I urge all Senators to vote against this: it would needlesly complicate elections, reduce turnout, make the game less interesting and introduce the possibility of fraud.

No:

7. This bill shall only have effect upon the ratification of a constitutional amendment removing such requirements as may be that constitutionally prohibit voting by secret ballot.

It doesn't take effect atm, though. The Amendment will hit the floor very soon.
And if the amendment fails?
