All seem reasonable to me.

AMHERST, Mass. – A new nationwide University of Massachusetts Amherst/WCVB poll released today finds that Americans support a wide variety of election reforms, including both those that make voting easier, but also enacting voter ID requirements.​
“From automatic registration to making the option to vote by mail a permanent fixture of American elections, clear majorities of Americans favor making voting easier in the United States,” says Tatishe Nteta, associate professor of political science at UMass Amherst and director of the poll.​
“There is something for both Republicans and Democrats to like – or hate – from what Americans think about electoral reform,” says Raymond La Raja, professor of political science at UMass Amherst and associate director of the poll. “To the chagrin of Democratic officials, the most popular reform is to require all voters to show ID to vote, with 67% of voters supporting this, and roughly a majority saying they strongly support it. It is most popular with Republicans, with an overwhelming 94% supporting it, compared to 71% of Independents and 45% of Democrats. On the other hand, voters love a basket of reforms pushed by Democrats – overall, 57% favor making it a permanent option to vote by mail, 61% want Election Day to be a national holiday and 60% favor allowing former felons to vote after serving time.”​

 
YouGov interviewed 1,151 respondents who were then matched down to a sample of 1,000 to produce the final dataset.

Not a large enough sample. That said, no to mail in voting. Felons should be able to vote after the cases are dismissed. Yes to Voter ID as well.
 
Not a large enough sample.
Typical of democrat/msm polling, UMass? C'mon man.

Now it's used as a propaganda tool rather than providing real information. Pretty sure that thousands of people with sociology degrees have been found sitting in their restrooms rocking back and forth holding a box of razer blades.
 
Why do we even bother with pretense anymore?

Let's just have a council of billionaires who own almost everything, run everything.

I mean, that is what is going on now. . . why do we have all the machines, the illusion of voting, and this complicated modern day Three-card Monte ?

. . . we know, in the end, which policies are going to be passed, and who it is all going to benefit in the end.

Yep.

Sure 'effin feels exactly like that.
 
More people voting is scary......

To a conservative
Ah. . . so you actually believe that there is a difference in which party, politicians, or that they aren't all "conservative," for the policies that matter?

If you continue on this path, you will do more harm than good. You guys need to pull your heads out and decide whether you want to see every election in the future considered a coup. That's where we are at as a country right now.

So felons are allowed to vote, do they also have the right to go out and purchase a firearm?
