Electoral processes are flawed and worsening since the 2000 election, posing a serious threat to democracy's integrity.
The 2000 presidential election in Florida showed that our voting system has many problems. Voter lists are wrong, election workers are not trained well, ballots are confusing, machines don't work right, and rules vary by state. These issues have not been fixed and have even gotten worse. The next close election could be a big problem, as judges now often pick sides based on their political party. This could make people lose trust in our elections and government. The Voting Wars book warns that our democracy is at risk if these problems are not fixed.
