“There are currently more than 50,000 Sequoia DRE units installed across the country which will be used to securely and accurately record more than 105 million individual votes for candidates and issues this November… There is little doubt that the current generation of DRE systems provides considerable improvements to the voting process, however, what has been left out of the recent public debate is that not only has DRE voting technology been used reliably for more than two decades, but the systems also provide considerable improvements to ballot security and auditability.”
