Global Voting System

The Global Voting System: Democracy at Your Fingertips

This is a proposal for a voting network that would span the world, bringing democracy to our world.

If you like this idea, vote 5 stars and leave comments... thanks!

This idea is still new, many details still need to be worked out. This video only covers the gist of what it will do and how it will work. While critics can be quick to point out some potential setbacks (inb4 disenfranchisement and abuse), the positives we can gain from a system like this make it definitely worth pursuing.

Update: Comments are disappearing and I don't know how to fix it.

How would this protect the individual, from the tyranny of the majority?

[Peacenik]

Well, there is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which we could abide by.

Global democracy would be far better for 99 percent of the world. Tight now we have a tyranny of a tiny minority, and it ain't working too well.

What an absolutely brilliant idea...5***** ...if only :-))

Great video too!

Thank you. When enough people demand something, with loud enough voices, they get it.

If we want global democracy, we can make it happen.

Voting: How to do nothing while feeling like you're doing something

[tibbledotnet]

what an absolute argument! in a perfect world this would be the case, but i have literally spent months with a whiteboard making calculations about this sort of global opinion polling and it is not possible unless you have a single point of entry to gather statistics - it must be open source, the database must be freely checkable by any and the data must be changeable at any time. for instance, see my website at tibble dot net to see what I mean. Join now and cast YOUR vote !!

One HUGE problem with our current computerized voting system is our inability to go in and see how our vote was counted.

In a rigged voting system this must never be allowed and until this capability exists all computerized voting systems should be rejected on legislative issues.

Until the so-called 'proprietary' vote counting computer source codes become public and we have leaders that don't spout, "I don't trust exit polls!", as an excuse to not having them, voting is a bad joke.

@Sleeko11 This is a very good point and I wonder how many know where the constitutional concept of, "The People" originated?

Hint: "Never judge a person until you've walked two moons in their moccasins."

It is written original native Americans called themselves "The People" and insisted on this in the Constitution in their attempts to protect their culture from being overrun by Europeans. (Indigenous Muurs/Moors.)

It's funny, a friend of mine came up with this idea independently at a party a few months ago; the fact that the GVS is similar demonstrates a trend towards some sort of technologized voting system for the world's citizens. I think this technology will become inevitable as we see an increase in telecommunications and information technology. This increase in global communications in conjunction with outdated voting methods will necessitate such a shift. I love and support you. Peace to all.

It looks nice, but only that. :)

It is to idealistic, and doesn't take into account the reality of human psychology, social behavior and differences in cultures and even subcultures. It looks like it's based on the (incorrect) premises that all humans wish only good thing for each other, and wouldn't try to abuse such a system for their own benefit. :)

Still, it's an interesting idea and good food for thought. :)

[TheWordOfBod]

it's a flawed system. i vote no on the issue...

[SputnikMedia]

I thought of this idea about 20 years ago.But my idea was to have it where you call an 800 number and you pressed 1 for yes and 2 for No on a list of issues up for a vote. then this data would be anlyzed to aid politicians in and law makers.

Wish I seen this vid sooner.... 5 Star btw!

Good work

It's a Pentagram and is in no way the symbol for the Illuminati......
