Whether you vote with a paper ballot that you hand mark or a voting machine that produces a paper ballot, it’s counted the same.
After the machine prints your ballot, you can verify that it’s correct. If you find any issues or mistakes (before casting your vote) you can make corrections by getting help from a poll worker.

Whether you vote with paper or plastic, they are counted equally! Hand marked paper ballots and voting machine ballots go through the same count.
