We need to find safer, more productive ways for people to cast their ballot rather than provide an additional employer paid benefit for performing a civic duty. We put a man on the moon in 1969 - 50 years of technology development since then - and we still cast ballots using the same basic process as then.
The federal government - executive and legislative branches - need to spur the private investment necessary to provide the most secure, efficient balloting system in the world. We should own that.
