LOL—I actually live in VA as well and 3 is really my preferred approach. I just think it should be fairly simple to accomplish, less upfront work I think. It will likely also reduce the challenges (see mfoley’s link) so keep the final results on track. But I’ve never actually voted (so kind of an odd question for me to be asking I suppose) and was completely unaware of that option.
Somewhat unrelated but perhaps might be interesting. If all states were to follow that plan—allow small numbers to come in an vote—if we allowed voters themselves to reserve an open voting slot in the 2 months before the official election day what would we see. I wonder what insights that might give value of campaigning in the last couple of months and what type of voter is influenced. Would those results match existing expectations?
