- Section 1.
- Who can vote. The phrase "and shall elect" is meant to eliminate the possibility of a president, for instance, being "elected" with less than a majority of the votes cast. Note that the Electoral College is effectively made irrelevant and redundant by this provision.
- Section 2.
- The idea here is to eliminate any barriers to candidates, especially to lesser-known "write-ins".
- Section 3.
- The idea here is to require all ballots in all elections to provide only a place to write-in the name of the person to receive the vote for office in question, together with a requirement for simultaneous "registration" of voters. NO "party lines", or candidates "pre-chosen" by party or other means.
- Section 4.
- The idea here is to give people the time to reflect on their vote and to execute their ballots correctly. The organization and procedure will remain identical subject to the physical limitations of the media used to execute the vote.
- Section 5.
- With every constituent of an office a potential candidate it is unlikely that elections will be decided by a single poll.
