U.S. Capitol Locked Down Amid Escalating Protests

Yes there are. In 2016 I voted in Indiana on a voting machine that was all-electronic. I didn't put my vote down on paper, and the machine didn't produce a paper record for me to examine. After I voted, I asked if I could have a record of my vote, and was told I couldn't.

In 2020, in the same city, I voted by marking a paper ballot and inserting it into a machine which scanned it and output it into a sealed box.

wow that's bad I thought it was all gone but looks like a couple luddites. i just found this source [1] sounds like LA lacks it statewide yikes. sounds like Indiana's law says not until 2029... sarcastically, you know, because it takes that long (more likely they have no funding and refuse to raise taxes/take fed money).

Next-day correction: during the 2016 election, I voted in a different city (about an hour's drive away, but in the same state) from the city that I voted in 2020. I was attending college in the city where I currently live and vote, but at the time I was still registered to vote in my hometown.
