¡Hello!
¿How fare you?
Some took me to task for combining voting procedures with antifraudmeasures. I contend that the 2 are not separable. I shall abstract the 2 as much as possible:
We need to start at printing and go to archiving:
The candidates and other should be randomized. Each precinct has the candidates in a different random order. The precinct number should be printed on the ballots. Each ballot should be consecutively numbered. I shall explain the reason for this later. Here is an example:
P # 002 391 B # 001 528
Precinct # 002,391 Ballot # 001,528
The each ballot and its privacyenvelope goes into an opaque envelope, thus forming a complete voting kit.
Voting kits go into sleeves.
Sleeves go into boxes.
Boxes go into crates.
Crates go onto pallets.
Pallets go into trucks.
¿Anyone else ever work shipping?
When the kits reach the precincts, they are put locked away under a live webcam.
When it is time to vote, the voting kits are put into a transparent drum. The transparent locked cast ballotbox and the locked transparent locked spoiled ballotbox are brought out. All of this happens under live webcams and in front of anyone who wants to witness it.
Before the first voter takes a kit, someone tumbles the transparent drum a triple digit number of times. The first voter grabs a random kit. Someone tumbles the transparent drum a double-digit number of times between voters.
Someone must design the voting method from the ground up so that one cannot alter a cast ballot. Voting methods and antifraudmeasures are inseparable.
Before a ballot can be put into a privacyenvelope and then plced into the locked transparent cast ballotbox, it must pass a ballotvalidater (optical scanner). Ballots which cannot make it through the ballotvalidator go into pricayenvelopes and then into the locked transpartent spoiled ballotbox. keeping spoiled ballots out of the cast locked transparent ballotbox means that any spoiled ballots in the locked cast transparent ballotbox must have been altered after casting.
When the polls close, pollworksers open the cast transparent ballotbox and count the votes immediately in front of live webcams and anyone who wants to watch using both humans and optical scanners. Any spoiled ballots in the cast ballotbox means that someone manipulated ballots after casting. The total number of cast ballots must equal the exact number of voters.
One counts the total number of ballots (cast, spoiled, and blank). All ballots must have the same precintnumber of the precinct. One must have no missing or duplicated numbers. All numbers must be consecutive and in the range ordered:
Let us suppose that Precinct # 002 543 expected only thousands of voters so ordered only ten thousand ballots. The ballots in cast, spoiled and blank must have numbers between:
P # 002 583 B # 000 000
P # 002 583 B # 009 999
With no missing or duplicated numbers.
Any irregularities should lead to an immediate fraudinvestigation.
The cast, spoiled, and blank ballots cast well as the video from the webcams should be archived.
Katherine Harris and Walden “The Electionfixer” O’Dell would have a hard time fixing these elections.
I welcome any criticisms. Please be brutal. I welcome all suggestions. Please feel free to chime into this thread.
¡Peace!
