CONSPIRACY THEORY:
The most common fraud from the days when punch cards were used here was to send someone in early in the morning to vote. They would jam a toothpick into the chad-hole for the opposition candidate and break it off flush with the votamitic surface (and most likely invalidate their ballot). At the end of the day they would send someone with an ice pick to complete jamming the toothpic through the hole and clear it out. All votes in the mean time were merely dimpled.
