Voter reform that is desperately needed.

Okay, here's the ONLY way America will ever get to reliable elections in the future.
1. ALL illegal aliens have to be deported. Any politicians found issuing drivers licenses to them should be prosecuted for aiding and abetting immigration and voter fraud.
2. Build that wall, so future generations of illegal Democrat votes will STAY in Central American and not pay cartels to bring to our shores.
3. ABOLISH EARLY VOTING. There is this thing called absentee voting that has worked for generations. My original precinct was in North Carolina and I cast my FIRST vote for Reagan while in Erie, PA. It can be done. Some people just need to get off their fat asses and do it.
4. ONLY voters with valid photo ID should be allowed to vote. Attempting to vote more than once should be made a felony.
5. Crowded precincts should be required to invest tax dollars into creating more polling places so that voter lines won't be so long.
6. Election day should take place on Saturday, so that those who work for a living wouldn't have to either miss work or stand in a long line to vote.
7. ICE and INS should have officers stationed at EVERY polling place in America, and that would be worth a tax increase to pay for. Any illegal aliens trying to vote should be immediately arrested and deported.

I'll patiently wait while a few idiots hurl insults and call me every name in the book, but these are reasonable suggestions.

I think that if a voter uses a mail in ballot, it should either be delivered by hand with a valid ID or come through the USPS, no mail in ballots carried in by the 1000s at 2:00am in garbage bags should be counted.

@Roadsterrider Again, that's kind of the absentee voter system. It's very easy to figure out. People at city desks (especially if you register ahead of time) are very helpful getting you the proper paperwork filled out.

@Reason10 When I was in the military, I used absentee voting, now my job requires about 50% travel, I use early voting if I will be traveling in the field during the election. There are valid reasons for both types of voting. And, there is a valid reason for mail in ballots, but they should all be controlled and verified. As strongbow said in another comment, voting twice, or in my opinion, any fraudulent vote should be a felony.

@Roadsterrider It was the military absentee votes from our soldiers overseas who helped cement George W. Bush's Florida victory. Yeah, the Algore campaign tried to get those votes tossed, but they were counted.

@Reason10 As long as they followed proper channels, they should be counted. We don't need to reinvent the wheel, just clean up procedures and follow them.
@Reason10 untrue..in fact it was the republican SC court and bush’s brother the governor that stopped the count . You dont get to rewrite history brown shirt,
@Roadsterrider all mail in ballots are verified against the voter registration list.

@Ryderbike Verification of absentee/mail in ballots varies from state to state, verification goes from being properly filled out no matter who signed it, up to verifying the signature on the voter registration list. There is no standardization from state to state.

@Ryderbike That is a stupid LIE.
@Roadsterrider if you were correct than you would have to admit it’s republican states that are the ones doing that since that’s the states trump claimed he won..under Republican control.

You’re not very smart are you?

@Ryderbike Well, if they were red states, I guess Biden wouldn't have won and especially by a comfortable margin. Smart, aren't you?

I can only talk about the state I live in and prior to the 2020 election, no votes received after 8:00pm on election day were invalid, the democrat legislature and governor changed that to votes could be counted after poll closing in the months coming up to the election. When polls closed at 8:00pm, Trump was ahead in PA. Then the local news started showing the people bringing garbage bags full of ballots into the precincts and by Wednesday morning, Biden had a comfortable lead in PA. So, to me, there was some shady things going on with the state government and with vote harvesting in the state. In addition, there have been 2 election judges from PA who have been sentenced to prison for election fraud. So, I think it is smart to question the results in the state I live in.
