24. The US is one of about 17 countries

that has some sort of e-voting. The list includes Canada, the UK, Australia, and India amongst others. Info here http://focus.at.org/e-voting/countries

IMO, E-voting needs to be fixed - not done away with. If we went to all paper, vote fraud via ballot theft, destruction, and/or damage would be much easier to accomplish.

There will never be a perfect method but I think that e-voting with a paper trail would give us the ease and speed of technology along with an auditable trail to use if needed.
