Maybe, I am not so sure that this is an actual phenomenon or just a perceived one. I, for one, think the pro's outweigh any cons, I like the the idea of being reassured that my vote got counted correctly and that there isn't any fuckery going on. I would like to have actually seen the number go up by one after I put my ballot in the machine. I can only speak for myself and say that "bandwagon voting" would have no affect on me (I voted for Johnson/Weld knowing full well they would never win).
