#1 Did they check Pennsylvania and New York as well? It is entirely possible to hit all states in one day. And thrownin a few absentee ballots in as well and you have a serial voter.

#2 Hopefully this will be a wake up call to progressives who often choose to look the other way.

For the communists progressives, it's a feature, not a bug. They're concern is only about power. They know that if they attempt an out right coup, they'd lose the subsequent civil war. So instead, they violate the law while making sure the proles worship the law and are unwilling to play the same game they play. That way they gain the acquiescence to their assumption of power.

#3 Here is how things happen in France.

1) Before December of the previous year you have to get a voting card. In order to get it you have to submit proof of citizenship and proof of where you live. No proof of citizenship => no voting card => no vote. And of course submissions are handed nationally so you can never hold more than one voting card at a time.

2) Once you get your voting card you are assigned a voting place close to your home. You cannot vote elsewhere and, of course, you cannot vote more than one time at the same election.

3) No silly things like early vote where people are encouraged to vote the earliest possible so they can't change their mins later. Campaign and electoral debates are supposed to inform you so early voters should be considered uninformed voters. Last day before election is "reflexion day" where citizen are supposed to weigh the pros and cons. No propaganda is allowed this day.

4) No "get out the vote" initiatives. First because such initiatives are never neutral. Second Because if you are so uninterested ijn politics you need an activist to lead you toi vote and for which party then you should stay at home watching sports instead of casting an uninformed vote.

5) Vote is for a single day and despite no early vote and higher turnouts than in America most of the time there is no line at all. If you are _very_ silly or unfortunate you could get a five to ten minutes line. So why, why, why to have early vote? Why in America you stick to setting few voting places?

5) On election day you go to your assigned voting place you take one ballot paper of each party and an envelope. You go to an isolation booth and put one ballot into the envelope, then go to the board where you have to show your electoral card along with an ID card with photo of a model issued only to citizens along with . The people at the board use your electoral card to check that you are registered for this particular voting place. They have a printout of registered people and ask you to sign your entry in the printout before you are allowed to cast the vote. Envelope goes into a _transparent ballot_ box. No electronic box. I am a programmer and electronic vote just gives me the creeps.

4) When vote ends these good old ballot papers are counted by the good old method and verifiable method of manual counting with representatives of each party watching one another to keep things honest (I think there is a judge too). It is over in about four hours so why, why, why do you have something as vulnerable to cheating than electronic vote?

5) Once the votes are counted, everything: register, counting results countersigned by every party along with every single ballot paper go into a safe place and this is sealed. In futher days the safe place is opened and under strict police and party supervision its contents are brought unto dependencied of Ministry of Interior and counted again under judge and multiparty supervision. Trying to do do like Al Franken who was elected thanks to the contents of sevaerl ballot boxes "forgotten" for days in car trunk will land you not at Capitol Hill but in La Santé (Leavenworth in US terms).

Last presidential election I found in the official site>/b> of Massachusets than in several districts of Massachusets turnover was weel above 100% and atr times close to 200%. !!!!! ????? Obama got over 90% in those district. Do that in a few voting places and you can change outcome in a swing state. Do that in a few swing states and you can change the outcome of a presidential election.

Of course the higher number of ballot places, manual counting and strict supervision of the French system has a cost but in Spanish it is told the "What is cheap ends up being expensive". As expensive than an Obama. I am not talking merely of taxes or effects on economy but of the cost in blmood and treasure America will have to pay to offset the effects of its foreign and defence policy.

#4 You don't get it, JFM. These people are so crooked that common sense measures like the ones you describe are unthinkable to them.

#5 Eu You are thinking in what those people could do for you instead of what you could do for your country. Yo, not you Americans, should mount a "Clean Vote" initiative and get things straight once and for all.

#6 Yeah, right. With the governor of California inviting illegal aliens to come to our state and vote in our elections after collecting their welfare checks, free education and free health care at MY expense and the state legislature applauding him for it, just how much good do you think that would do? Fact is, it's too late for California. We are now a part of Mexico.

#7 Correct, this is 'not France.' This is Newbamaland and we do things here a nuway; his way, and my way. My people have been monitoring these events and this is probably little more than afronomoly.
