India is voting for a new government and I thought it would be a good time for me to capture how the ballot boxes / voting machines from around the world look like.
US - early 1800's
Probably first voting box that kept count of votes instantly? US - late 1800's
Again US - glass ballot box
US - carton box
US - early 1900's
Tribal ballot box called 'Noken' - Papua, Indonesia
Slovenia
Haiti
Since 1988, France made it compulsory to use clear ballot boxes
Late 1800's - New York 
First 'electric' voting machine. Used the punchcard concept
Electronic - swipe your national id card
Similar, slot your ID card and vote
Dual votes - maybe for state and national?
The famous 'pull the lever' machine. Used in New York in 2008.
Turn the dial - and vote!
And our very own - India
