So far, we have introduced the structure of the elections, the problems that are currently occurring, and the solutions that are being taken to deal with them.
We mentioned that we are currently facing declining voter turnout. Among the reasons given for not going to the polls, one of the reasons was that they were hassling to go to polling places.
To reach our motive, "We want to reduce the decline in voter turnout among young people!", we discussed the "ideal way" so that young people can feel comfortable to go.
Themes we discussed (1)
Think about ideal vote!
Going to the polls is a hassle = Vote at home is easier = Digital voting can be realized?!?!
We will discuss whether it is possible to vote from home and what methods are available.
Can't we use "My number card" or something to link the information and vote?
Then people could do it at home!
Yes, the Internet is great idea because it makes it easier to do!
I like the ease of being online, but I might be afraid of injustice...
That's true. If it were "My number", people would not be able to vote anonymously, which is very important for elections.
Someday, if a system can be developed that allows anonymous voting using one's own number, one can vote from the comfort of one's home, but that system seems to be difficult to implement right away...
Then, what is possible "now"?
But I heard that people can't vote unless the resident card and the person match.
Wouldn't it go more smoothly if people go to the polling place and use "My number card" for identification?
I see!
Then, would you only use my number for identification, and voting would be the same as now, like going to the polling place?
Hmmm, not much different from now...
I guess people will have to go to the polls after all...
So let's think about the ideal location for a polling place!
Wouldn't it be easier to go to the polls if the polling places were closer to you?
