Should every vote cast be given a tracking number?

that would be the right thing to do.

but of course if they did that, the powers that be couldn't put in office who they really wanted.

i, for one, will never believe that ALL the polls were wrong in NH that predicted obama would beat hillary.

just like i will never believe that all the polls were wrong when GWB ran the first time and predicted him as the loser.

yet, he supposedly did win, and we all know how much the country has suffered because of it too.

Because we need the secrecy of our vote. If there was a way to track who voted how then the gestapo Clintons could find the people that voted against them and eliminate them... ok maybe not that bad, but the implication is that it would be an infringement upon our rights as citizens and the govt would find a way to use that information to secure itself.

I think to keep the vote secure that there needs to be a method to determine that a legitimate voter has cast a ballot and that it can be done in such a way without revealing the content of that ballot.

I thought it was supposed to be anonymous. No fear of retribution, stuff like that. Feeling secure enough to cast your vote for whoever YOU think is the best man/woman for the job.

Democrats would have it that way. I have no problem with that, if it gets the people who are to dumb to figure out how to vote through the process without whining FINE!

And who is going to do the tracking? The political parasites who benefit from voter fraud? Anything devised by man can be circumvented by man, you know?

only if the democrats promise to imprison those who do not vote
