Here's what will happen because of Ferguson:

59. Voting fraud by the people running the elections is a concern

I don't worry much about individual voter fraud - there is so little of it and not much incentive.

I worry a lot about the high percentage of disenfranchised citizens. Too many people have been convicted of things that should not permanently cost them their rights. Why should those people care about how this country is run when they have no say - it should be a cry equivalent to the "No taxation without representation!" Restore people's rights, let them vote, get them involved and they will have a bigger stake in their communities.

As for stopping election rigging: We need paper ballots - I don't mind having scanners for quick results, but with paper ballots there should ALWAYS be hand counts to verify the results. If that is done with proper supervision - representatives from each party and/or from each candidate - we can trust our elections
