This evening, my wife and I went to the early voting.
When I went to the polling station for the election, there were more than a dozen staff members waiting for me, even for the early voting.
Even if we only consider the labor costs at the polling stations, I realize that "elections are really expensive.
At the very least, I thought, if I shortened the voting period by one day, I could easily raise enough money to pay for a year's worth of cultural club activities at some junior high school or high school.

Since the ministries and agencies are forcing convenience stores to do the window work by using my number card (it's easier for me too), why don't they make it possible to hold elections with my number card?
The reason why this is not currently possible is as described here.
It would certainly be risky to suddenly move to online voting, so I think it would be a good idea to create something like a "special zone for digital voting" and start with a small-scale trial operation.
Alternatively, they can use engineers like me to do a demonstration experiment.
If someone asks me to do both analog and digital voting, I'll take it in stride. I'm sure I could get 100 to 1,000 volunteers across the country in no time.
I have high hopes for the Digital Agency.
Aside from that.

Whenever I was asked to fill out a form for the National Review of Supreme Court Judges, which is held during the House of Representatives election,
I'm marking them all with "X(negative)" perfectly.
This is a protest against the screening system that only allows "X" instead of "○".
If it's unstated, it means "confidence" This approach, which is adopted by many dictatorships, makes me feel bad.
