00:00And I would hope that every Republican would.

00:03So it costs exactly 8% of what the machines cost.

00:07These machines, they've got something going.

00:09It's called watermark.

00:11It's impossible to copy, impossible to cheat.

00:14It's actually hard to believe that a piece of paper is highly sophisticated.

00:19But it's watermark, and it's very...

00:22It's amazing, actually, when you see it. You can't cheat.

00:25But if you went to paper ballots and same-day voting...

00:30Thank you for your help. We did very well in Georgia.

00:32It was very nice.

00:34But some of these states, if you had a close election...

00:38One other thing, just before we leave, I think you should do this.

00:42If... I mean, for safety and security and for the good of our nation,

00:48you should do it anyway, regardless, even if it costs 10 times more.

00:51But it actually costs you just a tiny fraction.

00:55If you went to paper ballots and you're voting...

00:58And I would hope that every Republican would.

01:01So it costs exactly 8% of what the machines cost.

01:05These machines, they've got something going.

01:07They get business. It's amazing.

01:11So paper ballots... And paper is very sophisticated today.

01:14Paper, it's called watermark.

01:16It's impossible to copy, impossible to cheat.

01:20It's actually hard to believe that a piece of paper is highly sophisticated.

01:24But it's watermark, and it's very...

01:27It's amazing, actually, when you see it.

01:29You can't cheat.

01:31But if you went to paper ballots and same-day voting,

01:35and if you went to voter ID,

01:38and also one other thing, you want a proof of citizenship.

01:41Those four things. Proof of citizenship, voter ID,

01:44paper ballots, one-day voting.

01:46And if you went to two-day voting or three-day voting.

01:48But some of these states, you go and you had 64 days.

01:51You know, California just finished up just a short while ago.

01:55They were voting a week and a half ago.

02:00They're trying to finish them up.

02:02And other states, too.

02:04They were weeks after the election.

02:06I mean, if that were a close election,

02:08you'd have to wait for weeks and weeks and weeks.

02:10You got finished fast, Brian.

02:12Thank you for your help. We did very well in Georgia.

02:14It was very nice.

02:16But some of these states, if you had a close election,

02:19you wouldn't know who won.

02:21And then, you know, once that happens,

02:23then you really never know who won.

02:25But you would save tens of millions of dollars.

02:29Forgetting about right, wrong, and security, safety,

02:33our country, our Constitution, and all of this.

02:36Number one, you'd have a much safer election.

02:38Number two, everybody, you'd know the results of your election

02:41by 10 o'clock. Everybody.

02:43It's a beautiful system. It's boxes of 5,000.

02:46Boom, boom.

02:48And you can go and examine each box.

02:50It's so simple and so good.

02:53I did ask Elon because he knows more about computers than anybody.

02:57And I said, what do you think of the voting system?

03:00He said, computers are not meant for voting.

03:03It's just not a good...

03:05It's too many transactions taking place too quickly.

03:09It's just not...

03:11And I've gone to the best people,

03:13the smartest computer minds from MIT, from others.

03:16My uncle was a professor for 41 years at MIT.

03:20And a brilliant guy.

03:22And I got to know a lot of the people up there.

03:25And they will tell you that the most secure way

03:28that you can secure the election,

03:30and probably the fastest way,

03:32because there can be very little hanky-panky,

03:35is paper ballots. Can you believe it?

03:38I hope, Sarah, that certainly the Republican governors...

03:43But if you want to save a lot of money,

03:45you go to paper ballots.

03:47It'll cost you 8% of what the costs are now.

03:50And that's based on a good deal for machines.

03:53And then when you go through the days and weeks and months of waiting,

03:57France had mail-in ballots.

04:00Any time you have mail-in ballots, you're going to have fraud.

04:03Without question.

04:05And France had it, and they went back to paper ballots.

04:08And I saw their election, and their election was over at 9 o'clock,

04:12and their numbers came in at 10.05.

04:15And there were no complaints.

04:17They had a winner, they had a loser.

04:1939 million votes.

04:21And it was done.

04:23We're one of the only people that has now mail-in voting.

04:26One of the only countries that has mail-in voting.

04:29Don't miss out.
