Voting should be independently verifiable. Blockchain based. It should take place between noon and 12:15pm.

If there is no innovation that can make voting independently verifiable, democracy is obsolete.

..or, it must revert to 75 or so people who all know each other electing a rep to join 74 others they all know to elect a rep, to join 74 others to elect a rep, and so on, until 75 people vote for someone they all personally know.

According to Dunbar #, we can all handle approx 150 relationships. This means that each voting group would consist of half, or less, of 150, to elect a rep to join half, or less, of 150, and be responsible for knowing ≤148 others.

Democracy can't scale forever without independently verifiable elections.
