22. Which means
Real reform will simplify the whole she-bang.

The laws do not need to be so convoluted. They just need to be enforced. Hang a few election thieves from the gallows and most crooks will quit trying to crook the system.

(note that I am not really in favor of the death penalty, the gallows is just rhetorical term, K, yall?)

But once they see a few hanging in the public square, the rest will go back to their hidey-holes where they belong. Just as if you never had Highway Patrols - the speeders would always do their thing. Without putting some of the vote stealers away there is no great fear of being caught, is there?

And really, what crime is actually worse than stealing our democratic voices? Stolen consent means many innocents will suffer, indeed, have suffered.
