We need to broadcast the folly if vote-by-mail far and wide.
In defense of vote-by-mail proponents, if the voters are stupid enough to permit this folly to unfold, then I'm ready to blame the victims.
- specialist 7y agoFWIW, my #1 lesson learned from my activism failures is: Have an affirmative agenda. Offense over defense. It's just so much harder to oppose stuff. Especially if you have an end goal. Like pushing rope. If I could do it all over again, I would have started a "citizen owned elections" effort. Creating an open source software and hardware stack, model legislation (for the policies, laws, rules, regulations, procedures), and educational materials (messaging, talking points, explainers). I went all across my state with the "citizen owned elections" notion. It was a 90/10 issue. Broad support across Dems, GOP, Greens, good govt groups, etc. Alas.
