Vote twice..!

THE INHERENT PROBLEM with traditional elections is how it is impossible for voters to check the results afterward, to confirm that their ballots were properly recorded and correctly counted.

That is, under our traditional system, by design, election results can end up being whatever the highest bidder wants them to be, by sifting and doctoring.  

What seems needed, then, and worth proposing, is a federal mandate that, for every ballot counting station across the country, two systems of data collection would be used.  Ballots would be input first in the official system, and then into a second, tracking system.  This way, the official results can be managed as in their usual way, while the end score can be confirmed by the tracking system, that was kept sealed until then.  This would make election fraud more difficult to perpetrate without detection, is my argument.  

If you like that idea, here is another one.  

Form a prototype company to count ballots, then get Congress to require implementation of your company’s products, nationwide..!  

That’s all it would take (smile).
