2020 Vision.
With the next presidential election coming before we know it, Indiana’s Secretary of State Connie Lawson is continuing the efforts she began after 2016 in terms of assuring voter confidence. Last week she garnered $6 million from the State of Indiana to purchase voter-verifiable paper trail equipment that will show voters who they selected before officially casting the ballot. That will only cover about 10% of all Hoosier voting machines, so counties are going to have to figure out the remainder of funding by 2029. Meanwhile, Hamilton, Boone, Hendricks and Bartholomew counties will be the first to receive the voter verifiable paper trails next year.
