Someone posted on the thread last week an op-ed piece by a former Texas judge, who had observed voter fraud numerous times in Texas. One of the easiest ways to commit voter fraud using punch card ballots is to make an extra punch in the ballot - if it's a vote for Bush, just punch another hole out, and voila, it's an overvote and it's nullified. He described an incident in Houston where a couple of precinct workers drove around Houston on the Interstate for over an hour while one of them made extra punches in ballots for the "wrong" guy! This has to be a wake-up call for the whole country.
