Re: Live voting vs mail in voting
Fraud, a charge that gets thrown around a lot and is something perpetrated by all people, all parties and all elections.
From the simple man altering ballots to a complex scheme involving a district. It happens, so that isn't a reason to restrict disenfranchised voters.
Here is a postal carrier caught changing ballots.
What a West Virginia man says was a small, joking attempt at voter fraud shows just how closely officials are watching

A case of alleged election fraud that a West Virginia mail carrier says was a joking attempt to alter ballot requests shows just how closely local and federal officials are watching.
According to a complaint written by an investigator working for the West Virginia Secretary of State's Office, Thomas Cooper, 47, of Dry Fork, West Virginia, and a mail carrier for Pendleton County, was joking when he altered ballot requests sent by some people on his delivery route, changing their party affiliations from Democrat to Republican.

That investigation found five ballot requests that had been altered from "Democrat" to "Republican." On three other requests, the party wasn't changed but the word "Republican" was circled in addition to the checked "Republican" box.
Cooper, who was responsible for mail delivery in the three towns from which the tampered ballot requests were mailed, admitted to altering some of the requests, saying it was a joke, according to the affidavit.
