The man climbed up a very small mountain while in New Zealand, and probably learned some wisdom, like beat up children and run for office.

Are there not advance polls in U.S. elections? The last election we had in Ontario had polls open at multiple locations every day for a full week, a week before the actual election day. The one before that had ten days of advance polling.

Each state runs their own election that has to at least meet minimum standards, but every state is very slightly different. Here in Colorado you get a ballot in the mail 30 days before the election day and have that full time to fill it out and either mail it in or drop it off at the polling location, or you can go to the polling location to do the vote in person instead.

Oh, well OK then, I stand corrected by your detailed argument. Thanks for showing you understood the context of my original comments!

It has existed in Oregon for 16 years. If a major flaw existed in it, it would have been found by now. Americans care about election fraud, more than voter disenfranchisement even. Your argument is far stupider because you're implying a flaw with no evidence to support over someone saying no flaw exists using a lack of a flaw in multiple states over an extended period as their evidence.
