But then someone can hold a gun to your head and make you prove how you voted. And if you voted the "wrong" way, they blow your head off.
I could see the FBI hunting down people who voted the wrong way, since they are so corrupt now.
Or a milder version: to get a job or insurance, you have to prove you voted the "right" way.
The point of totally secret ballots is to prevent this kind of intimidation or round-up of dissenters. How to guarantee voter security?
A random number generated below 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 can be generated, that is associated with the the ballot, only known to the voter

I totally disagree with you.
If people are so scared to declare who they voted for, there is no democracy to begin with.
Vote should be open with "FU" to anybody who discriminates based on that.
Mughals were doing all kinds of atrocities on Bharti people.
The creation of Khalsa was that "we will stand with our convictions and dress code" and face what may come.
If US voters can't do that they don't deserve a vote.

Sidney Powell has moved to dismiss Dominion's defamation lawsuit. She argues that when she accused Dominion of being part of an election-rigging scheme with ties to Venezuela, "no reasonable person would conclude" those "were truly statements of fact"
Powell argues she can't be liable if the information she based her "opinions and legal theories" on were actually unreliable, comparing herself to reporters who get 1A protection when they cite sources; but she later also makes clear she disputes that her info was "false"
Powell also raises jurisdictional and venue-related arguments, basically saying the parties + allegations lack sufficient ties to DC and the case should be moved to Texas
