    Should our voting system allow citizens to vote remotely, by electronic means, rather than making them attend a polling stations?

    Only if they can perfect some kind of verification system to prevent fraud. We already have a problem with absentee/early voting ballots that are mailed to homes. Who knows who is actually filling them out?

    I think there's enough trouble with voter fraud as it is so for the foreseeable future, no.

    There would be too many issues it would cause. For those who can't get to the polling place, there is the option already.

    Well, if only they could make it foolproof. But for the most part, it should be left alone.
