Secret Ballot? or Democracy?

Okay, so.. I do understand that people want to keep their vote secret, but doesn't that make voter fraud easier to commit and get away with? I would propose allowing people to choose which they prefer to do. If they choose to not vote secretly.. no rights being violated. Shorter lines for those who want to be secretive.

1. Make your decisions from the comfort of your own home. Go online to your voting site, make your selection, and click "Print Form". When you're ready, take your printed ballot along with your drivers license, the person at the voting location will verify you are who is on the drivers license, and you feed the ballot into a machine which confirms your vote.

2. Keep the old fashion way of voting for those who don't have the internet or want to vote more secretively. SSN + Drivers License or even a packet mailed with a special web registration number... so many simple ways... I think...

I think Primaries should change to have people vote on who they do not want in office. Don't you think that might have a better outcome? Lowest score move to Round 2.
