How do you know there isn't wide spread fraud? There's no way to tell with the honor system in use today. Require a state issued ID card an you'll find out in a hurry.
Because the Diebold machines aren't that widespread....
Excellent point. If you feel your vote is wasted now, wait until all the 18-35 year old voters, updating each other via twitter -- vote for whoever MTV tells them is the best candidate. Tyranny of the unwashed masses.
The best discriminator so far is voluntary voting. This at least gets us people who give a damn (or are pressured by family).
There is a reason the military is all-voluntary (remember the problems with the draft in Vietnam?)
I've long watched this website. I am fairly certain that average slashdotter (median or mean) possesses a
higher intellect on the important scales:
[computational, logistic, moral].
But you are emotionally retarded. This is what is holding you back.
As soon as you make an argument that includes the word "cost" you need to realize your argument is invalid.
