P.P.S. German Wikipedia lists as only exmaple for a machine used in German elections, elections for mayor in one city. While the Bundestag had rushed a law pushing for machines in 2005 or 2006, the Constitutional High Court has ruled this law anti-constitutional in 2009, since then they are banned in Germany. German experts and engineers said that in principle it is impossible to make machines totally safe against manipulation, and that any voting machine always can be manipulated, if you really want to do that. There is no known way to immunize them completely. Well, who wants to argue with Germangineers...?
