>Would you be more inclined to educate yourself on the candidates and the issues on the ballot?
Yes, definitely.
>Voting is basically a solved problem
Not sure what's your definition of "solved problem," but, as far as I'm concerned, it's not solved if it fails people who would be inclined to vote and educate themselves on voting if it were easier to vote.
>open more polling places, hire more people to staff them.
That would be an alternative, especially if they could open polling place at each workplace and near each home with infinite staff. Alternatively, technology and automation could be used to scale UX, but, as you mentioned, current tech does not appear to be fit for this, which makes voting not a solved problem.
