a unified voting system for the United States? This crazy patchwork of systems is becoming an embarassment. The Oregon "vote by Mail" system works, increases participation, is glitch resistant, and has a paper trail. It would get may support.

3. You aught to try the machines we've got in New York.
Hopefully the law will be amended to let us keep them. They're these solid steel lever monstrosities which have been in service since the 1930s. Scientifically proven to be the most easy, reliable, and tamper-resistant form of voting.
