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.
Here's the problem - the same thing happens with paper ballots - you just have no means of knowing when it occurs.
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.
but paper ballots can only be changed by being there, a computer can be changed form almost anywhere.
Unfortunately you're right. It's almost impossible to create a perfect system.
so stick with the one that doesn't scale.
I wouldn't even mind paper ballots if all states could agree on voter registration and ID requirements.
that's one of the reasons we have the electoral college.
At the very least, create a state database of registered voters and eliminate votes from the deceased.
if FL is screwing stuff up it's only FLs votes that are getting messed up, not everyone's.
again, that is a state level thing, not a federal thing.
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.
electronic voteing should not be a thing in the first place
yea i was going to say the same thing
should be all paper
I understand how it seems like a good idea on first glance
it just adds more points of failure
and more holes that can be discovered and then exploited
well it makes more single points of failure.
and that's the important part.
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
yes
all of that.
and then...
after all of this
if trump loses you just make him winner anyways

If trump loses oh lawd
if you want to have a automatic counter you can also have that to check against your human counters.
Clown world accelerated
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.
that would be great
but i wouldnt put it past places like California and New York and etc... to fudge some numbers around
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.
and also to have illegals voting
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.
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
oh yah, that's a thing isn't it.
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
Why not count all of Japan as well
Just give them all UBI also
