<<<When it comes to charges of "voter fraud" and "vote suppression," each election is worse than the last.>>>

I doubt very much that people who register as Mickey Mouse actually show up and try to vote. I also do not think there are that many people who risk going to jail and try to vote more than once. Of course it happens.

I do think that "vote suppression" and "vote count fraud" threat "the fabric of democracy".

Regardless, the system should be fixed.

thames sider;

Make it automatic and have the government run it properly

You mean "socialized" voting? I'm kidding of course, but maybe conservatives who seem to now be afraid of their own shadow lately will get my point?
