  • voter id laws, but it only works for in person voting not mail ballots

  • Mail ballots are the ballots that are the most susceptible to fraudulence

  • The best solution we have rn is to be more strict in general: only certain people are allowed mail ballots if necessary

  • The solution needs to eliminate the fear that citizens have about voter fraud; help citizens to trust the system and they have no doubt that the election is secure

  • States have similar election systems of voting

  • The problem of voter fraud?

  • The problem of electoral fraud?

  • The problem of the fear of voter fraud?


    • I think that we should come up with a solution to voter fraud that entails a more uniform election system which also ensures citizens that they are voting in a safe and unbiased invironment. The solution encourages more people to vote because they are more confident that their votes count towards the election and it wont be changed
