I don’t understand why unused ballots aren’t shredded at the poll site at closing time??

This is the kind of situation where all the ACORN phoney registrations come into play.

Yes, "Mickey Mouse" is not voting BUT these obviously false registrations act as a red herring to obscure bad registrations that are far more difficult to discern, PARTICULARLY WHEN THE LOCAL PARTY HAS NO INCENTIVE FOR DISCOVERY. Family members at actual addresses can be "invented" this way. They can then "vote" absentee, or the votes can be cast in the following way:

In single-party precincts (no GOP judges around) it is VERY easy to vote unused registrations at the end of the day.

Many of ACORN's registrations are of real people who have no intention whatsoever to vote, but register out of social pressure or because they were bribed to do so. These go into the after-election pool of registrants that THE JUDGES can then vote. This is an OLD Chicago trick, trust me, I've been there.
