E-voteing is a bad idea, people are getting into just as important systems all over the place, that's why you NEVER use the same password on two sites.

2019-12-08 18:21:08 UTC  

Here's the problem - the same thing happens with paper ballots - you just have no means of knowing when it occurs.

2019-12-08 18:21:37 UTC  

and I don't trust the govenrmet to do any of that closed system crap, they are just going to buy off the shelf gear and plug it in 9 times out of 10.

2019-12-08 18:22:10 UTC  

but paper ballots can only be changed by being there, a computer can be changed form almost anywhere.

2019-12-08 18:22:39 UTC  

Unfortunately you're right. It's almost impossible to create a perfect system.

2019-12-08 18:22:52 UTC  

so stick with the one that doesn't scale.

2019-12-08 18:23:04 UTC  

I wouldn't even mind paper ballots if all states could agree on voter registration and ID requirements.

2019-12-08 18:23:40 UTC  

that's one of the reasons we have the electoral college.

2019-12-08 18:23:49 UTC  

At the very least, create a state database of registered voters and eliminate votes from the deceased.

2019-12-08 18:23:59 UTC  

if FL is screwing stuff up it's only FLs votes that are getting messed up, not everyone's.

2019-12-08 18:24:17 UTC  

again, that is a state level thing, not a federal thing.

2019-12-08 18:25:53 UTC  

True. Seriously though, check out the latest Defcon on voting boxes. It's eye opening what happens when you let states manage their electronic voting boxes. The hardware/software/configuration should be mandated at the Federal level.

2019-12-08 18:27:19 UTC  

electronic voteing should not be a thing in the first place

2019-12-08 18:27:35 UTC  

yea i was going to say the same thing

2019-12-08 18:27:37 UTC  

should be all paper

2019-12-08 18:27:52 UTC  

I understand how it seems like a good idea on first glance

2019-12-08 18:28:06 UTC  

it just adds more points of failure

2019-12-08 18:28:19 UTC  

and more holes that can be discovered and then exploited

2019-12-08 18:28:22 UTC  

well it makes more single points of failure.

2019-12-08 18:28:34 UTC  

and that's the important part.

2019-12-08 18:29:18 UTC  

ballots should be collected in paper only, and nationally there should be a Voter ID that is required upon showing up to the ballot. Then all the paper votes should be counted multiple times by different parties to ensure accuracy

2019-12-08 18:29:38 UTC  

yes

2019-12-08 18:29:42 UTC  

all of that.

2019-12-08 18:29:47 UTC  

and then...

2019-12-08 18:29:49 UTC  

after all of this

2019-12-08 18:29:57 UTC  

if trump loses you just make him winner anyways

2019-12-08 18:30:00 UTC  

<:hypersmugon:544638648721604608>

2019-12-08 18:30:06 UTC  

If trump loses oh lawd

2019-12-08 18:30:07 UTC  

if you want to have a automatic counter you can also have that to check against your human counters.

2019-12-08 18:30:21 UTC  

Clown world accelerated

2019-12-08 18:30:36 UTC  

what would be SUPPER funny is if he also wins the "popular vote" this time around, like to the point where they can't say the crap they are saying now.

2019-12-08 18:30:45 UTC  

that would be great

2019-12-08 18:31:06 UTC  

but i wouldnt put it past places like California and New York and etc... to fudge some numbers around

2019-12-08 18:31:18 UTC  

but eves them saying about the popular vote, that wasn't the game we were playing so the fact that you did better there is meaningless.

2019-12-08 18:31:20 UTC  

and also to have illegals voting

2019-12-08 18:32:06 UTC  

yah, that is the largest problem, but also one that is protected against by the electoral college, and one would think the locals wouldn't take kindly to haveing their vote wasted in that way.

2019-12-08 18:32:20 UTC  

this is why the Left doesnt want the citizenship question to be on the 2020 census... because they know that if all of the illegals are subtracted from their population total... it will greatly reduce their electoral votes

2019-12-08 18:32:44 UTC  

oh yah, that's a thing isn't it.

2019-12-08 18:33:48 UTC  

Think of how insane it it to not want the question of ARE YOU A CITIZEN OF THIS COUNTRY WE'RE DOING A CENSUS FOR

2019-12-08 18:34:02 UTC  

Why not count all of Japan as well

2019-12-08 18:34:17 UTC  

Just give them all UBI also
