This is why job 2, after Covid, needs to be federal election/voting reform


this needs to outlaw partisan gerrymandering. That could and should be a standalone bill to get passed immediately and be in force for the next redistricting.

Other mandates would be to force states to have equal availability of polling places, machines, drop boxes etc. Not to mandate the number but force states to distribute them equally per citizen.

There should be federal rules on who/how/when to drop somebody from a list of registered voters, signature/ID/privacy envelopes, etc for mail in ballots. etc.

I would happily trade a uniform set of fair rules for a national photo voter ID if that was done at both state and federal locations such as driver's license, social security, military recruitment, etc offices.
