I think it is more in Aus and the price is rising yearly
I could be thinking of a different country though

Too many risks with online voting. If the voting process was administered by the federal government, it might be possible, but I don't see it happening under the current system
I remember the good old days, 3 months ago, when everyone knew and accepted that USPS was useless.
I'm sure the NSA has some encryption they can use to secure online voting and bots can scan for any oddities on the network. .
True, but it's somewhat less antisocial. I don't think many have died from second hand chewing tobacco, unless they are into people spitting in their mouth.

The last time I voted in person was the 2016 presidential election, and that was only because I had moved and didn't receive my mail ballot. Since then, I have voted in around 5 different elections.
I have had zero problems ensuring my ballot was not only received but also counted. Here's the ballot that I mailed on Monday:
Voting by mail is really easy and convenient for the non mentally retarded.
Thanks for this, I just put in a request for my wife and I to do mail in ballots.
As usual, you've blown past the point.
I can’t wait to find out that Russia owns the USPS when Trump still wins with mail in ballots.

You: USPS is useless.
Me: *shows how NOT useless USPS is*
You: THAT'S NOT THE POINT!!!!!!!
I agree a better system is needed but I’m not sure online answer. Many groups within society don’t have easy access to Internet or the necessary technology available, For example those who are very rural, many living in poverty, many seniors and others with disabilities.
I don't think it needs to be 100% online, maybe some combination of mail, in person, and online/cellphone app.
Me: It used to be everyone agreed that USPS was useless.
You: Well it worked for me! Durr, durr, durrrrrr.
Me: You need another SN bet?

So are you telling me you weren't saying that USPS is useless?
My mail people in my town are great. And they have services now like seeing scans of your mail and stuff. Idk it's been a pretty long time since things have been "lost in the mail" for me. The problem is that I get too much. Junk mail is just out of control, and I end up with piles and piles to sort through by the time I actually have time to look at anything.
Our mail gets lost all the time, we now know it gets lost because of the scan thing you mentioned. I can't even begin to tell you how much mail we have lost, we mark as lost, and never hear anything about it. We have rural carriers and no real post office, so maybe that's why.
He just doesn't get it.
I'm pointing out that USPS was universally accepted as a punchline until the second Trump criticized them. Now hald the country thinks they're the best thing since sliced bread.
