The search is on for new machines to replace Maryland’s touch screen voting system.
Maryland voters raised concerns in 2004 after the state moved to electronic touch-screen voting machines that eliminated paper ballots and still raises suspicions about "was my vote counted."
The General Assembly set 2016 as the goal for instituting a paper ballot optical scanning system.
They will now go through a selection process and then have to do a very extensive public outreach to train the voters, Board of Elections workers, and poll workers.
The switch to paper ballots was delayed until now because of limited funding.
