@texasdaddydom i mean a test that is repeated every time you vote. not just once when you reach voting age

@RedFlower no I do not believe in testing voters in a democracy and I don't think it would matter that much if you did I don't think the actual illiterate are the problem or vote in statistically significant numbers. I think right now our biggest problem is accuracy in media where lies and conspiracy have equal weight to science and facts. and people easily influenced by media are functional enough to pass a test.
