The way to stamp it out is to create a voter-card and then a live-online database (or even a “static one” which records this information for accumulation later on) which records that someone has voted already (with that card). That card can only be issued to voters who are qualified for the state that they are in and the address that they have.
That’s the way to eliminate this kind of fraud.
How about the purple dye on the finger trick
I do all my banking on-line. I do all my bill-paying on-line. I deal with the DMV on-line, I deal with SSI, Medicare, IRS on-line. I make credit card purchases securely on-line. I deal with my insurance on-line. All of this securely on-line....
I agree with you! Can anyone tell me in this day and age that we cannot upgrade our voter registration securely so that every voter that registers are as vetted, legal and secure as a Social Security card, driver's license or major credit card? <[I still do advocate the hard-copy card ballot with circle filled in by indelible pen then run through a scanner...kept for possible later re-count.]> However, every banking or credit card transactions on-line or physically at point-of-purchase I'm given a receipt or an invoice. Why can't I have one for my vote? There has to be a better, more secure way and one that will give voters confidence and not cause the to adopt a "why bother?" attitude about being involved if it's all a scam or rigged.
I, for one, won't waste my time if it's not repaired and upgraded. We've had this crap in the 2000 and 2004 and 2006 elections. Are we that stupid, lazy or is this the way we just do away with elections?
