Let your fingers do the voting, maybe

Article Abstract:

Proponents of telephone voting claim that it would dramatically increase voter turnout and reduce the cost of elections and the risk of fraud and the potential threat to privacy could be minimized. Telephone voting has been under scrutiny for many years, and recent developments in communications technology may increase the possibility of it becoming a reality. The public is now well-adjusted to banking and shopping by telephone, and should not be put off at the thought of voting by telephone. The Voting by Phone Foundation is hoping to get the issue on the Nov 1992 ballot in Boulder, CO, which could become the first US city to test a telephone-voting system. Critics contend that electronic voting would increase the risk of large scale fraud. The possibility of finding out how an individual voted by tracing the telephone number or cracking the voter identification code is also worrisome.
