Voting Machine Technology

Voting machine technology involves electronic or mechanical systems used to record, count, and report votes securely and accurately. Modern voting machines typically include a user interface (like a touchscreen or buttons) for voters to select candidates, and a centralized system that tallies the results electronically. These machines often feature security measures such as paper audit trails, encrypted data, and tamper-evident hardware to ensure integrity. They are designed to improve efficiency, reduce human error, and provide verifiable results, while maintaining transparency and safeguarding voter privacy.
