Maybe you shouldn't run for president.
This cycle has made me think voting by mail or even early voting isn't too good of an idea.
There are a whole lot of people who I am sure would have voted differently on election day than they did prior to it.
There is nothing that says you can't vote on election day. A lot of people are "purists" and still like going to the place where ballots are counted to drop their ballots off personally. And it also limits the impact of those last gasp hit pieces that always seems to come out and most importantly - there are no lines and no ability by a SoS to cut voting stations in "certain" precincts.
I have a question about abortions that I can probably only ask on this thread.
I read about states various efforts to run abortion providers out of their states.
But 39% of abortions are now done by medication. If abortion is outlawed in Louisiana, or wherever, what is there to stop some entrepreneur from setting up shop in a state such as New York where abortions are legal and writing prescriptions off an 800 number. Or if not from New York then from a Canadian pharmacy? Aren't people doing that for Viagra now? What could Louisiana, or any other state, do to stop these transactions.
Washington votes by mail and as long as a ballot has an election day postmark it counts. So there are still outstanding ballots. Same deal in California. Oregon is a vote by mail state, but ballots are due back by Election Day. Makes for a quick election night, usually done in two hours.
I remember when we went to electronic voting locally. It went from a drawn out process to having results precinct by precinct in no time. The radio station was PIIISSSSSED.
"We've sold election night coverage advertising for the next three hours!"
"Sorry. Here's who won. Turn out the lights and lock up when you leave."
