I just do not see the difference. Even the commission pointed out that, because of the mixing of the votes through transfers, one will not achieve the same result if one does parallel testing. Therefore, I do not understand the argument for it. The last US election made use of chits and chads and guys looking at bits of paper. This is what we are trying to get away from. There is no requirement for a paper receipt for a vote.
