So take the picture, dispose of the ballot and get a new one from the election officials. Fill the new one with your own choice, get it stamped and put it into the ballot box. A bit of a hassle to be sure, but it does not exactly derail democracy.
- relix 9y agoThe coercer can stand outside the window looking in, or somewhere nearby, to check that you don't go take a new one.

- sigstoat 9y agonobody not-voting allowed in the actual-voting portion of my local polling areas, and windows were covered over, as i recall. whatever increasingly convoluted suggestion you'll make next probably doesn't work either.
- relix 9y agoYou're already coercing people into voting your way. It'll be peanuts to coerce a person who works in the polling areas to jot down who came to ask for a ballot twice. I also don't appreciate your arrogance in trying to shut down this discussion pre-emptively. Maybe try listening more in the future, you might discover interesting things even if they don't agree with your pre-set ideas.
- msl 9y agoThe officials "represent" different different parties. They keep eye on one another, so anyone keeping a personal list of voters would probably be caught quite easily. Besides, the last time I voted, the ballots were handed out at the entrance - long before anyone wanted to know who I am.
- Mediterraneo10 9y agoWhen a population has already lost faith in their authorities, and they think that their single vote counts for nothing and the results are probably rigged anyway, then most of them probably can’t be bothered to make the additional effort you describe.
