I was at a polling place to vote (my first time :D) when I overheard a conversation:

Worker 1: There's a problem with the electronic voting machine. It hasn't been correctly counting the votes this morning.

Worker 2: How many people have used it?

Worker 1: Probably about 30.

Worker 2: Oh well there's a procedure for that.


So now 30 votes have basically been thrown away. I chose to use paper because I am wary of this new voting tech.
