Denmark, one of the most digitised nations in EU and the world, we, of course, stil vote by paper. (Which I hate because I'm a volunteer at every election and it takes forever to count the votes...)

Paper in Denmark as well.

Paper, with some machines here and there. We had a Referendum in 2015 about implementing online voting, but it didn't go through, because it had only 40% turnout. 72% voted for online voting then. There were still talks, but no one seems to know how to make it secure enough and not be affected by hackers and other stuff.

Nice to see many nations use paper. We do the same here too, making voting machines reliable enough not to be hacked and things like that is almost impossible. If it's digital, it can be hacked.

Having volunteered myself (will most likely do for the upcoming elections as well) I'm pretty fine with it. Electronic voting is still too insecure for me to support it.

Paper in national elections and almost all provinces.

In Buenos Aires there is an electronic system but it still involves marking a paper card as reassurance.
