A Senate bill that would have required Maryland to use a paper ballot voting system was sent back to a Senate committee this week, effectively killing the measure, the bill’s sponsor said.
“Basically, it means it’s a dead issue,” said Senate Majority Leader Edward Kasemeyer, a Columbia Democrat, who sponsored the bill.
The bill, as originally proposed, would have required the state to use voting equipment that produces a paper record that allows voters to check their ballots before casting votes. It also would have required whatever voting machines the state uses to produce a paper record that could be audited for accuracy.
