No computers. Just plain pencil and paper. 

I don't trust any electronic system with anything
as important as the decision which clowns run the
asylum next. 

There is some limited use for smart-card based
*very well designed and debugged system which
are under constant public scrutiny* for a
direct democracy, especially local-scale. 
There must be a law that this channel must 
invalid for top-level decision, effectively 
irreversibly so.

If you think I'm going overboard, then you probably
less familiar with the problem space than you think.
