" If it's too big a problem to vote on the designated day, STFU and stay home!"

Easy to say but what about those of us who travel, or are unable to make it to a polling place due to physical limitations? Military? Let's put some thought into this!

I didn't say that absentee voting should be stopped. There is a legitimate need for absentee voting but the states that have gone beyond absentee voting into areas of "voting anywhere in your state" or "voting up to a week early" have made it virtually impossible to prevent fraud.

The act of voting shouldn't be so difficult so as to diminish the expression of the popular feeling but it should be difficult enough to prevent the blatently fraudulent circuses that were seeing around the country.

I also think that if someone is caught illegally voting, that person should have their voting priveleges stripped and they should do some serious time in the slammer.
