agreed 100%.
BTW, for you specifically and the little woman, and anyone else you know, tell them to definitely use paper ballots in the St. Louis area -- it's not that the touchscreens are cooked, but they take longer and if turnout is what we're expecting, insisting on using a touchscreen will lead to long lines, which in turn leads to people not bothering to vote. There's not even a requirement that you use one of those little booth things with the paper ballot, either -- you can do it against the wall, on a friend's back, on the floor, anywhere you can find space if you don't mind the relative lack of privacy.
Pass it on -- anything we can do to keep lines shorter is positive and in a state like MO that is expected to be very close, every single vote counts...
