This story is quite interesting.

I guess this about says it all:
"The hazards of e-voting are immense," Allan Saxe, associate professor of political science at University of Texas in Arlington, told UPI. Nevertheless, backers of the electronic voting technology, in academia, politics and in the business world, are promoting the prospect of Internet voting

Even though I like the idea, doesn't online voting just open a Pandora's box of fraudulent voting and computer hackers??? Just a thought...

This is an open invitation to a plethora of election fraud schemes: vote-buying, voter coercion, and just plain rigging the count.
Frankly, if you can't be bothered to get off your ass to go vote*, you shouldn't be voting.
*Reasonable accomodations for people who have legitimate difficulties in getting to the polls are obviously a different matter.

I oppose it 100%. Too easy for fraud.
1. Email addresses are easy.
2. Voting for friends and family that don't vote is easier.
3. Cookies and IP's are easy to get past even from a novice.
No way.

What's your gut feeling? Do you think online voting would benefit the Pubbies or the Dims?
