In Canada you can show up at the polling station and, with ID and a piece of mail addressed to you in the riding, register to vote in about 5 minutes. You then mark your vote on a little piece of paper using a stubby pencil. When the polls close the election workers open the ballot boxes, count the votes, and report them to Elections Canada and we know who won by midnight.

What the fuck is wrong with the US?
