SEC. 301. VOTING SYSTEMS STANDARDS. (a) Requirements.--Each voting system used in an election for Federal office shall meet the following requirements: (2) Audit capacity.-- (A) In general.--The voting system shall produce a record with an audit capacity for such system. (B) Manual audit capacity.-- (i) The voting system shall produce a permanent paper record with a manual audit capacity for such system. (ii) The voting system shall provide the voter with an opportunity to change the ballot or correct any error before the permanent paper record is produced. (iii) The paper record produced under subparagraph (A) shall be available as an official record for any recount conducted with respect to any election in which the system is used.

Under the Code of Virginia, the State Board of Elections must approve any mechanical or electronic voting system or equipment before it can be used by any locality. Each system must successfully complete three distinct levels of testing: Qualification testing (testing of hardware and software that may be conducted by Independent Testing Authority); Certification testing (to ensure it meets all applicable requirements of the Code of Virginia); and, Acceptance testing (conducted by the locality to assure it meets their needs and is identical to the certified system). “Independent” Testing: “Independent” Testing Done by ITAs paid by vendors No vulnerability analysis No source code analysis “Program testing can be used to show the presence of bugs, but never to show their absence!” - Edsger W. Dijkstra (Note: the machine in the video passed all the tests just fine…)Joint Subcommittee Studying Voting Equipment : Joint Subcommittee Studying Voting Equipment Initiated in 2004 Bill to add 2 citizen members with “computer security expertise” (Feb 2005) 5 Meetings (through Jan 2006) Remarkable citizen participation Testimony from Justin Moore, Paco HopeVirginia Bills: Virginia Bills SB424 (Devolites-Davis), HB1243 (Tim Hugo): Requires voter-verifiable paper record Random audits Disclosure of machine source code No wireless capability Proposed in January 2006, held over to 2007 legislative sessionKevin Shelley (then Secretary of State of California): Kevin Shelley (then Secretary of State of California) The core of our American democracy, members, is the right to vote. And implicit in that right is the notion that that vote be private, that vote be secure, and that vote be counted as it was intended when it was cast by the voter. I think what we're encountering is a pivotal moment in our democracy where all that is being called into question - the privacy of the vote, the security of the vote, and the accuracy of the vote. It troubles me, and it should trouble you. … You know it’s very interesting that, recently when I made the decision to require a paper audit trail, a number of county officials very respectfully denounced them and a number of vendors, many of whom are represented behind me, said it wasn't necessary, said their machinery was secure. At the same time, a number of those within the community, the voter advocacy community, have oft times alleged Armageddon if we don't make immediate changes. Well you know, I don’t know who’s right. I'm like the average voter. I don’t know. And because I don’t know, I want the confidence that a paper trail provides.
