I've been think about how all this turned into a huge cluster F**k, and how this can be avoided in the future. One idea i have is give everyone a Voter ID with a 15-20 digit code that you must sign onto your ballot, the code it self is in a data base of active codes (with no information on the person, just weather the code is active or not) and have people renew the voter ID once every 5 or so years, too avoid any zombie voters.

Is this a good idea or is there a avenue of fraud/cheating im missing?
