No sign anywhere that anyone is looking at this AT ALL. It gets mentioned and then dropped like yesterday's weather report.
All I can say is that if I used an ATM and it didn't give me a printed receipt, I'd be checking my account daily AND calling the bank. When I went in to vote, I looked at the butterfly ballot (it's the only kind I've ever used and I've been voting for 2 decades,) I checked the number on the printed book-ballot to see what numbers were assigned to my choice for president and for senator, I then punched my ballot and pulled the punch card out of the machine to make sure the holes were actually were I wanted them to be.
If someone had told me 10 years ago that I'd be doing that to make sure that my vote *might* count, I'd have thought they were crazy. I'm relieved to live in a non-swing state.

I put a longer follow-up elsewhere about various other tracking/activist sites, but I can't put my hands on it right now.
