as you often do.  I don't have any direct source other than media interviews with participants at the time the decision was being made including a GA Tech computer researcher who was a civvie advisory (non-voting) member of the committee studing the available technology, the same committee that made the final recommendation to the legislature.  He argued publicly for and wrote opinion pieces explaining what was going on and advocating for the hand marked ballots as the ONLY foolproof system that could not possibly be successfully hacked because a handcount of the actual ballots, not a digitally printed ballot, was always available.  The Democrats advocated for that system but the final committee vote was a party line vote for the digital printed ballot system.  Now if you know somebody on the committee that disputes that let us know who it is.  We all need to know because, like the preacher who claimed that in 40 years of marriage he and his wife had never had an argument, he or she is lying to you.
