Voter fraud does exist

Voter fraud is worth thinking about.

And precautions to protect elections from voter fraud — like voter ID — are worth implementing.

This week it was discovered that Wendy Rosen, a Democrat running in Maryland’s 1st Congressional district, was registered to vote in both Maryland and Florida since 2006 and she did in fact vote in both places.

So, it does happen. More importantly there are very few effective safeguards from preventing it from happening on a widespread basis.

You could, theoretically, bus hundreds of people into a district and throw an election.

Hell, Ms. Rosen was registered to vote in both places since 2006. What’s to prevent hundreds or even thousands of people from being registered in the few swing states that hold the key to the next president?

Voting is sacred to a democracy. It’s popular now to say that it should be easy as pie. Ms. Rosen provides evidence to rethink that.
