> I don't think so. Think of all the people who have difficulty with basic computer/phone tasks, either because of knowledge or accessibility issues. Do you think all the steps to securely cast votes with an electronic system are going to be easier and more accessible for them?

I don’t think an in-person electronic voting system needs to be any more difficult than current paper ballots.
