On a more basic level, I wonder if making voting "easier" is a good thing. Shouldn't people have to expend so energy to be able to exercise the franchise? I can envision an app where you go from playing World of War to voting in one keystroke.

I think a simple thumb scan set up would work.
I don't really see how making it hard to do helps democracy, voting should be as easy as possible.
The will of the people is usually the right course. In the 2000 election, Al Gore actually won by 500,000 votes. One must contemplate how much better off we the people would be if the people had prevailed over the Electoral College.
