    That’s a reasonable change. I definitely would encourage a reform of the voting district system, though. There is no reason for districts to exist or matter nowadays and they can be replaced by a fairly simple set of rules regarding how far polling places can be away from voters and how many there must be per X voters in the area.

      Why does it matter really if the results are in before November ends when they have all of December to prepare for an office they enter in January. In person voting from Nov 1st-30th should be fine. End the mail ins by the 15th or something and there shouldn’t be an issue.

        Transparency, mainly. If the results are clearly available there’s less opportunity to create confusion about them. But yeah, it’d be a minor change.
