Amid rising concerns over election integrity in the U.S. as the 2024 presidential election approaches, various states are debating voting methods and access. Critics of ranked-choice voting argue it complicates the electoral process and can lead to 'exhausted' ballots, undermining the principle of one person, one vote, prompting several states to ban the method altogether. In Michigan, a recall election ousted a clerk for her handling of voting equipment and skepticism about election legitimacy, reflecting a broader demand for accountability among election officials. South Dakota has enacted stricter voting laws, including banning unmonitored drop boxes, while Michigan has expanded voting access through ballot measures. Noncitizen voting has also emerged as a contentious issue, with several jurisdictions allowing it in local elections, raising fears among Republicans regarding potential voter fraud. These developments illustrate the ongoing national debate over electoral integrity and access leading up to the critical 2024 elections.
