Many state and local organizations have figured out a way for people to vote 
anonymously.  It usually involves reaching into some sort of covered box amd 
moving a specifically shaped object to another location.  That is, the round 
ball represents candidate x and the cube represents candidate y.  You move 
the appropriate ball, or some variation thereof.
