Americans should use more paper ballots, instead of using methods that people don’t understand and cannot prove is accurate

It varies a lot by state. Washington primarily uses mail-in paper ballots. I love never having to visit a polling location. (In-person voting is an option here, but everyone I know votes by mail).

I don't understand why anyone would want to vote in person. I have always voted via mail-in ballot.

I think the most obvious use case for in-person voting is for homeless people. But there are also people who just like it better.
