them blasian prison gangs are a real problem

but for real, thats less political ideology and more primal group instinct

you join up or get eaten alive

An estimated 5.5 million felons can't vote. With an estimated US population of 320 million, this problem affects less than 2 percent.

probably as likely to find a socialist commune in prison

And that's assuming every one of them would vote.

@Mersenne elections are decided on less

well, no, *candidacy* is decided on less

True. Which is why I still support released felons having the right to vote.

Yeah, let them vote. It's only fair that they can vote for politicians who will lower the penalties for their favorite crimes.

Whatever it takes to produce more right wingers

the king of strawmans! How you doing super?

Make felonaphobia a crime!

Awesome, how about you?

The real challenge is ballot harvesting. No one should be authorized to collect absentee ballots.

pretty good, my washer broke today though

Let felons gather the ballots

Creates an environment rich for abuse, with collectors historically discarding unwanted ballots while submitting ballots for their candidate.

And, arm the felons while we're at it

why don’t we all just have voter ID and then vote from our phones with our voter ID

Voter ID laws should be a no-brainer. Democrats defend 'the rural vote' - despite that everyone has an ID in today's age.

That made sense in the 1920s. It's a laughable defense in 2020.

You could literally vote from your phone with 2-factor authentication and a photo copy of a state-issued ID

That would actually be fucking easier than dealing with ballot boxes.

yah, voteing ID really should be one of the strongest IDs out there, not the weakest.

though, i'm going to be against E-voteing of any kind, to easy to hack into stuff with out leaveing any kind of trail.

Democrats require ID to attend their events against voter ID 🤡

I just wish there was a way to serialise ballots with out breaking anonymity.

E-Voting presents challenges, but provides database validation. Instantly check who you voted for, how many voter's are registered, and how many votes were placed.

It's a system that provides integrity - something our current system lacks entirely.

I'd like to be able to check my vote with my phone so I can verify it was recorded correctly.

here, this guy does a much better job of explaining it then i will.

Electronic voting is Cringe; all hail the Paper Ballot

Paper ballot is rife with vulnerabilities. E-Voting is no different, but provides the means to *validate* votes and voters.

I am ok with ballot's made to be counted by machines, but they should also be countable by people.

maybe every voting house could have an infra red flare indicating one candidate or the other

use the machine to quick count and sort then dobble and tripple check with people.

i've got an idea, let's not let dead people vote

Databases are the future regardless. It just makes sense to move to an E-vote model. Provide voters with PIV cards for 2-Factor auth. Let them get a printed copy of their ballot at the polls.

All of this saves millions, provides voter integrity, and allows you to instantly validate your district's votes.

until one person hacks into that database and does what ever they want to it.
