I was thinking about all of the controversy over electronic voting the other day, and I wondered why more states don't follow Oregon's example and require mail-in voting for everybody? It's cheaper, more convenient, more secure, and more consistent (in that the same process is used for everybody). It also reduces the effect of polls and last-minute advertising (because many people, like me, will already have voted long before election day). And it provides a permanent paper record to boot. Seems like the optimal solution all the way around.
