This is seriously broken

Ohio has managed to eliminate the secret ballot with their open records laws and voting machines:

Two Ohio activists have discovered that e-voting machines made by Election Systems and Software
and used across the country produce time-stamped paper trails that
permit the reconstruction of an election’s results–including allowing
voter names to be matched to their actual votes.
….

Computer scientists and security experts say restricting the public’s
access to e-voting paper trails by tinkering with open records laws is
insufficient–it doesn’t protect against, for instance, an insider
perusing the ballots and reconstructing them.

They do say paper trails are necessary to provide a physical check
on what could be a buggy or maliciously programmed machine. But they
offer three suggestions: deleting the time stamp, not keeping a list
showing in which order people vote, and adding a paper slicer and
shuffler to randomize how the physical audit trail is recorded.

Could I have my paper ballot back, please?
