53. Report
- www.ss.ca.gov
- The implementation of Internet voting would allow increased access to the voting process for millions of potential voters who do not regularly participate in our elections. ...
- To achieve the goal of providing voters with the opportunity to cast their ballots at any time from any place via the Internet, this task force believes that the elections process would be best served by a strategy of evolutionary rather than revolutionary change. ...
- One of the most difficult tasks for an Internet voting system is the authentication of voters. ...
- Eventually, election officials can transition toward allowing voters to cast ballots at publicly accessible county-controlled kiosks or computers and, in the future, provide the option of remote computer voting from any computer with Internet access. ...
- Although the procedures used to request an Internet ballot in this model would be more cumbersome than traditional e-commerce transactions, it is the only way to tie the authentication of voters from the existing paper voter registration system to the electronic arena at this time. ...
- However, current technology would allow for the implementation of new voting systems that would allow voters to cast a ballot over the Internet from a computer at any one of a number of county-controlled polling places in a county. ...
- The success or failure of Internet voting in the near-term may well depend on the ability of computer programmers and election officials to design a system where the burden of the additional duties placed on voters does not outweigh the benefits derived from the increased flexibility provided by the Internet voting system. ...
- The democratic process warrants an extremely high level of security, but the security measures can not be so cumbersome to voters that the new process would prevent participation. ...
- For the purposes of this report, an Internet Voting System is defined as an election system that uses electronic ballots that would allow voters to transmit their voted ballot to election officials over the Internet. ...
- Polling Place Internet Voting is defined as the use of Internet Voting Machines at traditional polling places staffed by election officials who assist in the authentication of voters before ballots are cast. ...
- This task force recommends a phased-in approach to developing an Internet Voting System that will allow election officials and voters the opportunity to identify any possible problems before they occur. ...
- In this phase, voters would not yet gain the advantage of voting from any place at any time, but the integrity of the voting and tabulation technology will be verified through the use of Internet Voting Machines. ...
- Phase Two of the task force’s recommendation would allow voters to cast Remote Internet Ballots. ...
- Until the voter registration rolls contain a digital signature or biometric identification for all registered voters, requests for Remote Internet ballots must be made on paper with a manual signature that can be compared against the manual signature on the voter’s registration card. Voters will be provided a digital signature for voting purposes once the manual signature on the Internet ballot request and the paper voter registration card are verified. ...
- To minimize the potential technological threats to Internet voting, election officials should provide unique operating system and web browser software to voters. ...

60. Article: U.S. Electoral College
- en.wikipedia.org
- Although ballots typically list the names of the Presidential candidates, voters within the 50 states and the District of Columbia (which is considered a state when voting for President, according to Amendment XXIII of the Constitution) actually choose electors when they vote for President. ...
- In practice, the voters choose slates of electors pledged to candidates for president and vice president; in most states, the names of the electors do not appear on the ballot. ...
- Constitution, there is no requirement for a state to poll its voters. ...
- This would allow a candidate to focus resources, time, and political capital in winning the greatest numbers of voters in the cities. It is felt that this pressure would apply to all parties, and lead to voters in the sparsely populated West being completely ignored. ...
- If a direct election was instituted, Colorado's voters would receive less attention, as a candidate would have to campaign over the entire state (the 8th largest) for a smaller number of votes than the geographically much smaller city of Los Angeles. ...

- They advocate direct election of the President by the voters, which might sometimes produce different results than the electoral college system (for example, the 1824, 1876, 1888 and 2000 elections) though with regard to any particular election no one can say with certainty because voter turnout would be different. Supporters of direct election argue that it disenfranchises no one, since it gives everyone an equal vote, regardless of which part of the country they live in, and oppose giving disproportionately amplified voting power to voters in small states. In contrast, the Electoral College disenfranchises those voters in every state who cast their votes for the candidate receiving fewer votes in that state. And it also partly disenfranchises voters in larger states by reducing their proportional contribution to the final election result. ...
- Opponents also point out that the Electoral College assumes that voters within states vote monolithically, when in fact this is not the case. ... A key element of democracy is that voters disagree among themselves on what they consider their interests, and this happens within states as well as between states. ... This in itself skews the campaign process, as candidates focus their efforts on states whose electoral votes are in question, rather than individual voters whose ballots are in play, and may contribute to broader sectional divisions. Reliably partisan states may resent the attentions candidates lavish on swing states, and reliably partisan voters areas described abovereliably not courted by candidates and therefore discouraged from participating in the electoral system at all. ...
- Some have argued that the French system creates problems of its own; it is possible that the initial vote becomes divided up between so many candidates that someone who is highly undesirable to most voters can make it to the second round of voting, as occurred in 2002 with the rise of candidate Jean-Marie Le Pen to the runoff election. ...
