The House Committee on Elections and Elected Officials heard bills Wednesday that would both loosen and tighten election laws in Missouri.
Two similar bills, HB 842 and HB 738, would require hand-marked paper ballots be used and not just electronic voting machines.
According to the sponsor of HB 842, Rep. Justin Hill, R-Lake St. Louis, only a few counties don’t have voting machines that accept hand-marked paper ballots. The lawmakers said this is mostly due to lack of funding for new machines.
“In a person’s vote and the ability to audit that vote with humans and not machines, there’s very little doubt that’s able to be cast in that election if we have physical pieces of paper marked by hand,” Hill said.
