Early Voting – a Bad Idea

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The editorial this week in the Post and Courier on early voting (Reject Early Voting, October8) is right on the mark.

Sadly, more and more Americans are looking for the easier way, the faster way, the less painful way, the less inconvenient way to deal with the incessant demands on their busy lives.  Inconvenienced by a pregnancy?  Just get an abortion, never mind the snuffing out of a precious life. Late for work because you dallied or overslept or are hung over?  Just drive faster, never mind endangering others.  Aches and pains?  Just take pills, never mind changing life style as therapy and cure.  Tired of endless campaigning and overwhelmed by 24 hr instant news?  Just go vote early, tune out and hit the beach on election day.

“Carte Blanch” early voting is little more than a cop-out from the hard work of paying attention and seriously learning about the candidates and their positions on the issues, weighing their answers to tough questions, giving serious thought to the consequences of a voting decision. The right for citizens to vote shouldn’t be taken lightly..…it’s also a serious responsibility.  Compare early voting to a juror declaring in the middle of a trial, long before closing arguments: “Judge, I’ve heard enough.  I’m ready to vote now.”  How would that play?

Lawmakers that favor early voting argue that it will increase voter turnout.  Perhaps, but voters that pick their candidates several weeks before election day, wanting to avoid the inconvenience of possibly standing in a line in unpleasant weather, are doing no favors for the rest of us.  And, depending on outcome, many may live to regret their impatience.
