Ok, good. You'd have to pick a recently deceased registered voter. How quickly do government records get updated? Voters registration information probably doesn't get deleted until the registration expires. My card says it's good through 12/31/01. If I died tomorrow, I'd bet my name would stay on the rolls till that date.

I don't think signature verification would be a big barrier. The address might - or might not.

I think there should be some strong controls on absentee ballots and on county records. Controls were obviously too loose in Seminole & Martin counties - though I don't know if any damage was done or whether any ballots should be thrown out. I find this whole situation interesting though I don't really care much who wins.
