Comment : | - Whether the voting system collects votes electronically or via scanning votes initially marked by the voter on paper, in the event of a recount, the count should be performed using the paper ballots and human tabulators. Recounting the ballot images that were stored in the scanner during voting, or even feeding the ballots through the same type of scanner a second time are not acceptably independent checks of the accuracy of the recorded vote totals.
