The funny thing, is the National Enquirer readers are more likely the
Democrat voters, that will accept cigarettes to vote for a specified
candidate.



Nah. The stereotypical democrat is against smoking. :-)

But, it's easy to see how easy it is to fool some folks. If you stood outside
the polling place and said, "Here's a coupon for five gallons for free diesel,
pull the handle for Bush.........." I'd most likely take your five free gallons
and, in the privacy of the booth, vote as I darn well pleased.
Dishonest, sure.....but some acts are so
contemptuous they cannot command an honest response.

How do you vote in CA? The urban legends about the Democratic precinct
committee people going down to skid road and loading up minivans full of
transients to go and vote as instructed could *not* happen in my state. Not
unless the tansients were registered to vote in the precinct they were taken
to.

One could speculate that if the pollworkers are crooked they could allow the
transients to vote without checking registration, but if the pollworkers are
that crooked who needs transients? Just grab a stack of ballots and get to
work.

One of the safeguards we use to prevent just that sort of thing from happening
is that we enlist representatives from *both* parties to work at the polling
places. The R's can't cheat to beat hell, or vice versa, without the other side
catching on.

It would take a flawed process, as we recently observed elsewere, to completely
screw up the election.
