Paper ballots.

One advantage of being stuck in the digital 1990s.

Unfortunately. I live in Canada and still didn't receive my documents to vote. So, my vote will involuntarily go to the AfD.

Why would it go with the AFD? Makes no sense

This is unacceptable.

I agree. I wrote a complaint to the authorities.

I hope that the CDU gets some sort of punishment because it was them pushing the election so early. Remember when they wanted to elect before christmas even? Such a joke this party...

We'll see. I'm really saddened what is happening worldwide. And not being able to do my part is really frustrating.

is it still a hand count? paper ballots are often scanned for counting (like mcq exam papers etc.), at which point people like doge's ethan shaotran - who developed "ballotproof" and later won an xAi grant from musk for his work generating credible data sets - can interfere.

Yes hand count. Transparent with mutual checks.

sorry, the grant money was from openAI - 100K to develop a "scheduling assistant" called Spark.
