sw: As for the issue of election fraud... the disadvantage of a secret ballot is that it is incredibaly difficult, if not impossible, to audit...
This sounds more like an article of faith than anything based on actual evidence.
Assumption A: The point of a secret ballot is to make sure that a specific ballot cannot be linked to a specific voter.
Assumption B: In the event of fraud there will be X number of fraudulent voters.
Conclusion: Because ballots can not be linked to specific voters (Assumption A) it is impossible to know which ballots are fraudulent, only that there are X number of them (Assumption B).
What do you find interesting about the manner in which people respond?
Hard to say, I just find it fascinating that out of deceptively simple motivations and interactions we get the entire range of human achievment. I might as well ask you why _____ is your favorite color?
