As I said before, though:
Your vote doesn't REALLY matter, and never has. It's nothing more than a guideline to tell the electors how we think they should vote, but they're under no obligation to obey it. You should read this article:
There is no Constitutional provision or Federal law that requires electors to vote according to the results of the popular vote in their States. https://www.archives.gov/el...e/electors

I want to be able to go see how my vote was counted and if it was counted. Now, there is no way to tell if your vote was counted or how. We don't even know who counts our votes. I just don't trust this system.

It really doesn't matter if it's true or false, 1048. It's all about intimidating and scaring people. And removing the anonymity from their vote does exactly that.
I'll give you another example. When I was a kid, my dad used to go in the voter booth with my mom to tell her how to vote. His argument was that she didn't know any better, but looking back... he was also able to make sure she voted the way he wanted.
What problem are you trying to correct, 1048?

And I hate to point this out to you snowflakes but some of these people who you refer to as GUN NUTS are democrats. I know of several who have decided to leave the party.

Maybe... but all it takes is one self righteous zealot that thinks God wants him to kill all Democrats and that Trump will pardon him.
Isn't that what this n that once posted?

You miss understand the so called gun nuts. Most of them are more concerned with you having freedom then you are.

No, but I don't know any of your real names, either.
Do you think my elderly mother would feel safe openly voting against Eddie Settle right now, knowing that he has the gun nut support?

1048, that's actually how the electoral system works. Your vote doesn't REALLY matter, and never has. It's nothing more than a guideline to tell the electors how we think they should vote, but they're under no obligation to obey it.
If ballots weren't secret, though, don't you think there are just enough psychos out there that would hunt down anyone that voted in a way they didn't like? Just the threat of that would be enough to prevent a lot of people from voting.

How do you know how your vote was counted? You can't even tell us who counted your vote. It could be that a bunch of unknown people just made up numbers.
