Given all the recent problems with registration, early voting and provisional ballots, what can we agree on?

I support all the above rules.

I'm glad to see #6 (absentee ballots only for true absentees) at 5/5 right now.  I think Oregon's all-mail ballot is a bad idea that would be a disaster if applied to larger states.  Absentee ballots have turned into a means to an end; the end being increased turnout without regard for fairness and accuracy.  It is time to return absentee ballots to their original purpose.
