An analysis of state-wide records by the Poughkeepsie Journal reveals that 77,000 dead people remain on election rolls in New York State, and some 2,600 may have managed to vote after they had died. The study also found that Democrats are more successful at voting after death than Republicans, by a margin of four-to-one, largely because so many dead people seem to vote in Democrat-dominated New York City.

That's why electronic voting machines with no paper trails scare me - what can, and probably will, happen in the major cities.
Think what the "original" Mayor Daily could have done with them.
Hillary is confident she has won over this group of voters anyway!
It's unfair to expect the dead to provide a picture id...
I am sure its covered by Harkin's ADA legislation!
kinda hard out here in the boondocks though where everybody pretty much knows everybody else... this primary was the first time since 1976 i was ask my party affiliation. a couple new workers, the guy didn't know me at all, the woman knew me by sight and name just not my party.
its the year 2006, we should be well past dead voting, this sh*t has to stop. Yeah i can see if JOe died 3 days ago, but we are talking about people that have been dead for years. purge the voter roles before every election. of course some idiot will get to say he didnt vote because he moved to 15 different districts in 3 months. but then since there is no voter ID i really dont see what the problem is.
How do you tell the difference between a dead Democrat and a live one? I can't think of an answer.
No surprise, I am convinced this is the ONLY way democrats win elections these days. Voter fraud that they are allowed to get away with over and over.
Just another reason why Upstate needs its own state.
"Democrats are more successful at voting after death than Republicans"
Makes sense as they are dead from the neck up while still alive.
They don't need to stoop, they are already crawling around down there in the muck.
No Mr. Faso, you're still not going to win.
Is 'Voting While Dead Disorder' covered by Medicaid? LOL!
How is this possible?
A few weeks ago in a NYT editorial against voter ID's, it was stated " there is no evidence of voter fraud"
I guess there is no use protesting. The dems would only play the dead people vote discrimination card.
The Dems are great at getting out the graveyard vote in Philadelphia also.
There are 300 year-old people still voting in Rio Arriba County, NM.
Maybe a death certificate can be included as valid ID.
After a while, the dead one's stop stinking.
