This is why, despite security risks, I’m in favor of developing an online voting system. Vote by mail is better then what we have now, but I’ve found usability

  I disagree, voting by mail is easy and convenient - I still like and support polling places as a primary solution but online voting systems raise far too many questions around accountability and verification. And, while some good theoretical systems exist, it's anyone's guess which approach ends up being picked by the same politicians who have repeatedly gone for budget voting machines or those who have blatant conflicts of interest and have used voting machine selection to line their own pockets. Voting is really important, if voting works we can theoretically solve a lot of other problems. But if we can't vote then the only solution we have is marching in the streets which will often lead to violence and destruction.
