Vote With Your Phone

Angebote / Angebote:

Democracy is broken because the way we vote is broken. But there is a solution: Mobile Voting.Our current government would have us believe that we are all divided, and topics like gun control, climate change, and healthcare continue to be heavily debated in congress. But Americans are not as divided as we think, and poll after poll shows that most of us agree on even our most divisive issues. The problem lies in how we vote. Low voter turnout continues to keep our elected officials on the far ends of the political spectrum, unable to compromise on even the simplest of policies. And even worse, our voting system continues to be heavily influenced by special interests among politicians who worry about their next elections and little else.Mobile voting could be the solution. We do just about everything on our phones, and yet we still can't use them to vote. But the technology exists, and it could exponentially increase voter turnout by: Simplifying the voting process Helping those who have trouble making it to the polls use their voice from anywhereProviding more security than traditional paper ballotsIncentivizing younger voters to participate by using technology they're familiar withFrom Bradley Tusk, philanthropist, and cofounder of the Mobile Voting movement, comes a deeply informative and timely analysis of our broken voting system, introducing us to the history, opposition, and potential of voting from our devices. Including essays by Martin Luther King Jr. III, David Hogg, and other prominent political figures, Vote with Your Phone shows us that a solution to restoring faith in our representative democracy exists ¿ and it's closer than we think.
