I voted in North Carolina this year for the presidential election. I was extremely pleased when they asked for my ID, the woman held it in her hand, looked at my address, looked at the address on my voter registration, make sure everything was correct and then handed me a ballot.

I’m sure they’re still opportunities for fraud, but I was happy

“the real goal was to keep nonwhite, mostly Democratic, voters from the polls.”

F’n NYT. It was to stop some of the rampant cheating

WHEN I VOTED IN PERSON here in Nevada-—they SCANNED the back of my Nevada driver’s license, and looked hard at the pic.

MY newest license: I look like a demented escapee from “THE HOME”.

No system will ever be 100% fraud proof or perfect in that it is easy to use for every eligible voter under all possible circumstances.

The goal is to derive at a solution that “reasonably” prevents voter fraud while also giving all those eligible to vote a “reasonable” chance to do so.

I missed the electiontions this year (first time in my life). Last second, my wife and I, stressed out over home renovations and the mess it has created, went to Mexico for a vacation. Get away before we go nuts. This is an example where the system just can’t possibly cover every possible scenario in affording people the chance to vote.

North Carolina seems to have come to such a solution. I hope-

Here in Ohio I presented my drivers license only for the election worker to point out that it had expired a week before, on my birthday. Went home and retrieved my passport. Presented to the same worker, who was pleasant and understanding through the whole exercise. Checked the paper ballot the machine (NOT Dominion) produced to verify my selections, then that was fed into another machine. Fast and efficient with a paper trail.

My reaction voting here in North Carolina was exactly the same as yours. We passed this by statewide referendum in 2018. Its ridiculous that it took this long to implement.
