I actually read a little about mail-in voting in this case in Pennsylvania. I know how it works in general: - You ask your local administration for registration and then need to apply for mail-in voting where they check that you are an US citizen, 18 year old, live in the state for at least 30 days and had not a felony conviction in the last 5 years. - They send it to you when it's time. - You make your cross and put it in the inner envelop. No names or signatures there so noone knows what you personally voted for. - You sign the form and put the form and the inner envelop in the outer envelop and send it back or drop it in the box. - They open the outer envelop and check your signature and registration and cross you off a list so you cannot send a 2nd one or someone else is voting with your credentials. - The inner envelop is securely stored and cannot be opened before 7PM on election day to be checked and counted. But although this system was pretty water-proof and there have only been a handful cases of mail-in voting fraud over decades they raised security even a little more. - Apparently you now also need to also bring Voter-ID when you want to register for voting and apply for mail-in voting - You can now follow your mail-in vote like a package-tracker on a website. Once they checked the outer envelop against the voter registry they put a barcode on it and feed it the computer. You can see that online to check if your vote was received and accepted for counting on election day. I find that quite reassuring to make sure everything was okay with the mail-in ballot, that it will be counted on election day and that they not remove your vote without you knowing or when they removed you from the registration list without your knowledge.

Pennsylvania has 13 mio people and the mail-in ballots are not counted before 7PM. Meaning from 7PM to next day they need to count them and add them to the in-person votes. This simply takes time. Ironically the GOP made this rule. Other states are allowed to count the mail-in ballots earlier to have a headstart.

Communism for Dummies: "When the means of production are owned by the people" Simpler: Noone owns any companies or farms or factories all belong to the people. All profits are shared by the people but also all costs. Most are surprised about this core principle of communism. Doesn't sound so bad after all does it? But of course there are some issues coming with trying to apply this principle in real world, mostly bad management, inefficiency, motivation, corruption like in each company even under capitalism. But the principle sounds not so bad. The main problem of communism is proper management because you need not only to manage a single company but a whole country. And I recently thought if AI may help out here. AI is good at optimizing. It works on principle, cannot be corrupted and is not selfish or greedy. What it does not mean: - You still need to work. No free-bees not even in communism. - You still get a wage, but you also get a bigger share of the revenue/profits or the products are simply cheaper. - You still need to buy things as usual everywhere but the prices are set by the central management and eventually by supply/demand. What it does mean: - All core services of society: Water/Power/Communication/Waste Disposal are cheaper because there is no middle-man/stockholder anymore and the company prioritize service over profit and cost-coverage over profit and apply proper maintenance, top-tech and low-maintenance and so on. - Healthcare is cheaper, because there is no middle-man anymore and no stockholders. - Housing the same, all is rent, but much cheaper because your rent is used to build more houses. - The list goes on and on. But the main problem is controlling all this smoothly. Hence my idea with AI.

@danialhillmann5374 Not quite. Of course you need people to control it unless you can AI become the controller somehow. Jobs under communism are like jobs under capitalism. You have qualifications and requirements for jobs. There is of course some central management of jobs according to needs. And you still need to work when you want some luxury/extras above the minimum. But if you cannot or choose not to work you are provided enough to survive (housing, food, healthcare) but it's just survival not really living. And nothing is free. You still have money and need to buy stuff in supermarkets and malls or online. And when the money is gone you can buy no more. I find it interesting that people have such a strange imagination about communism. Economic/living is not that different and not the lazy utopia or hell people fearmonger about. The core problem of communism was always control/management because there humans flaws sets in (greed, corruption, selfishness, etc) and because it needs to control the economy of a whole country not just one company or household. This is also the point where the issues with one-party, dictatorship and control begins because some people don't want to share and some want to control everything.

@Reubenhubert As I said management of this system is the key problem. The people who control everything because there begins corruption, greed, problems with motivation and human nature with control-freaks and people who just want to tell others what to do without consequences. AI doesn't have this.

Funny observation BTW: Have you realized that companies (even under capitalism) are all little autocracies? There is a person or group who owns, control and plans everything, but there is usually no voting whatsoever you can only choose to leave the company and there are some laws preventing bad things happening to you in the company.
