Hey, good news

Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. (R) has embraced a legislative proposal to abandon the state's touch-screen voting machines for the coming election, in which he is a candidate, and to lease others that provide a paper record to verify results.

Good to hear. I think not having a paper-trail is absolutely inexcusable. Touch screens with "receipt" printers would be optimal, I think.

Of course, since Ehrlich is a republican though, I'll assume this is some evil master plan.
