You do raise a valid point. Certainly in Nebraska where no ID is required it wouldn't be hard to vote multiple times in the normal election. I suspect that the same is true in some other states. Having never voted absentee, I am not really familiar with the process. As for the 12th Amendment argument that Cheney and Bush are both from Texas, other than being aware that the issue exists I can't really comment on it. I do know that it is possible to change domicile, and that for some purposes all you have to do is say "this is my home", while for other purposes you may have to live in a place for awhile before it becomes home. Thus for purposes of getting in-state tuition rates you may have to live in a state a year before you qualify, while for purposes of registering your car or registering to vote a much shorter period combined with intent to live there may be enough. I know that Hillary Clinton established residency in New York for purposes of running for the Senate, so I know that it can be done, I just don't know what the requirements have been determined to be under the constitution. In any case I never though Cheney added anything to the ticket other than a warm body who wouldn't alienate anyone, so I don't know why Bush chose him. I thought he might make some bolder choice like Elizabeth Dole or Colin Powell. If he had, who knows, maybe I would have voted for him. LOL Carl
