RIGHT: On line registration-on line voting
BIG DIFFERENCE
SAME SECURITY LIABILITY
Nope -- anybody can submit a bogus voter registration form either online or on paper. However, local elections officials have the ability to examine the application and determine if they're valid or not. There's no reason to believe a bogus form submitted online is any more bogus (or hard to detect) than a bogus form submitted in paper. Voting is totally different -- because it's a one time event and there's no easy way to investigate voters after the fact. Because it's a one time event and because numbers -- not data -- are what matter voting is much more problematic online than registration.
