Exclusive Paper Ballots with Mandatory Audits
Require exclusive use of paper ballots, mandatory risk-limiting audits, and strict chain-of-custody protocols. Reject unverifiable electronic voting systems.
The Problem
Electronic voting machines have been shown to be vulnerable to hacking, software glitches, and manipulation. Multiple studies and incidents have demonstrated that these systems can be compromised, yet many jurisdictions continue to rely on them as the sole method of recording votes. Without a paper trail, there is no way to conduct a meaningful recount or audit. When anomalies arise, election officials simply point to the machine totals with no independent verification possible. This is unacceptable in a functioning democracy.
The Resolution
“We the People demand the exclusive use of hand-marked paper ballots in all federal, state, and local elections. We call for mandatory risk-limiting audits after every election, strict chain-of-custody protocols for all ballots from printing through counting and storage, and the rejection of any electronic voting system that cannot produce a voter-verified paper audit trail. Every vote must be verifiable, auditable, and secure.”
