Voting System
The article introduces the topic of voting system implemented in the US. More specifically, the author discusses the reasons for replacing the traditional voting approach with more advanced and efficient computerized voting system. In contrary, the lecturer disagrees with the remarks of the writer and points out drawbacks of computer based voting system.
In the reading, the author begins by stating that in traditional voting system there is high chance of accidental votes as voters need to mark in the name of their candidate after going through long sheet of ballot paper. So, the writer insists on use of computerized voting where name of the candidate is easily displayed on the screen. The lecturer, however, disagrees with this point of view. The speaker states that among voters , there are voters who are unable to afford and use computers. Those voters are likely to cast wrong votes due to fear of technology.
The author claims that in addition to eradicaton of human error during vote count, expenses for human resources can be minimized with the use of computerized voting system. Again, the professor believes that this is not accurate. He suggests that the program used for vote counts are created by humans and consequence of so called "human error" is higher in computerized voting. The speaker also adds on by stating that recovery of votes if lost is difficult.
Another reason why the author feels the reason to replace traditional voting approach is the effective use of complex technology in banking and communication sector. The professor in the listening passage is concerned about writer's argument. The speaker states that the technology used for banking and communication sector operates and improves in daily basis and thus is reliable. But the computerized voting system is not use in daily basis and hasn't been improved to be absolutely reliable.
