I have been VBM since the day I turned 18.
A few years back, my state changed the law and abolished local elections and gave the county control of all elections.
The change in law allows same day new voters and being able to cast a ballot anywhere in the state at consolidated voting centers.
There are far less voting centers than polling locations previous to the state law change.
California also rolled out new voting system equipment.
This new system being the same as the ditched systems in other states.
Dean Logan could not re-count a local sales tax measure with the new system because he had to find ballots cast anywhere in the state!
Previous, Dean "lost" ballots in Washington state that cost an election.
The new digital voting equipment had major network problems at the roster level on full parade during the primary.
Dean Logan rolled out a major new system for voting during a general election year.
What could possibly go wrong?
-local volunteer poll workers that can't fix network issues at the state level that results in hours long wait to cast a ballot
-major logistics to get back local ballots for a second look
These issues all still exist.
The 2020 general election is sure to make it in front of a court!
