    Pretty sure that’s how we do it up on Canada. I think random samples are hand-counted to make sure the machine count is accurate. There’s early voting too so not all just in one day.

      I’ve never used a machine in 40 years of voting in Canada. And if they show up, I won’t use them.

        We fill out a paper, but a machine might scan them based on what OP is saying.

        Then they will spot check it and have the paper backup if needed.
