Quote from: "RW"So it favours young people over old people in other words.  Not sure that's a bad thing either.


Bullshit, most of the voting booths in the US are electronic touch pad type devices. All you see is OLD people at the polling places. They are either voting or working the polls.



The proplem is that the young are too lazy or disconnected to bother to take time out from their electronic network entanglements to get off their ass and vote.



Unless of course if some leftard asshole like Bernie Sanders is screaming the word "FREE", then they come running like lemmings.

I googled an article last night about e voting. It was four years old, but aside from Estonia, it hasn't really worked so well anywhere it was tried. One of the places that could claim some success in it was your state of New Jersey.

I meant voting from home and not going to a polling station.
