and places like CA are attempting to make a law to send mail in ballots to everyone on the voter roll. This is ahead of Newsoms recall election. Im sure he will do just fine.
I love the idea of a single election day, but it comes down to a matter of logistics. Early voted in my state and the line was around the building with an hour wait. At peak production, they could process a voter through ID check and registration verification every 30 seconds. Next, once a machine was open, it took 3 minutes at least to complete the selection of candidates and print my ballot, which I then fed into the reader. 4 minutes per voter to complete the process. You can boost production with multiple ID checks and 6-8 machines per ID checker. Every 3-4 machines needs a person to answer questions and assist the idiots.
In order for this to work we either need to mobilize an army of poll workers, watchers, and trusted agents to work the polls for 24 hours straight, or call out the National Gua... son of a bitch, I'm in!
What would be more fun is the vote you cast has a code on it. That code let's you view your ballot. Now, you have the ability to check your ballot for fuckery.
Yes, I see the downside with ids and that they aren't anonymous ballots, but you now have a way anyone can check their ballot and know that they voted the way they voted.
It's staggering that this wasn't made the standard a long time ago.
Never underestimate the complacency of the American public.

And this MUST start at a state level. Push your local representative for this!
