Whoa! What is this One Touch selection? This would cause
alot of problems for folks with shaky hands, bracelets that hang from peoples
wrists, and inadvertant touching of other candidates, which occurs a significant
amount of the time. If not noticed at the time, then the summary page
would have to be noticed, but they'll think the machine isn't correctly
recording their vote. I hope this is not part of the general release for
everyone. This is obviously just my take on it, but I'd like to hear
whether this is Pennsylvania only, a selection option, my misunderstanding of
the issue, or what. Thanks.

Subject: R6 Straight Party One Touch to
change vote
On the R6 with a Harris County, TX
ballot, I selected straight party.
It properly marked the party I selected, but when I went into the
ballot, I then could change a
vote by simply touching a candidate of a different party. The point I am making is that I did
not have to touch the “Red X’ to remove the vote before I selected a vote for
another candidate. This sounds
like a requirement that Pennsylvania had in changing a vote with “One
Touch”.
