re: AOC's Tik Tok Stunt Just Killed Internet Voting...

1. Because the DNC ballot “harvests”. This is just another avenue for fraud.

Is there a control against this? Because at some point, the internet voting thing will be more demanded. What's the control needed and how do we lobby for it? Legislation?

2. Even absent fraud, I prefer educated voters who don’t mind taking 30-60 minutes once a year to have their voices heard. I like that voting takes more effort than changing the channel from Oprah to Judge Judy. You know, and the DNC knows, that the more people you get to vote who are lazy, disinterested and ignorant, the more Democrats will win.

How do you measure the political intelligence of any voter? The people voting...older people, for instance. Is there some literature I can read that speaks to how informed old people are? How informed full time workers are? Part time? Retired? To go along with your argument, can you first prove to me that the average voter is informed (regardless of party)? Because that seems like a very subjective way of determining voting systems.

If opening up voting to the masses will result in something you hate, any argument against that result is a proxy vote against democratic governance.
