Our country has lost confidence in the election process. It's clear that our system needs an overhaul, and it's not too soon to start thinking about ways to prevent 2020's disastrous outcome. The following proposal, which optimizes transparency, would restore voter confidence in our election process.
Confidence through Redundancy
Designers working on data-processing systems for satellites where physical repairs are difficult use triple-modular redundancy, which triples the hardware units processing each piece of data. "Voter" hardware would look at each result and accept a result only if it achieved two or more matches. Accounting's double-entry system is based on a similar concept

With Democrat/media/corrupted government complex, there doesn't seem to be a way to uncorrupt the system.

First, clear all of the voter registrations every 4 years, and make people register again. Second, a National Holiday for voting, midnight to midnight, so everyone has a chance to vote. Third, Absentee voters must be approved by a judge. Fourth, everyone gets a finger dipped in indelible ink.

One problem, for those who cheated their way back into power this was hardly a "disastrous outcome", so they have no desire to prevent it from happening again. 2016 was our last real election unless President Trump pulls a rabbit out of his hat, and time is running out.

Any voting machine software should be open source and subject to scrutiny by computer professionals for security and integrity. In particular, no voting machine should store votes in double floating point formats only integer. Any software that contains functions that in any way alter the fundamental additive function of a counter should be barred from any certified system. Access to any of the voting machine ports including network adapters should be monitored in real time by all parties using software that can detect any non-authorized IP address based on a predetermined whitelist of valid destinations.

KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid)
Requirements for any voter ballot with Federal candidate on it:
1) purging of registration at regular intervals. You want to vote? Re-register with current address within that State-legislated interval.
2) Photo ID ... want to open a bank account? Buy a gun?. Which should be more closely guarded? Is the franchise is less important than mercantile or 2nd Amendment considerations?
3) Paper ballots. Counted under supervision of bipartisans, count entered into the record under supervision of bipartisan team. Ballots retained under guard for recount if needed.
4) No votes counted which arrive after 23:59 on Election Day.
5) Purple dye on finger of voter.
Does anyone REALLY need Norman Rockwell to draw them a picture of simple/secure?

Our elections do not need an overhaul so much as they need to go back to a previous time when Early voting was not allowed, When mail in ballots wee only for those who requested them for good reason. When Vote counters were human and not afraid to be watched by either party.

#2 - dittoes. I support a national holiday for voting at least at the national level. In lieu of a national holiday make it law that an employer must allow an excused absence for the purpose of voting. The employee then must vote and receive a receipt from the poll workers in order to not be docked in pay. If someone takes the day off and returns with no receipt, they just took an unpaid day off and are possibly subject to their employers termination procedures. I am not so much in favor of this system as it places an unneded burden on the employer but some version of it may be needed.
I agree that motor-voter and other unrelated voting registration systems must be abolished. Only mail-in votes that will be counted are overseas military and those that were requested early. Non-military early requests must have proof of absence on voting day to be allowed.
Of course stand-alone voting machines with no internet capability are a must. Also a system wherein the voter has a registration number of their vote that they can check how their vote was counted after the fact. I am afraid that the days of the 'secret ballot' are just about over thanks to the ever increasing amount of leftist cheating schemes.

I've got a plan also: ONE day voting, in person, photo ID, NO mail in ballots, absentee only if in hospital certified by doctor, paper ballot and black pen, thumb in inkpot instead of those stupid stickers. NO electronics involved, EVER. If they don't use it, then it can't be hacked.

The software simply needs to be error free and algorithm free with no way for the polling place to modify it. Positive ID. Has this person voted more than once in this election? Is this state his tax home? Is voter an American citizen? Is the voter alive? If any answer is no, send the ballot to an analysis group with the power to arrest or deport. This will eliminate fraud as well as eliminate the democrat party.

I've got a radical idea: how about in-person precinct voting the day of the election with a voter list check, signatures, and IDs required, with only exception being absentee ballots with proof of need which MUST arrive on or before the election day? Not only is it much more secure, but the results are known within 24 hours. When successive batters deliberately erase the lines of the batter's box, it only affects a boy's game. When successive generations deliberately erase the integrity of the vote, the result is diabolical.

Complexity equals the opportunity for corruption. To create trust, an election system must be honest, secure, fair, and transparent. Technology is the enemy of transparency.
It's not necessary to use technology for elections.

A perfectly workable method to eliminate vote fraud.
The only problem is that the Democrats would never, ever permit an honest, uncorruptable system to be used.
