Interesting story. Do you think the local GOP really wants to end this fraud, or do some look the other way, for certain reasons(I've heard Specter and Rendell have had some sort of 'gentleman's agreement')?
I don't know about any "gentleman's agreement", but I remember Democrats registering fellow Democrats as Republicans in order to control committee and ward seats, In other words the Republican committeeman was actually a Democrat. There is probably more of that now than ever.
