Explanation:

To determine the voting requirement of all states, we analyze each option:

• "Ballots should be electronic": Not all states require electronic ballots (some use paper).
• "Parties make the ballots": Ballots are typically managed by election officials, not parties.
• "Paper ballots are not allowed": Many states allow paper ballots.
• "Ballots should be secret": The secret ballot (Australian ballot) is a universal voting requirement across all U.S. states to ensure voter privacy and prevent coercion.

Answer:

D. Ballots should be secret.
