CASE Priorities
CASE is following three basic areas of election
concern. The first area is security, the accuracy of the
ballot counting process. Errors happen all the time and
we want to find the sources of these and try to reduce
them. Fraud includes tampering with the process of
counting votes to change the outcome. All methods of
voting are susceptible to fraud, but electronic counting
of ballots is especially worrisome because the fraud can
be widespread, have only a slight effect on any one
machine, and be very difficult to detect.
The second area of concern is making it relatively easy
for every citizan who wants to vote to be able to do so
successfully.
