Computer experts have identified vulnerabilities to our election process when using electronic methods. Voting machines can be programmed to flip votes to a specific candidate using a few second delay so the voter is unaware this has taken place, unless the voter goes back to review their entire ballot on the machine.

A system to rate our politicians based on different schools of thought giving different weight to certain criteria such as honesty and campaign promises kept effectiveness and efficiency and jobs created and wealth created as well as knowledge of politics and policy.

The government should sponsor the internet for free for limited access. To apply for jobs, as most jobs are applied for on line and to vote on-line. The government has the facial recognition capabilities and could allow a 100% vote in america and could be seen as a matter of national security for there to be a mandatory 100% vote in every election, always!

Thank you,

I believe that this could be a prominent factor in voting security while allowing the voice of all ...more »
