Provisional ballots where you attach your personal information. If it was found later that you had voted in more than one place your ballot would not count.

This comes from legislation passed by Congress after the last election.

Of course the election would be long over and were not going to overturn it after the fact, are we?

"your vote won't count". Well, if that's the only penalty for fraud, what does a cheatin' liberal have to lose? They should be punished to the fullest extent of the law if they vote twice. Period.

How does one determine whether to disallow a Democrat ballot or a Republican ballot when the system sanctifies the secret ballot?

Are the ballots marked in some way to enable them to be matched to the person who voted, and if so, what then about the principle of the secret ballot?

Just asking. I am not a US voter.
