Any state that can’t get their votes counted within the day of the election shall forfeit their electoral votes in the General Election going forward.

This is ridiculous.

 @Pr0porti0nalJimRepublicanfrom Missouri commented…3mos3MO

Get that law passed, then watch the regime start sabotaging the elections of red states so they can't finish counting on Election Day and their electoral votes aren't counted in the GE. Blue states would somehow miraculously now be done counting in an hour.

California is a train wreck. Our elections are run like a banana republic. The solution is to make election day a federal holiday with only in-person voting with voter ID required. Also, ban mail-in ballots. Follow if you agree.

 @E1ectionJayVeteran from Ohio agreed…3mos3MO

> with only in-person voting with voter ID required.

I heard on the TV that voter ID is unfair to black people.

Either they don’t know who they are, or they can’t figure out how to get an ID.

 @M4jorityPuddingDemocrat from North Carolina disagreed…3mos3MO

Yeah, and that is the most condescending statement to black people.

 @E1ectionJayVeteran from Ohio disagreed…3mos3MO

Without ID, how on Earth do black Americans buy alcohol and tobacco products, go to the bank, board a flight, obtain a loan, complete form I-9 for employment, or engage in any government service? This argument is, and always has been, so condescending to Blacks!

 @BustardFredDemocrat from Alabama disagreed…3mos3MO

Why make it so hard for our citizens to vote by mail? As taxpayers, the ballots are mailed directly to our home addresses. The government knows who are citizens and those that are not.

Also, it's a paper document that is easily verified by signature.

Germany? Paper ballot. Sunday vote. Everyone 16 and older has a state ID. Mandated registration when you move into a village or city.

 @DelightfulDiplomatDemocratfrom California disagreed…3mos3MO

Germany is the size of Montana.

 @S0cialistPieAmerican Solidarityfrom Tennessee disagreed…3mos3MO

With 84-million in population.

With 46-million voting...with 40-odd parties in the mix.

 @DelightfulDiplomatDemocratfrom California disagreed…3mos3MO

It’s really apples & oranges. They have one election. We have 50.

 @S0cialistPieAmerican Solidarityfrom Tennessee disagreed…3mos3MO

16 states....each on a different schedule. Fed election by itself. Municipal/district elections by themselves. They repeat the act often enough that it's not rocket-science (except this last one in Berlin-city).

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

In considering Brazil's rapid vote tallying, do you think the speed of counting votes should be a priority in election reforms?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

Do you believe that implementing mandatory voting for youths over 16 would enhance or infringe on personal freedoms?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

Would a faster vote counting process, like in Argentina, make you more likely to trust election results?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…3mos3MO

How might mandatory voting on a non-work day affect civic engagement and democracy in the US?

 @EggsPeytonLibertarian from Florida disagreed…3mos3MO

Brazil’s elections were not allowed to be audited . . . Just like the US, because of the black box machines. Brazil also had a staged J6 with people being imprisoned for years who didn’t touch anyone. All the same playbook.

Taiwan is the example to look to - paper ballots all hand counted, everything on video, to defeat any attempts by CCP to subvert using the machines.

Many counties and some states across the US are now starting hand count trials and trainings to show they can work. Hand counting of paper ballots should be a mandatory and trained backup process for any type of widespread interruption of our believed black box machines in any case.
