I believe that having an open, verifiable public record of events - of communication about and for ones government, past and future - during the voting process, should be treated as a public utility.

With this function, a vote not only becomes a static erg towards ones favoured party - but a way for the future government to a) be sure it was voted in without corruption, and b) address any corruption occuring during that process, based on open, public, verifiable data.

Yes, this is just theoretical, and thanks for the time anyway .. it was just a thought experiment.
