ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Punchscan

Punchscan is a technology used to make sure voting is fair and accurate. It works by scanning a ballot and using a computer to create what is called a "hash tag." This hash tag is like a big number that represents the ballot, and helps to make sure that the ballot is counted correctly. It also makes sure that the same ballot isn't counted more than once. This helps to make sure that everyone's vote counts, and that the election results are honest and accurate.
