Can Voters Detect Errors on Their Printed Ballots? Absolutely
摘要:
选民在选票标记设备(BMD)上进行选择后,是否可以检测到打印选票中的恶意更改,这一问题仍有争议。在这项研究中,我们改变了选民的选票上的选票后,他们作出了选择的BMD。然后,我们要求他们检查他们的选票,看看他们过去投票的名单是否有任何变化。总体准确度非常高。参与者总共观看了1440场比赛,其中总共有4个错误,因此总准确率为99.8%。参与者能够以近乎完美的准确性进行投票,无论选票长度,选票类型,改变种族的数量和改变种族的位置。检测性能非常稳健。我们的结论是,有了适当的方向和资源,选民可以接近完美的检测器的选票变化后,打印的纸质选票与BMD投票。随着BMD使用的持续增长,这一发现对投票社区具有重要意义。研究现在应该集中在确定行政和行为方法,将提示和鼓励选民检查他们的BMD生成的选票之前,他们把他们的投票箱。
英文摘要:
There is still debate on whether voters can detect malicious changes in their printed ballot after making their selections on a Ballot Marking Device (BMD). In this study, we altered votes on a voter's ballot after they had made their selections on a BMD. We then required them to examine their ballots for any changes from the slate they used to vote. Overall accuracy was exceptionally high. Participants saw 1440 total contests, and of those 1440, there were a total of 4 errors, so total accuracy was 99.8%. Participants were able to perform with near-perfect accuracy regardless of ballot length, ballot type, number of altered races, and location of altered races. Detection performance was extremely robust. We conclude that with proper direction and resources, voters can be near-perfect detectors of ballot changes on printed paper ballots after voting with a BMD. This finding has significant implications for the voting community as BMD use continues to grow. Research should now focus on identifying administrative and behavioral methods that will prompt and encourage voters to check their BMD-generated ballots before they drop them in the ballot box.
