Why American Elections are Flawed, and How to Fix Them
From the abstract:<p>&gt; deepening party polarization over electoral procedures, the vulnerability of electronic records to hacking, and the impact of deregulating campaign spending, compounding the lack of professional standards of electoral management.<p>All of these things people have rightly been complaining about for years. It would be good to get some recognition of them.<p>&gt; Section 4 considers pragmatic reforms designed to strengthen U.S. electoral laws and procedures, recommending expanding secure and convenient registration and balloting facilities, [...] and strengthening impartial dispute resolution mechanisms.<p>.. but here we hit the problem: too many Americans no longer really believe in &quot;impartiality&quot;. This is the guiding theme of the Trump campaign, that anyone who disagrees with them is a lying partisan.<p>Not to mention that the Republican party have spent years working against &quot;convenient registration&quot;, instead preferring partisan disenfranchisement through voter ID and similar measures.
