Ramaswamy proposed mandatory ‘Electronic At-Home Voting’ to fight election fraud.

Republican Presidential Candidate ​Vivek Ramaswamy’s Vision for‌ Voting Reform

Republican ⁢presidential candidate Vivek​ Ramaswamy has proposed ​an innovative and controversial idea for transforming the voting system in the United States. Before launching his presidential campaign, Ramaswamy advocated for an entirely electronic,​ remote, and ‍mandatory‌ voting system.

Following the 2020 presidential election, Ramaswamy took to social media to promote his idea of “electronic​ at-home voting.” He argued that this approach could effectively reduce fraud and eliminate voter suppression. In a tweet, he suggested a universal system where ⁣every adult citizen would receive one ballot​ per Social Security Number, ‌even allowing for blank ballots if desired. Ramaswamy emphasized that this system would ⁤not only prevent fraud but also increase civic engagement.

Electronic at-home voting. Make it universal; submit a ‍blank ballot if⁣ you want. One per SSN for‌ every ​adult​ citizen. No ballot fraud. No voter suppression. No wasted money on “get-out-the-vote.” Most importantly: greater civic engagement. Thoughts?

Ramaswamy further expressed his desire to make this voting system mandatory. He believed that‌ by ​implementing such a system, ⁣the nation could⁤ ensure the integrity⁣ of elections and eliminate any doubts ‌surrounding the legitimacy of the results.

I’m suggesting making it mandatory.

However, Ramaswamy’s past remarks⁤ have resurfaced after ⁣a recent interview with NBC News,⁢ where he​ presented a different reform plan. In this interview, he proposed “single-day voting on Election Day,” “paper ballots,” and “government-issued ID matching the voter file.” This ⁢shift in ​his stance has raised questions and garnered attention.

Former Vice President Mike Pence’s presidential campaign responded to Ramaswamy’s remarks, ⁢highlighting the inconsistencies between his recent statements and his previous book, “Nation ​of Victims.” ⁣In the book, Ramaswamy praised Pence for his actions on January‌ 6,​ 2021, during the Capitol riot and expressed his ⁤belief ⁢that the election was not stolen.

Ramaswamy’s campaign later released a statement ‌addressing ‌the criticism and clarifying his election integrity platform. The⁢ campaign emphasized that Ramaswamy advocates for a practical ​solution to address concerns about election ⁢security and aims ⁤to lead the nation towards‍ accepting election results without questioning their outcomes.
