Deb Markowitz has it right. The problem is not wth the technology, per se. It's with the poll workers and the users who may not be comfortable or properly trained to use the technology. This is a generational problem, but that does not make it any less important. We do need to assure poll workers are trained and as comfortable as possible.
"Deborah L. Markowitz, the Vermont secretary of state and the president of the National Association of Secretaries of State, said that while there might be some problems in November, she expected them to be limited and isolated.
“The real story of the recent primary races was how few problems there were, considering how new this technology is,” said Ms. Markowitz, a Democrat. “The failures we did see, like in Maryland, Ohio and Missouri, were small and most often from poll workers not being prepared.”"
