E-vote critics the real threat to democracy
Oh, really? I tend to believe that self-serving, self-appointed pressure groups seeking to thwart the legitimate decisions of an elected government and Dáil by misrepresenting the truth and causing confusion are a greater threat to democracy.
ICTE advocate a dual vote counting system: electronic and current manual paper system. They call for accuracy, yet where disputes arise they want the paper system to have primacy despite such inherent flaws as the random selection of surplus transfers and simple human error. They want to reject the new, accurate and tested system. Is this is not a Luddite mentality?
