It's this kind of stuff (which was reported all over the US in 2000) that makes me question whether Algore really won the popular vote.

When it comes to vote fraud DemocRatic shame knows no boundaries.

Here in 2000 the Rats passed out cigarettes to bums and encouraged college students to vote more than once, which probably caused the state to go Gore.

I'd forgotten about the cigarettes-for-votes ploy! Our daugther is writing a paper for her English composition class on keeping the Electoral College. I talked with her about reasons why the EC should be kept, and one reason is that by apportioning votes by state, it tends to isolate or mitigate the impact of voter fraud, i.e., stuffed ballot boxes in Illinois only impacts the vote in Illinois -- voter fraud in that state doesn't impact the popular vote nationwide. I found an article from the Wall Street Journal someone posted in FR back in Feb. 2001, about voter fraud in 2000, to provide examples our daughter could use in her paper.
