Rejected petition Introduce online voting.

Keep voting in polling stations but allow people to vote online with an I.D check like you would use to open a bank account or other official business online.

More details

It would lead to fairer democracy as fewer people would miss poling days, people on holiday would be able to access it and would encourage people who don't normally vote.

In this technological age it's simply unnecessary we should have to take time out of ever busy lives to go to the polling station should we not want/need too.
