Apple& #39;s @tim_cook told @karaswisher yesterday that casting ballots on smart phones seems like a good idea. It& #39;s not. https://www.businessinsider.com/apple-ceo-tim-cook-on-voting-technology-iphones-smartphones-2021-4">https://www.businessinsider.com/apple-ceo...

When you bank online, both you and the bank know how much $ should be in your account, and you both check to make sure nothing funny happens via hack or fraud or otherwise. With a secret ballot cast online, by definition, no one does that checking.

We& #39;re all for thinking of creative ways to expand access to the franchise, but at a moment that far too many Americans believe the lie that large-scale election fraud happens in the U.S., internet voting is exactly the wrong way to go.
