I'm not a fan of early voting, I think everyone should vote on election day and vote only once. I believe early voting enables more fraud. And I do not think there is much debate on the amount of fraud there is out there.

The easy way to solve this is a unique bar coded voter ID that is in a national database that is about the only way IMHO that early voting can't be exploited.  Geez if a store can keep up with what they sell it would seem the country can keep up with who voted.

That's exactly how we vote here in SA, Cheeze: all our ID books have bar codes that get scanned and one of our nails gets a ink mark on it. Smile

I know it's a radical idea that someone should vote only once **cough-cough** ACORN. Interesting how they only seem to be really active and under investigation in swing states.

Call me crazy ("CRAZY!"--thank you) but what's wrong with what is done in so many other countries that require everyone to vote on one day and then place, as Trevor mentioned, semi-permanent ink on the nails or fingertips of a voter? If you've got the ink mark, you can't vote again. Maybe someone would show up with an ink remover, I don't know, but it's at least a better solution than the one we have now. What I will go out on a limb and say is that our present national voting process in the United States is dysfunctional.

Whatever our political affiliations, at the end of election day we all bleed red, white and blue, and all good Americans want only the best for their country, so I think I can speak for everyone here in hoping next Tuesday is the fairest, most well-attended election we've ever had, and that it goes off without a hitch. Whoever wins, let's hope the next four years are ones of prosperity, unity, peace, and happiness for the United States and the world.

I'd like to suggest that anyone who hasn't followed the candidates and their positions exercise their constitutional right to go have a beer or two instead of voting.  Voting is more a responsibility than a right.  A large voter turnout is not a good thing if the voters turning out are ignorant on the issues.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
