Paperless voting would only affected the election if the machines were linked to a network. There can be other ways to go about it.

Not true. I have seen a non-networked electronic vote counter get hacked. All it took was access to the memory card used to store the vote counts. After the ballots were fed through the counter, a report was generated that showed a different count.

Note the wireless connections and what operating system is being used? This is Rhode Island.
After years of holdups, the state has updated its defunct 20-year-old voting equipment that has been a point of contention year after year. The new machines that will read the paper ballots will now have digital screens displaying directions, and the machines will use wireless technology to transmit results — rather than the dial-up modem technology that had been in place for years.

From the land of the "Hanging Chad" believe me paper only voting can also fuel rigged election claims. Just ask Al Gore!
