And based on the weight, that's how we know who you voted for. But that's ridiculous. To you it is, but back when this was invented, it was a way to vote and keep producing applesauce. You may not know who the candidates are, but if you know what you like, you can make a reasonable vote. We've got a bank of levers here for you to flip to the yes side or the no side.
Most people have an opinion on that.
The ball has fallen in an appropriate slot for the candidate who most resembles your profile in these choices you made up here. We should put new names on those bottom slots. But if you don't like the result you can reset your levers and do it over. People would spend all day in the polling place. When they began wagering on where the ball would drop, the machine was taken out of election service and used for profit elsewhere.
