What is the most secure way to vote?

Thea Brodkin (Voter Service Chair) gives expert video advice on: What should I look for when filling out a ballot?; What should I look for when using a touch-screen voting machine?; How can I ensure that my provisional ballot is counted? and more...

I think they're all secure, but the most secure one is the one you're most confident in. If you're confident - and they're people that say "Why can't we vote by the internet?" That may be something in the future we will be voting by the internet. I do all my banking on the internet. We use ATM machines all the time, we should be able to make voting machines so reliable and accurate that people wouldn't be afraid of them either. A lot of it has to do with verification of you are who are marking that ballot, so the signature is important, you must sign the roster book, you must sign the envelope on a mail-in ballot. Same thing if you vote at early-voting centers you check if you're a registered voter, you sign a card so they have your signature so if there is any problems - It's actually swearing, it's an affidavit when you sign one of those things.
