I find this legislation well-written and the best plan possible to implement a secret ballot, but I have major concerns with putting a small committee in charge of tabulating and posting ballots. What I'm interested in is whether it is possible for one of our programming whizzes to make a website where a vote can be cast by a voter, the IP is logged along with the ballot, and at the end, ballots are posted with the IP Address and votes on them. Is anything like this possible?

I couldn't care less if someone knows who voted for who. The only reason I could support a secret ballot is to remove tactical voting from the picture. If anyone is whining about people seeing their vote on an internet sim, the can go eat bees.

As I said, the ballot ID is good, but I still don't trust whoever is counting the ballots, especially since many voters vote and don't pay attention afterwards.

The moderator would check the IPs in the best case scenario.
