I'd love to be able to vote thru the internet, with a state-issued certificate to authenticate me. It'll be a while before society's tech savvy enough for this tho so I won't hold my breath.
Certs would be fantastic; in my view, they could actually improve the system, because ballots would become read-only, and with the right system in place it would be impossible to "lose" them.
That sounds like fun, until the old man in the house makes everyone sit down in front of the computer and submit their votes for the "correct" party...
Isn't that already a concern with voting by mail?
I would never trust the reaults of such an election and honestly I can't see how anybody else could either.
This is a reaction to the storm, so I don't think they have all of the long term concerns thought out.
