The old lever-style voting machines are gone, replaced with electronic systems including scanners and computers, but a new study contends some of the newer voting equipment is already in need of replacement and upgrades. 

Larry Norden is the deputy director of the Democracy Program at the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of law. He says 33 states need to replace their voting machines by 2020.
