If you want to vote, you get your voting card and an ID and go vote, where you get a piece of paper with names on it.

One name per line, you use a pen and place your "x" on the the same line as the person you vote for. Thereīs no confusion and things happens smoothly.

Why is it so difficult to even get to vote in the US ?
And even if you get to vote, you have machines that doesnīt work or are preloaded with votes or you canīt figure out the punchcards etc. etc.

Itīs seem ridicolus (spelling?) - Sorry, if I offend any US webmasters, but honest itīs seems like the very essence of stupidity.

Im going to put on my tin foil hat and say the reason its not simple is because "they" do not want it to be simple. Someone has a lot of control over the outcome of the elections the way the process is currently set up. After this election I think we are going to see huge changes. You would think these changes would have happened after 2000, but I guess one state being the main fuck up wasn't enough to force big changes.
