No. This approach resulted in a great deal of voter fraud in New Hampshire in the past. If you mean people should be able to register to vote on election day, perhaps. They should not be able to vote on the same day that they register.
Reduce taxes.
Allow the free market system to resolve the demand for housing. Encourage potential home buyers to move to locations where housing is much more affordable.
Place them in the homes of members of the LWV, and those that make donations to democrats holding elected office.
Current infrastructure transportation systems are being renewed as we speak and my district has bus transportation which should be reviewed for cost effectiveness annually.
