IP Check?

Will there be IP checks in Atlasia? Citizen Alcon of Washington, a registered independent, thinks there should. He said, "Much has been made lately about suspected voter registration fraud by both sides in the District 1 election, and this got me to thinking about the current ease of cheating in Atlasian elections that could easily be defeated, or rather reduced to something requiring true dedication and not easily accomplished, through the introduction of a bill that allowed for IP checking for whoever votes."

However, the proposal was met with resistance from nearly everyone who commented. People said it would take the fun out of fantasy politics, it invades privacy, and reeks of facism.

The Mid-Atlantic News is against this, as it would take away the privacy of voters, and is overall unneccessary.
