In Canada, you must show ID to vote, cast a paper ballot, which is counted by hand
Because we're alt right racists
Discussion
I mean, obviously 👀
The way it should be done
That’s just because the US State department has not needed to overthrow your government (yet)
Same in damn Germany.
Hello, I am Samantha Carpenter and this is my 200 nephews, I swear they are legit to vote.... please count them in... ty
Not really a fair comparison because Canada has a fraction of the population of the US (40 million vs 337 million). It also ignores the fact that computers are infinitely superior at quick and accurate tabulation. Hand counting introduces unacceptable human error to the tally process. Humans will never be faster or more accurate than computers. Finally, our voting machines, which are fully audited and certified, produce a paper ballot receipt that's used in the post-election audit process. There's always room for improvement, but you should at least be intellectually honest about your perspective, and the actual reality of what you're talking about.
Counters scale linearly, our cities are just as big as American cities
More voters = more counters
It's absolutely identical
More counters = more errors
Every human you employ in the hand counting process introduces more tabulation errors. It's dumb to hand count millions of votes and expect accurate tallies.
Almost as dumb as having closed source, government contracted machines that don't require ID and expect no bugs or no fraud
Show me evidence of fraud that has impacted the results of any election. For all the self-serving ranting about voter fraud by Republicans, virtually every instance of voter fraud in the past 20 years has been perpetrated by Republicans. The fact is, voter fraud is exceedingly rare, and has never affected the outcome of any election. But when it does happen, it's the people screaming about the loudest. Blinding hypocrisy.
Copium.
The way America votes is arcane opaque and does not garner trust. Full stop.
It’s pathetic. No serious engineer would design it this way.
Dems design it so they can cheat.
So you have Justin Trudeau and it's legit? 😨
Yep, it's legit. Our people are retarded and nobody disputes it.
The BC election that just took place had electronic counters
Ha, I didn't know that. Haven't been keeping up with what's happening there. I'm assuming that's why the counting of ballots has been a pain in the ass?
I suppose so. It's so weird how the last election cycle has been so full of week long "verifications" of who won. More weird that nobody seems to care or think to suspect foul play.
In Switzerland we get the voting enveloppeby mail, sign a piece of paper with our name on it and confirm with our birthdate (I guess to prevent a random person to vote for you but I don't know if it's checked), put the vote ballot in a separate section of the envelope (it's special 2 sides enveloppes) and we mail them back or drop them in a special collection box at the municipality.
Quite easy, as it must be, we have to vote 4 times per year for law changes and about every 2 years for electing people.
