I have posted several times about national voting day, where all states are voting at the same time. ALL polls open at the same time and close at the same time (except far flung places like Hawaii).
Everyone (except essential personnel) gets the day OFF so that the minor time restrictions are not a factor, plus other details.
This would reduce the opportunity for voting fraud and exit poll results should be banned although the ACTUAL votes could be tallied much sooner and mostly at the same time. A deadline could be imposed to diminish the chance of cheating. Polls would CLOSE on time. Still waiting in line?.. you should have taken voting more seriously AND we gave you the day OFF!
That was step one, THE VOTE
Now step two THE COUNT
I don’t have the answers for this, but I like the idea of verifying, online, for myself, how my vote was recorded.
I like paper trails. I like digital scanning machines to have ZERO, and I mean ZERO capability of connecting to the internet. Votes could be posted online separately after counting.
We have to get completely away from voting machines being able to be hacked or rigged. It just can’t be allowed to happen.
All precincts must release the results at the same time. So the Rats don’t know how many votes are needed. It is no coincidence there are always Rat areas who’s results are not known yet.
