Did they give you a choice between the touch screens and the old machines?

6. No, there were only two machines set up
Both were touchscreen boxes. I'm right down the road from you in Lake Ridge, but I had the lever voting machine last November.

3. Touch Screen Voting in Richmond
When I heard we were getting new machines, I checked with the City's registrar. The Richmond machines, I was told, do produce a paper record of the votes as a back up.
