sometimes I wake up in the morning, start reading the news...

Vote multiple times in multiple states, write campaign checks, answer polls, endorse candidates. Lather, rinse, repeat for the next election cycle.

Maybe he’s not really dead.

But really, where there is one instance of fraud, there are many.
