All voting to take place on election day. (how radical)
a. All primary voting to take place on the same primary election day.
2. Absentee ballots only for military or in-firmed, to be processed ON ELECTION DAY. (leave enough time between primary day & election day to get this accomplished)
3. All able bodied voters to vote IN PERSON at their polling place. (where people might just know if you are who you say you are)
4. All voters to provide picture ID at the polls at the time of voting. I don’t have ID cry babies can’t vote.
(Felons afraid of being caught at the polling place should stay home. We don’t want your vote)
5. Repeal Motor Voter
6. Both primary and general election days to be paid national holidays. All non essential businesses to be closed. (grocery stores, stop & robs, and drug stores exempt) Provisions must be made for essential workers to have off enough time to vote.
7. All polls to open and close at the same time (lets call it the Florida Panhandle rule). We manage to coordinate live football so everyone can watch at the same time. Polls would open later in the east and close earlier in the west. Say perhaps 6am in the west (California)until midnight in the east (NY). 14 hours on a day you have off should be plenty. It could be shorter.
a.Outliers (Hawaii etc.) will vote early, so as to have finished voting by the time everyone else has.
b. Voters in line when the polls close will NOT be allowed to vote. Tough @$*#. (lets call it the Detroit rule)
Vote first, then go get your crack.
8. Exit polling to be banned. Not just the reporting of exit polls, the taking of them at all. Why? ex. Well we can’t tell you who is winning until the polls close, but Charlie Rangel is finally going to have to move that car. lol
9. Alcohol sales should NOT be banned as they have been in the past. Stupid people & druggies are allowed to vote, why not drunks
Good morning!
CPT, you make a powerful argument and a lot of sense.
