If a machine reads the ballots does that mean all the forms are the same?. As I mentioned before in Australia all the Ballots are not set up similar.

Yes, the ballots are all the same. However, that does not matter. All you need is barcode formatting along one edge to tell the machine how the specific ballot is formatted. They do this for multiple choice tests on "scantron" forms, read by machines, now, with multiple Versions of the test as an anti-cheating measure. It would certainly work for ballots.

I guess the US needs to do much more as we dont even know if george W Bush is in fact the true president of the US

It is a well established fact. Al Gore conceded the election almost 4 years ago. There is absolutely no doubt possible that George W. Bush is the current President of the USA.
