While I'm a fan of OSS, it wouldn't do any good. There'd be no validation that the machines were running the same copy of code that the public inspected. And, in the end, still no validation that the votes were accurately tallied.
Mixing electronics and voting is just a bad idea. I'm certainly no technophobe, but these devices just present far too many opportunities to subvert the voting process.
Anyone want to start a voting machine manufacturing business? No doubt someone smarter than me has figured this out - so why are they still in use?
So what is the answer? Certainly not paper ballots. Paper ballots have been used to steal elections since the times of the Romans. Look at how many dead people used paper ballots to get Mayor Daley elected in Chicago.
