"I own 200 shares of xxx in a margin account
Broker loans out 200 shares for short sale bought by yyy"

Now can the broker for yyy loan out the same shares to zzz for a short sale? I'm thinking they must be registered or something to prevent that, otherwise it seems the shares could travel to all the brokerages turn into a thousand shorted shares (and 1200 votes?).
