    I do know that you have to make the request early, and that all of our (military) ballots come through a central person who distributes it to the individual.

    I was under the impression that absentee voter fraud had more to do with losing, delaying or not counting ballots due to technicalities, real or percieved.

    In order for an illigetimate person to use an absentee vote, that person would need to make the request in the voters name. The request that I made asked for name, birthday, state and county/district, but this was through the military.

    Gah, I got nothing on hand, and no time to do the research (end of day deadlines) but I recall reading that the BIG vote fraud operations of the past involved fictitious people, dead people, and shut-ins being absentee balloted.

    In other words, you wanted to mess with an election, you used mail-in ballots. Makes much more sense than trying to do it with walk-in voting.

    Hasn't been a big case for a while, at least I don't think. Why mess with the mail when you can adjust a voting machine, or better yet, just fiddle the numbers a little bit at the back end? Much safer, much simpler.

    Allegations of vote-fixing on a massive scale, if ever proven and linked to the Republican leadership, would precipitate one of the biggest political shakeups in American history.

    Should we hope it's the case?

    No one will ever prove anything, and even of they did, no one would really be punished.

    We aren't even allowed to know who exploded our Presidents head on live television. Apparently, we can't handle the truth.
