South Carolina is definently going to Bush, no doubt. Lots of Bush/Cheney signs here.

I'm OK with what ever side wins, as long as it is fair. I may not want Kerry, but if he wins on the up and up, well, I can suck it up for 4 years. But voter fraud, that really makes me angry. People have died to give us the vote. Do we let people just step all over that? Voting is the ultimate right. I wish it were in the Bill of Rights, because it is the right that protects all others.

Is there anyway to see if people vote in both states? If they do they need to be prosecuted..after proving they actual did the double vote and the dems didn't vote in their place.

Those republicans are at it again - trying to suppress the fraud vote - how dare they!?

North Carolina officials also are investigating two groups that appear to have submitted fake voter registration cards. An advocacy group known as ACORN, for Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has had trouble across the country because it pays workers to register voters, and some have decided to pad their work.

FINALLY.

Some Dimocrats that understand supply-side economics: incentives work.

Unfortunately, in this case, for an illegal outcome.

Add this to the story about NC having so many people registered here and in Florida!

Well, there are theoretical questions about a "national ID card" but with Social Security and with credit cards almost universal - and driver's license probably more so - it seems like a distinction without a difference.

Nowadays we have bar-code scannable driver's licenses. Can't we at least do cross checks on the people who have registrations and driver's licenses? Seems like a given state's Dept of Motor Vehicles is the state's identity bureau; you have to give significant evidence to get a DL, and they also provide, on similar proof, a non-license photo ID. It certainly seems that the DMV is the logical place to register to vote, and to check against multiple in-state registrations. And it seems that the states are pretty much set against granting a license to drive in one state without confiscating that person's preexisting out-of-state license.

That might not be complete proof against double registration, but it sure would control the problem somewhat if you had to get a non-license ID without using your license as ID in order to vote illegally in another state.

'Course the actual problem is the resistance of the Democratic Party to checks on vote fraud. That, and the fact that whether card-carrying or not, journalists are Democrats.
