Yeah, they just might find a lot of them, but can they find all of them, or enough of them? I think this situation is unique. Questions really need to be asked. If some of these folks have established residency requirements elsewhere, who will keep them from voting in both their old home and their new home? If they have a job, can it seriously be expected they will go back "home" at some point? And why do they get to vote someplace they don't live? And as a previous poster said, can they truly be such dunderheads to vote for these assholes again? Why would they even care? They don't live their now. How will the recipient communities react to this new kinda carpetbagging? Seems to me that in the really red areas, those idiots might be laughed at, they really are pretty funny if this whole thing were'nt so pathetic

I think it's more likely the corrupt Dems will just vote in their name. People who have established residency elsewhere are probably glad to get out of there and could care less who wins or loses in LA. It's obvious now Blanco et al only used these people for their votes. If anyone really cared, they would have fixed the levees that protected the lowest lying areas where these people lived.

I wondered at the time if the reason they didn't want to evacuate was displacement of their loyal voters - many of whom probably couldn't afford to leave on their own.

There is already a significant and documented problem in this country with double-registered voters - living in one state and voting there, and still maintaining absentee status in another state and voting there. Real "campaign reform" would set up some type of unified cross-check system to stop such abuses. But I'm not holding my breath.
