I'm old school. We've moved from a society of contact, either in person (shopping, dining, ordering) to one of virtual contact. I think people should get up and go vote IN PERSON and use a ballot that can be counted.

So now the government will buy everyone who can't afford it a smart phone. Makes sense.

Voting in person kind of blows, but this could too easily be rigged by the ultra left dweebs in Silicon Valley.

Voting in person should be the only way allowed. Iâ€m a big believer in the use of paper ballots. While ballot box stuffing can happen, it is much likely less to be abused and is visual evidence in an election. I do not trust electronic voting at all.

Mandatory voting will be next. SCOTUS will call it a 'tax'.
DC is a symptom, not the cause. The cause is basic voter stupidity and economic ignorance.

The left will eventually start pushing for voting rights for foreign tourists. You laugh now...
I learned a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time ago not to underestimate anybody or any government.
