Electronic voting machines are just like those fancy cartoon-themed slot machines at your County Fair. You pull the handle, and it makes a bunch of lights and sounds to make you feel like you accomplished something, and then you win a prize, which is a wooden nickel or a gumball or a three-cent sticker that you can wear a few hours until it falls off.
The only difference is that the sticker says "I Voted"
