You’ll notice from the photo above, that they used paper ballots in Greece’s referendum. I suspect that had the referendum been held in the US using electronic voting machines, the results would have been vastly different. Democracy is dead in America, but it’s nice to know it is alive in Greece.
According to a report here, more than 61 percent of Greek citizens voted “NO” on continued EU-imposed austerity measures. Bravo for the Greeks.
