I voted in Virginia where they had a punch system at one time. The last Gubenatorial election in Ca. I voted with a punch system too. When I voted last month in Virginia you just darkened circles. All the systems I used were pretty straight forward. Although, I could see potentially a lot of problems that could arise with the punch system but I think its the voters responsibility to make sure its right before they submit it. Plus that person should ask for assistance if they are having problems. After that it should be final unless there was some kind of negligence involved. I believe that its crazy too try to discern how people vote with those chads that dont have any clear indication of the voters intent( i.e. chads with stray marks, pregnant chads, and hanging chads.) There are people that go to the voting poll that cant make up their mind. Anyways, thats my 2 cents.
