Spindell proposed asking staff to come up with ways to make it harder to access the MyVote website, suggesting users be required to submit the last four digits of their social security or driver’s license numbers.
“(The lack of secure access to the site) is the elephant in the room and we can’t ignore it,” Spindell said.
Jacobs and fellow Democratic Commissioner Mark Thomsen balked at that idea, accusing Spindell of trying to make it harder to vote.
“We should not make it harder to vote and should not task staff to come up with new ways to make it complicated,” Thomsen said. “The easy way is just arrest the people who are committing fraud.”
The commission voted 3-3 on the proposal, with all three Republicans voting in favor and the three Democrats voting against. The tie killed the plan.
