By Marc Elias
November 28, 2025

1. Enact a statutory right to vote for every eligible citizen.
2. Ban signature matching of mail-in ballots.
3. Count all ballots postmarked by Election Day.
4. Guarantee voters they will not have to wait more than 30 minutes in line.
5. Ban third-party voter challenges and other forms of vigilantism.
6. Provide criminal and civil remedies for voter intimidation.
7. Revise and strengthen election-certification laws.

Remember the Dead Old White Guys were opposed to “democracy”.

“The Founders knew that a democracy would lead to some kind of tyranny. The term democracy appears in none of our Founding documents. Their vision for us was a Republic and limited government.” — Walter E. Williams

Remember they saw the (bloody) French Revolution, as well as the many “slave uprisings” in the New World.

“If voting made any difference they wouldn’t let us do it.” — Emma Goldman ― often incorrectly attributed to American humorist Mark Twain ― but very very true imho!

“The greatest fallacy of democracy is that everyone’s opinion is worth the same.” — Robert A. Heinlein

All that being said:

  • I agree with #1 and #2.
  • The rest I’m not so sure are improvements or do-able.
  • I’d add a few of my own

#8 Voter Id — mandatory —  citizens only —  indelible ink like in India

#9 Voter Competency —  no “nursing home” voting blocks —  not sure how to enforce that but should be easy to figure out

#10 Voter crypto signature —  if iPhone and Android can do passkeys then the USA can do it too

#11 Fraud and Campaign contributions penalties with teeth 

#12 Political Campaign contributions limited amounts, from real individuals, and all domiciled in the district

#13 Paper ballots only!  No machines.

#14 Repeal the 17th Direct Election of Senators and return it to the State legislators

#15 Ranked Choice voting nationwide

I thing that about covers it.  I’m sure I’ll think of some more.

Laugh!

As if anyone cares.

Several weeks ago, True the Vote published a short paper titled The Aftermath. Written as part of a broader collection of our recent work in Georgia, The Aftermath addressed the impact Georgia’s dirty voter rolls had on the 2020 election and a meeting I had in 2020 with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his team, where we discussed True the Vote’s plans to assist Georgia citizens in challenging ineligible voter records.

*** and ***

Little more than two weeks later, on January 2nd, 2021, Secretary Raffensperger and members of his staff had a call with President Trump and members of his team. On that call, President Trump asked about inaccurate voter records. Both Secretary Raffensperger and General Counsel Ryan Germany stated that they had fully evaluated the various claims of election irregularities and said without qualification there was no evidence to support them, including no problems with the voting records. This statement was knowingly false. Both men were well-aware of that falsity at the time.

*** end quote ***

So, in addition to ignore their duty to clean the voter rolls, they lied to the sitting President.

Surely, there must be some criminal statutes for them to be prosecuted under?

If not, then we are in a sinking ship of state.
