Daily News Exclusive: Some 46,000 New Yorkers are registered to vote in both the city and Florida, a shocking finding that exposes both states to potential abuses that could alter the outcome of elections.

Fine? How about some prison time (a felony conviction) with a fine to top it off? Just let them know that sure you can vote twice in one election, but it means you won't be voting in many other elections at all for a long time to come.

Like I've said to you before. Voter Fraud.

Now how do we get some do overs?

[Dionysius]

It'll never happen because the Dems would lose 25% of their base (illegals, quadruple voters, felons, the dead).

[Calpernia]

>>>Throw everyone of them in jail for felony fraud...take away their right to vote... for life

With all the corruption that is being investigated slightly under the media's radar...we have got to see some arrests. If we don't, all of our activism will be for nothing.

[Calpernia]

>>>this is old news .... it was talked about after the 2000 election debacle. And, some are not only voting in NY/FL, but Israel as well. At some point, someone has to clean up the rolls and punish those who have abused the system.<<<

Rishon Letzion connection? http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1196476/posts?page=18#18

Nice find, cal. A connection without question. The Cipels of the world have an extraordinary "sense of entitlement" and they labor under the delusion that they are entitled to gain advantage for their spurious causes by screwing up our political system. Cipel ambles off into the sunset and expects we, the people, to clean up his mess? It ain't gonna happen.

I'm pretty sure it IS illegal to register in two places. When you register to vote, you are to state your prior registration, and the County Registrar of Voters is to notify the prior location of your change. They fall behind on this miserably, "due to lack of funding".

So who's the criminal? Me (and thousands of others) 'cause I didn't unregister to vote, or the County Registrar of Voters?

Let's see.

46,000 * 0.68 = 31,280 illegal votes for Gore in 2000.

46,000 * 0.12 = 5,000 illegal votes for Bush in 2000.

Bush won the Florida election by an even more sizeable margin!

I like your site.

I'm sure if the media weren't so into the Swiftie controversy they would be all over the double voting (yeah, right).

You confuse BREAKING the law with ENFORCING of the law.

YOU are the CRIMINAL as you BROKE the law.

The county registrar of voters is a lousy, but not criminal, enforcer, for not throwing your sorry a$$ in jail.

Get it?

Prosecute them. Every last one of them.

[Drango]

Then the law sucks. People move all the time...we encourage them to register to vote. The burden to UNREGISTER in the old domicile is absurd and no one does it. No one.

Voting twice is a crime. Registering to vote in a new home without unregistering is more common than chewing gum and is not a crime IMHO.

Of the 46,000 registered in both states, 68% are Democrats, 12% are Republicans and 16% didn't claim a party.

Please notice that in the article (prior to this quote) -- They tell the story of a Republican who voted twice in several elections.

Yes, that was in the NY Daily News, but not the Yahoo & other stories. That's typical of the Daily News. OTOH, they mentioned that up to 1000 were guilty of this & since only 12% were Republicans...

[raccoonradio]

Where I live in Mass., I give my name and address at one table, vote, then give my name and address again at another table where I turn in my completed ballot. Here's the key: THEY DO NOT ASK FOR ID. Anyone could easily spot my name in the phone book, go to my polling place, and say that they're me. They don't ask for your driver's license or any other proof of ID. So if that should happen,
what if I show up at my precinct's polling place...only to be told, "I'm sorry, sir, we have your name crossed off
already. You already voted."

[NEPA]

We have a similar system for voting (I'm in PA). I think most places do. Only first time voters need to show ID per fed law passed after the 2000 mess. Republicans wanted everyone to show ID.

The Republican house in PA passed an ID requirement. In both cases, state and fed, Democrats screamed "disenfranchisement!" because poor Blacks and elderly don't have ID's. That has to be be total BS but the argument won in the Congress and with the cowardly PA Senate republicans who wouldn't move the legislation out of committee.
