Just voted on a bunch of local stuff. Having the internet really helped. Didn't help with everything, but I think I did a better job than I usually do.
 
I would support if, and only if, one is allowed to change/resubmit their ballot up until the last hour on election day, because inevitably, this is going to start first with early voting. If it's on the internet and stored on a database, then it should be allowed.

I would want to know how they strongly authenticate, that the person voting, is in fact the voter?
 
if it is connected to the internet it can be hacked and manipulated, voting should never be done electronically, ever.
 
Voting on the internet should not be allowed!
It can be hacked. We should go back to the paper ballot.
You can not hack that!!
 
I didn't mean I voted on the internet.

I was able to look up info on people and stuff. I just wish there had been more info.

Mainly, I wanted to vote for Progressives in the Dem primary for guvnah. But I got hit with all this other stuff, blindsided might be a better term.

I've always been a policy guy, national and international. I was reading World: A journal of internation news and opinion, in high school. I had a subscription. I ought to be more involved in the local stuff, but it puts me to sleep.
