Voting Integrity and Verification Act of 2005

The Voting Integrity and Verification Act of 2005 (S. 330) proposes changes to federal election laws to ensure that all electronic voting systems produce a physical backup of every vote. Under this bill, voters would be able to review and verify a private paper version of their ballot for accuracy before officially casting it. These individual paper records would then serve as the permanent legal record for any manual audits or recounts, providing a physical trail to verify electronic results.
