Just another reason to stick with normal voting, in person, on election day.
I am dead set against ALL of this tomfoolery around elections, extending counting deadlines, expanding mail in voting, voting early, ballot harvesting, etc.
One thing I am MOST adamantly against is “ranked voting”.
The fact that, when you explain it to most people, their forehead wrinkles, should be reason enough not to enact it.
But my Blue State (MA) is going to do just that on election day. “Ranked Voting” will be approved, no doubt at all.
This won’t have any effect at all on Presidential elections (yet) and in this state, which has been subject to One-Party Rule for decades (disregarding the pathetic RINO governors who have held office since the Seventies) will have a huge effect on down-ballot voting.
I will be surprised if any non-Democrat candidates take office in this state again. Ranked voting will Stalinize the single party rule by Democrats completely in this state, and in states where there are still Republicans being elected down-ballot, it is simply going to make it harder for them to win.
Just watch...
I wish the days and hours were consistent for every state....and they should be.
Time to recalc how many machines and workers we need in the future.
I do NOT like being forced to mail in because of inconvenience caused by the Election Boards.
