Summary

Electrographic Vote-Recorder, Thomas Edison's first patent. Permitted a "yes" or "no" vote via one of two switches. Washington congressmen were not interested in the device and the invention was a failure. (1869)中文(臺灣):電子投票紀錄器,湯瑪斯·愛迪生的第一項專利,經由裝置上的開關「是」與「否」立即進行投票。當時美國國會的參眾兩會議員對於這個裝置完全不感興趣,由於傳統投票方法可以臨時改變其他議員的投票結果,這項裝置不利於議員的政治利益,也可以算是一項失敗的發明。
