Clipping the wings of the voters and extending the runway is not a good replacement, IMO. Or yours, I see.
In the kind of real voting excercised by properly eligible, properly registered and properly identified real Local Citizen Voters in real elections in really civilized countries, all the votes are counted where they are cast. Counted, that is, by real Local Citizens under the scrutiny and supervision of other real Local Citizens.
And after being counted and recounted and checked and scrutinized by real Local Citizens only the tallies are electronically transmitted, under further strict Local Citizen scrutiny, to a public and open and Citizen-scrutenized central tally center.
Before, where they were cast, the physical voting papers are sealed real Local Citizens in really secure boxes before being transported by real Local Citizens scrutinized by other real Local Citizens to Absolutely Secure storage facilities to be kept for later access, in case of any legitimate vote-count challenge.
Only in America are "votes" cast by mail and on touch screens and "voting machines" and the like by anyone or any thing - dog, cat, fish, gerbel - anywhere on Earth who cares to bother or whose owner or next-door neighbor fills in a form and mails it in.
And only in America is the counting of said "votes" entrusted to and done by vote counters who are the wholy owned and operated activists of one of the only "two" parties permitted to participate in "elections."
Permitted, that is, in accordance with the rules of the coercive cartel comprised of only the said "two" parties.
Go figger.
Happy Thanksgiving, B4, to you and all of those you love. Plan to be home for several months from January. Hope I can make it up this time. Blessings - B A
