TURMEL: Computer Vote Fraud Prevention on Agenda   
      
   Jct: At the last meeting of the Advisory Committee of   
   Politicla Parties, I handed out the following elementary   
   suggestion to prevent computer vote fraud.   
      
   Oct 23 2014   
   Greg Essensa,   
   Chief Electoral Officer for Ontario,   
   and   
   Advisory Committee of Political Parties   
      
   Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:   
      
   With the recent exposure of vote fraud in the United States,   
   I've given much thought on how the voter can be sure his   
   vote went to the right candidate despite the possibility of   
   secret vote-flipping software without having to change any   
   code! By changing the ballot!!   
      
   Preventing computer miscounting can be guaranteed in the   
   following way:   
      
   When I get to the poll, I pick a blank envelope with a   
   numbered ballot out of a barrel, randomizing that element   
   too.   
      
   The ballot's ID number could be on a detachable stub for me   
   to take home.   
      
   Then, election evening, all the numbers are posted online so   
   I can check to see that my ID number matches my vote.   
      
   Should it not, I could complain about the discrepancy.   
   Should someone ask for proof, I could produce the carbon   
   copy of the ballot.   
      
   So a carbon copy ID-numbered ballot eliminates all chance of   
   the computer mis-counting!   
      
   Hoping you institute a sure-vote ballot, I am   
   Sincerely yours   
   John C. Turmel   
      
   JCT: I will be at the next meeting on May 15 2015 and do   
   want to make sure that my concern will be dealt with.
