1. Elections will be held on Election Day ONLY.

2.bNo early voting or mail-in ballots (except Absentee Ballots, duly requested by military serving overseas, or by elderly voters unable to get to the polls or by travelers unable to return to their voting jurisdictions by Election Day. Signatures on Absentee Ballots to be notarized by a Certified Notary Public).

3. All voters to present valid identification at registration venues and at the polls.

4. Only paper ballots will be used. No machine voting.

5. Voter registration will close fourteen (14) business days prior to Election Day.

6. All voting polls to operate strictly within the law. Observers will be allowed full access to all election proceedings. All polling places will be equipped with “eye-in-the-sky” systems, similar to those used in gambling casinos, capable of detecting malfeasance.

7. All ballots will be hand-counted, no machine counting.**All votes will be hand counted only in the precinct where the votes were cast.

8. Provisional ballots will be color-coded on the envelopes and on the ballots for clear identification to eliminate erroneous counting.

9. Reasonable costs necessary to implement a fair election process will be incurred with no argument."

Confidence in our election system is worth it!What you want to do is to make voting more difficult. What we should be doing is making it more accessible. To make voting a one day event means hours standing in line. People do work you know and can't afford to do this especially hourly workers. We have never had a lack of confidence in our election system until Trump made it an issue because his ego couldn't accept the fact that he lost.
I haven't had confidence in our elections for decades, but then, I'm originally from California.

Election Day should be a national holiday.

As a Democrat in the primary, I voted for Bernie since he didn't act as old as Biden among other reasons. In the final election, no way was I going to vote for Biden or Trump, so I voted for the Libertarian candidate as a protest vote against Democrats and Republican's failure for coming up with a better candidate. My relative for his protest vote elected to vote for Kanye West, so good for him. He's apparently not racist!

By the way, no way in hell and back do I wish Trump was still president. America deserves much, much better than that sorry character! After all, make no doubt whatsoever, Trump is the world's sorest loser! Further more, why should I had been wrong and foolish enough for someone, Trump, who saluted his enemy, a North Korean General and clowned around by pretending to conduct the orchestra while the National Anthem was being played? At least Trump's foreign born wife knew how to behave by placing her hand on her heart! So you're so profoundly wrong for loving Trump!

Make no doubt it, whatsoever, America will never be able to right itself, politically, as long as most everybody absolutely refuses to cast protest votes against Democrats and Republicans, especially for president!

If y'all don't trust the blue states with mail in voting, there is a red one (Utah) that almost exclusively votes by mail that states can copy. It works well. I love it.

Set things up like we do it. It should be available to anyone who wants to use mail, not these restrictive unnecessary scenarios that people think we need.

Fixed it for you.
So, Roboteer, if all abortion is banned as you quite dearly desire, how do you propose to force or convince pregnant women to obey and give birth? By putting all women who violate the abortion ban on trial for murder? All women found guilty would be subject to for up to life in prison?

But like it or not most all Trump lovers and supporters would quite strongly disagree with you. Right, Trump lovers and supporters?

Then that's even worse.

A country that casts 80 million legitimate votes for Biden is incapable of self-governance and needs to be broken up.

Obviously you were either not present, or to young to remember the Bush Gore fiasco in Florida.
Many, including me were extremely frustrated with our election process regarding that election.

I support a voter’s ID law were you must show up in person to vote WITH a valid US government issued identification card prior to voting.

I also think that all the major National elections days should be made into a federal holiday, which the sole purpose of having the time to walk or drive to an authorized place to cast your vote.

Also, “Vote Harvesting” should be made illegal.
