A Proposed Solution to Voter Fraud

And it can be implemented quickly.

Start with the common sense answer: require ID, like a driver's license, that has a valid current address that matches the registration. Some states, like Indiana, already do this (as Sara pointed out).

But the objection to an ID/address requirement is the plight of the homeless, who don't have an address. We need a way to let them vote that doesn't allow nefarious individuals to vote multiple times by registering fictitious people, allowing the individual to go from polling station to polling station voting under fake names. We need to make sure the homeless can vote, but only vote once.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Iraqi voter.



Easy. Cheap. And we can do it in time for this election.
