Voting System
The article introduces the topic of a voting system implemented in the US. More specifically, the author discusses the reasons for replacing the traditional voting approach with the more advanced and efficient computerized voting system. On the contrary, the lecturer disagrees with the remarks of the writer and points out the drawbacks of a computer-based voting system.
In the reading, the author begins by the statement that in traditional voting system there is a high chance of accidental votes as voters need to mark in the name of their candidate after going through a long sheet of a ballot paper. So, the writer insists on the use of computerized voting where the 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 the addition to eradication of human error during the vote count, expenses for human resources can be minimized with the use of a 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 the 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 the traditional voting approach is the effective use of complex technology in the banking and communication sector. The professor in the listening passage is concerned about the writer's argument. The speaker states that the technology used for the banking and communication sector operates and improves on a daily basis and thus is reliable. But the computerized voting system is not used on daily basis and hasn't been improved to be absolutely reliable.
