Election Reform Ideas: What, How and Why

If you treat voting like jury duty then you would not be able to cut polls or limit options, remove voter registration, and you would have to recuse yourself. 100% of the population is not a potential juror, but a lot more people are potential jurors than are current voters. It would require a change to identification laws to make them freely available, but that’s covered by removing voter registration and the current laws already saying voting must be free (and yes states will step on that - like they already do, but it is a single court case from being fixed). I also explicitly said to make voting a tax break instead of a penalty. Deductions are popular and sought out even when they are not worth a lot.

Also, treating a symptom is typically a cure. When everyone has to put their opinion down suddenly things must change. It’s a forcing function for greater reforms.
