"Voting for the television show American Idol shouldn't be more accurate than the state of Florida's presidential election polls."
In Switzerland they have introduced e-voting so that citizens can vote for elections, bills, referendums, and participate in other democracy functions via computer and even mobile phone. Not only has this been working with great success it has also increased citizen involvement in politics.
If citizens can safely do banking, pay taxes, and even register to vote online, then why not straight up voting?
In the past, voter participation has been an issue that concerned our government. There have been media campaigns that would attempt to encourage voter participation. Now with the polarization of the current political climate there has been a change to attempt to manipulate voting outcomes by enacting laws that would restrict voting and actually discourage citizens from voting.
This is wrong.
Not only should the government always be encouraging voting, it should also be proactive in using modern technology to find ways to get more citizen participation in the process. It shouldn't matter what party you are affiliated with, it shouldn't matter if you don't even vote. Making voting easier benefits us all and the country.
This is the bases of the Revoltive! Technology and information is our weapons of revolution!
No. Apparently there are those coming forward confessing that they have been able to program the computers to have whatever outcome the programmer wants. Not only that... if you have a hand filled-in ballot, the old Clinton henchmen are talking about how even county sheriffs can change boxes full of ballots in their trunks when they transport them with boxes filled with ballots favoring whomever bribes the sheriff. In my opinion, the ONLY way to deal with the COUNT is to have a few representatives from each party do a PUBLIC, FILMED count TOGETHER. The other issue to deal with is WHO is actually ALLOWED to vote. With no I.D., it leaves it open for people to vote for dead relatives, or more than one time. One county official was busted a few years back for voting 30 times. So, this is a huge mess, which allows those in power to manipulate the system. The dems screwed their own party/people over. I HAVE ZERO inclination that they will not do the same to the ENTIRE country in November. The Clintons are continuing to master their corrupt ways.
