TrueVoteMD.org is a non-partisan, grass-roots organization of Maryland citizens who are deeply concerned about the
integrity of the State's election process, mainly due to
the introduction of electronic voting equipment which fails to provide
voters with a printed paper record of their votes. Without this voter-verified printed ballot, there is no way
to audit elections to ensure that votes are correctly recorded and
counted, or to conduct a meaningful, independent recount.
Through
non-partisan public education, grassroots organizing, litigation,
research and legislation, we are working to make Maryland's voting
system accurate, verifiable, and fully transparent.

We
are dedicated to preserving the integrity of our elections. By their
nature, computers are inherently subject to programming error,
equipment malfunction, and malicious tampering.
To ensure transparent, fair elections and to ensure voter confidence, our voting system must provide a voter-verified paper audit trail.
This is the only way to ensure: - accurate recording of each vote;
- the possibility of manual recounts;
- a viable audit trail to verify computer tallies.
