Who can check the votes ?
WHow can we check that the machine is ok ?
Who has the papers, means the real votes to check ?

It is the most important thing.
And theses papers should be publics, as there is no name on it, which means that there are anonymous.
On that way it should be possible to check, really, counting on the side of the vote machine.
