Bad Idea
The right to the secret ballot is essential to our democracy. Does it allow for ballot box stuffing? Maybe. But it also protects us from undue influence from our political leaders, employers and others who would sway our votes via threats and intimidation.

No election will ever be perfect, but the loss of the secret ballot would be devastating.
