Punch card machines have higher error rates no matter who is using them.

That would seem to be at odds with the facts, assuming this is fact;
"For example, where punch card machines were used, the error rate in the low-income districts was 7.7 percent compared to 2 percent in the more affluent districts, a gap of 5.7 percentage points."

It appears that irregardless of the method, low-income districts have higher error rates than higher income districts.
