And adapt to what all of the other modern western democracies use. Here in Canada we have a state of the art system that is conducted with exactly the same way in every riding. This ensures a more controlled, and efficient and faster way of tabulating votes. We just had our federal elections, I'll forgive you if you blinked and missed them. No voter or election fraud stories, just the boring number results coming in on election night.

What is this advanced voting system that is now used in Europe, Australia and every other respectable nation?

PAPER BALLOTS.

It is the most marvelous system possible. As the human hand is a much more advanced machine than anything humans have invented. It is amazing to watch as you deftly hold a pen and scribe a giant X next to your choice of names. Then using both of these wonders of technology that we each possess, you fold it and drop it into a big box with a hole in the top. Later other hands and eyes will actually count each vote with representatives from all parties keeping a watchful eye on the proceedings.

This system is pretty well incorruptible, and no private companies are making any profit by it.
Perhaps one day you'all down there will advance to the technological level as Canada and the other Western Democracies and set up a system like this.

Good Luck
