Verdana;color:black'>TrueMajorityACTION started calling attention to the
dangers of paperless electronic voting back in 2004 with our "Computer
Ate My Vote" campaign. Many more states now require paper records of our
votes, but still an alarming 40% of ballots will be cast on electronic voting
machines this November<sup>2</sup>. Even <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Maryland</st1:place></st1:State>'s Republican Governor is now
calling for a return to paper ballots<sup>3</sup>. We'll keep working with
our partners in the movement to make sure all states eventually require a
voter-verified paper record of every vote. In the meantime, though, the
Boxer-Dodd plan is a good backup.</span></font><font size=2 color=black
