Spoiler ... if you really are trying to suggest that there are no illegals in places like Michigan and Minnesota, then you are blind.

yes! here in calif democrat organizers practically drive "questionable" voters to polls, and all they have to do is give a name without ID. I'm sure something fishy is going on with that.

Look at Wisconsin. They're trying to recall their lame Republican governor (and I don't belong to any political party), and the main issue is fraudulent voter signatures.
But I think the losing party, or party in question, makes it out to be worse than it is. :)

"Disenfranchised voters" is the lamest excuse I have ever heard. I bet if they had to pick up a govt handout on the other side of the city, they would find a way.

The sanctimonious mentality (we know we're right so the ends justify the means) of people on the left is a main ingredient to their inherent ability to lie, cheat & steal far easier than conservatives. This is why when SOH asked "is it ok to cheat if it's for a good cause?"overwhelming yes from libs

There is NO downside to requiring citizens to have an id. Even if there were no voter fraud, every citizen should feel the obligation to ensure the vote is fair.

I'd like to think that its common enough, but not at a great enough amount to change a national election. Its certainly possible though.

I wonder if Reps really believe that voter fraud is that rampant or are they just looking to justify the voter ID bills passed in so many states (which the leaders know are mainly to disenfranchise poor and minority voters)?

I think it's a red herring to get the support to disenfranchise certain groups of people. It will get easier too when the SCOTUS overrules Article 5 of the voting rights act in a 5-4 vote.

Fraud happens on both sides. As long as humans run the show, there always will be. All we can do is try to eliminate it when we can, and take steps to minimize its effect on our elections.

Whoever said create a "secure" website to vote on does not know my nephew. There is no such thing in existence as security in a website. If there were, companies would do it and fire 90% of their it staff.

I love all the liberals who try to argue that voter fraud decided the 2000 election. Why don't you go back and look at Chicago when Kennedy was elected so that you can see what voter fraud actually looks like

If you don't think voter fraud is a major problem then you must be living in a hole this election. The GOP hasn't had a ligit vote count in half the states, that's why so many of them had to re-vote. Don't forget the handful of GOP chairmen stepping down from their positions out of shame!

Without the phony signatures, there's a significant chance that Obama would not have qualified for the primary ballot -- throwing the validity of the entire election into question.

You are so right about the corrupt FL election. I remember during the last election a Democrat election leader in New Mexico was arrested for driving from precinct to precinct with tens of thousands of freshly fraudulent absentee ballots. He also had several voting machines in his possession

Cont...We would know who voted for what and why (full profile details). It would open people eyes. To take it to the next level, my friend and I came up with a sort of "credit score" for voters. That way we are held accountable for our actions. If we make bad decisions our vote is less powerful.

What if U.S. CITIZENS were required to apply for a voting ID when turning 18 (if they wanted to vote)? Of course legal proof would be required and fraud would carry SERIOUS penalties. Then we create a secure website where WE THE PEOPLE vote (like this app)! Also need a daily tv show for results!

blackboxvoting and others have documented the fraud. Paperless voting machines have been compromised in tests and demonstrations. Voting is one activity that should produce a paper trail. One of the execs for a voting machine co. promised to deliver an election on record and others prosecuted.

adalla I mentioned Florida only as an example of how manual recounts and ballot inspections are triggered by close races, and despite the scrutiny, virtually no fraud is in covered, if any. That such a populous state still used paper punch ballots seemed anachronistic.
