DC, and some places in NoVA, voting machines are recording wrong votes so they shut them down and went to paper ballots. In Fredericksburg, VA, votes are being thrown out:

Listeners told WTOP that poll workers told them that the voting machines at the community were not working and that votes cast before 8 a.m. would not be counted. Listeners say the center ran out of paper ballots.

all of the candidates were on the same side of the page, and you poke this marker-thing through the hole to fill in the circles.
Same thing again this year. Shippe said this method is called "Inkavote", but the link he provided 4 years ago is dead now.

Yep. InkAVote again. Here, have a new link to a video demo (lavote.net).

I voted once, when I was first eligible to vote in the Bush/Kerry 2004 election. I voted for Kerry being 18 and still uninitiated into the world of lobbying, the finer points of capitalism, etc.
I simply smirked (in my mind) when I stopped to get gas and saw that lady behind me with the "I Voted" sticker.
It's almost like giving a child a smiley face sticker on his English report. Sad at worst. Catastrophically embarrassing at best.
