it's pathetically low in the US compared to most developed countries.
Thoughts?
Mine are: our voting system is very difficult for common people to participate in. I'm confused why we still use voting booths, locations to go vote, instead of using the technology available to us. I can purchase anything I want to from comfort of my own home but when it comes to my patriotic duties to vote and participate in democracy, I have to jump through hoops? I have to register to vote? Just look at my Texas DL.
