We should be automatically registered to vote at age 18. Voting day should be on Sat. and/or a national holiday. While some want to make it harder to vote we should do all we can to make it easier. Everything we say we believe in, we need to make it real on a whole new level

This is exactly why I still believe you were the best for the job in 2020 - most of the country I just don鈥檛 think knew it yet. Will you run for office again in some capacity?

If every state followed Oregon's lead and had mail in voting, no day off would be needed. We have some of the highest voter turn out in the country! #votebymail

In addition to all those reforms I was thinking we should make it mandatory to vote, with a small penalty or fine if you don't, and also rank choice. Make it a long weekend Friday-Monday a national holiday, day off and have poles open the 24 hours the whole time.

There should not be legal & illegal voters because if you pay taxes, you pay for the government & if you're not allowed to vote, it's taxation without representation.
Replying to @marwilliamson
More voters and the same extreme candidates on both sides will not make us better off. More voters is great, but we need a better way to choose the candidates.

In that case we should all automatically receive a drivers license when we turn 16. We should also be able to buy hand guns, cigarettes and alcohol when we're 18.

WHY IN THE HELL ARE POLLS IN THE MOST LUDICROUS PLACES POSSIBLE? LIKE IN THE MALLS WITH THE CITIZENS SNAKING AROUND THE LINE HUNDREDS LONG? WHY ARENT MORE POLLS OPENED WHERE YOU DONT HAVE THE RIDICULOUS LINES? IS ANYONE THINKING ANYMORE?
Replying to @marwilliamson
You have years I. Between elections to register, find your polling place and how to vote. You can literally vote weeks ahead of the elections now. You literally don鈥檛 even have to show up the day of to do one of the only things that鈥檚 required. How easier does it need to get?
