Being an idea guy like you appear to be, I couldnt even begin imagine how to get started on implementing your idea!

I do like the idea of rewarding early voters someway to incent the behavior. That would, I believe, drive up voter participation rates. I dont need incenting to vote early, but I do want to do it in-person. I need the pagentry of physically voting, and frankly, I dont trust that my ballot would make it throgh the mail. Plus, if there’s any issue regading my elegibility or identification, I want to address it immediately and in-person!

Keep comin’ with the good ideas!

unless I've had a few beers.
I am watching the KNights game tonight and have an awesome IPA I've been indulging in (Torpedo IPA. I won't say the brand but it is semi-local in the mountains along the Nevada-California border)

is that we have virtually no presidential TV ads. Not that there would be any room. Every local stop set is nothing but political ads, albeit for congressional and legislative candidates, often with competing candidates back-to-back. I can’t wait for seed corn and Roundup commercials.
