In light of Oregon and Washington's database being insecure, I want to remind you all that YOUR STATE IS NO DIFFERENT
For example, in addition to DoB, California also requires the last 4 digits of your SSN.
Well guess who has that info? Whomever hacked Equifax. Whomever hacks anyone. China, and their allies in the US almost certainly have access to that info.
No one hacked Equifax at that scale to open a few fraudulent credit cards in your name. They did it so they could steal something far more valuable, and your vote is included in that.
It was China, let's just say it
In Person
Valid ID
Finger Ink
Anyone against this is against a fair election.
Reminder: 21.5 million background checks of US civilian employees was exfiltrated by Chinese agents in 2015 from the United States Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
Among the sensitive data that was exfiltrated were millions of SF-86 forms, which contain extremely personal information gathered in background checks for people seeking government security clearances, along with records of millions of people's fingerprints.

Scandal free
Yup.
We must secure our elections or it all comes crashing down in a bloody war.
The elections are already inscure, revert to paper only with a pencil with OBLIGATORY VOTER ID and REAL-TIME checks.
Call all National Guards and station them in every polling place.
Ink on the fingertip. Just like the sophisticated elections they have in third world countries!
It is slightly different in that Oregon has a way to vote that is partially on the online system. Most online registration lookups aren't any more secure but the opportunity to create problems is limited.
You and I and others will have to do what we can to interject it where possible as it seems not to be on enough people's radars in all this.
