentary investigates the integrity of electronic voting.People do not trust electronic voting machines because of this. In addition, electronic machines do not produce paper records that can be used for record, as well as security and documentation. With no paper record many people are concerned over how a recount would be done if there was a malfunction. Furthermore, If I were in charge of running an election I would not use an electronic voting system. I would increase security and use a physical form of voting.
