Gerrymandering, preference distortion through no proportional voting systems, Duverger's Law. I mean, I'm glad people are working on the problem-space of democracy, but I'd guess that other issues more greatly effect voter disenfranchisement and apathy.

One problem at a time. This wasn't specifically intended to address disenfranchisement. But commoditizing the infrastructure helps protect against "we don't have enough resources to let all these people in an underserved community vote."

In previous (recent) elections you hear about voting machines sitting in storage or running out of paper ballots. Having a mature and open voting infrastructure allows old, commodity hardware to be used (including paper) instead of expensive, proprietary machines that can go "out of date" and "no longer supported/updated."

You can't solve a political problem by providing access to tools.

Politics is all about which tools are used and how.
