[QUOTE="simme, post: 1657678, member: 40418"] Same here if you are voting in person. I don't think the poll workers even attempt to determine if you match up with the photo. They just scan the code on the drivers license to match you up with the registered voter list. This past year, I requested absentee voting due to Covid. Less security in that procedure here. You go online to generate the request for an absentee ballot. That requires you know the name, address, and DOB (if I remember correctly). Then you are matched up with a registered voter on the list and mailed a ballot to the address on the voter list. Fill it out, sign it, get a witness to sign (wife in my case) and return it. Some checks in that process that would keep an honest person in compliance, but maybe less than for in person voting. Not sure what checks are in place for those states that just mail a ballot to everyone on the list. Or what checks are in place to ensure that only those who are eligible are registered. Or that each person is only registered in ONE place. I really don't have firsthand detailed knowledge of the tabulation process or the safeguards there. But suspect all of the voting process could be improved to make it more secure. I am not in the group that is "[B]certain[/B]" that the election was stolen. But I do believe that election integrity is very important and that there should be procedures in place to ensure that each "eligible" person is allowed to vote "once" in each election. [B]AND [/B]that for a fair election, we should all accept the results of "we the people". Starting this year, we won't be able to fly on an airplane or enter certain federal properties without a passport or an ID that meets the requirements for the "Real ID" act. I believe that there should be safeguards on the voting process at least as stringent as being able to open a bank account, get a new doctor, or fly on a plane. [I]Maybe we all should be implanted with a chip that can be scanned when we vote and compared to a master federal list "in the cloud" to verify our eligibility.[/I] :) [/QUOTE]
