As a Canadian, I am a little confused at how the fraud can be perpetrated in the first place. I am a Polling Clerk for our upcoming election this October 14th, and everyone coming in to vote at our Polling Station, is on a Voter's List. Here's a link to how we compile our voter's lists in Canada (if you're interested). Elections Canada Online We use paper ballots, and we have our polling results very quickly. Polls open at 9:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., ballots are counted immediately, and then we go home. One name - one ballot, proper i.d., oversight and double-check, and no problems with voter fraud. We also have advance polls. The system is nation-wide, identical in all provinces for the federal elections. Not trying to toot our own horn, but this system really works well. I hope the U.S. can come up with a solution to the voter fraud problem, starting with the disbanding of ACORN!!!

Your system sounds perfectly logical and fair and efficient....which is why the democrats would never support such a straightforward, simple operation. If all US states operated as you do, we probably wouldn’t have our current democrat-run senate.

In the US, it’s not just a matter of honest poll workers catching fraudulent voters. Unfortunately, in many of the precincts, the poll watchers and the workers are themselves orchestrating or abetting the fraud.

It's obvious BS-- look who made it up and attributed the claim to unknown third parties. The anonymous claims come from college professors who refer to their students as "their children" - which is just weird. [He also describes ACORN as nonpartisan, which means he's drunk on purple koolaid.] :

Lee Drake, president of the College Democrats "ACORN is a group that is nonpartisan and contracts out to groups that want to do mass voter registrations," he said....Drake said he has heard complaints from many people "There are some professors that are coming to me and saying that their children are being registered Republican without their child's consent."

Rest assured though the claim will probably reappear in other articles soon to come but without attribution.

I have started showing my drivers license every time I vote. It is my personal protest. I’ve explained to my poll workers why I’m doing it and they seem very supportive. I’m sure they understand what’s at stake as well, or better, than any of us do.

The problem is democrats. They can't win elections by actual votes so they try to muck up the system so people have doubts, like what happened in 2000.
They oppose any sort of identification at the polling place so people can vote multiple times in multiple locations under different names. They oppose purging the database of dead people so they can send homeless people to vote in their place. They oppose paper ballots because they needs to be hand counted and most of their “volunteers” can't count. The oppose electronic voting because it's impossible to hack each machine and change the votes in their favor.

The current situation has an Obama paid group filing thousands and thousands of fake and fictitious registrations which will confuse and muck-up the voter rolls in cities that just don't have enough people to see if Mickey Mouse actually lives at 123 Main Street along with three hundred other characters. They will send homeless people to cast provisional ballots (even after they registered in multiple districts) and submit absentee ballots, and do whatever it takes to make the system look broken. They have people bussed from district to district and buss them back when the volunteer poll clerks switch off to other volunteers so they can assume the identity of a dead person and vote again.
It would be nice if we had parties that didn't have to cheat but allowed the actual, eligible voters to decide. But they refuse and the more they make the system look broken, cry racism, sexism, homophobia, the more the undermine confidence in the system. Similar to what they're doing to the mortgage system. They call anyone that wants to fix it racist because they want people that can actually afford homes to actually own them. This is all happening under the "blind" eyes of the media who are rooting for Obama. People in this country are ready to grab pitchforks and storm DC because the simple act of requiring people show identification would end all of this but they don't want it to end because if it did, they would be out of power in four years.
