There is no need to short-circuit that process. The rule of law must prevail. The process is proceeding appropriately and peacefully, and all parties have pledged to abide by the eventual result. Even so, the American people are deeply and appropriately concerned. And that is why, after the outcome of this election is determined, we must make reforms to ensure a broad-based representative democracy in 21st century America.
American elections are a crazy quilt.
Ballots and administrative procedures vary from state to state, and even from county to county. Our system is a relic of the past that is lagging behind the rest of our 21st century democracy. For example, the next President of the United States may be determined by the placement of names on a ballot made by one county's officials. Voters in several states who registered when they renewed their drivers licenses found their names missing from the rolls on election day. We need a technology upgrade.
