What's to keep me from coming back in 20 minutes, and claiming to be my neighbor?
Or even, some person whose name I saw in the big book that is not yet crossed off?
There are far too many ways to perpetrate election fraud.
Let's get this one crossed off! |
The people at my polling place know me pretty well. I was the first one to line up and vote in the presidential primary two months ago.
I used to vote by absentee ballot, but I wonder how long it takes for my ballot to be counted, so I dumped that habit and vote when it really matters.
