3. Personally I would like everyone to get a personalized code
and either be able to vote via mail (postage paid) or via the internet... Some day we should all be able to vote via internet and see live results as they come in.

4. Fraud would still happen ...
in other ways.

What about the person (or mail carrier) who just steals your vote right out of your mailbox and throws them away.

5. I've voted by mail for the past several years and wish everyone
could/would vote that way. It is so nice to take your time and look over the Propositions and the other information before making your choice.
