Reply #95: Canvass can expose fraud. [View All]

Yes, I think you can expose a fraudulent precinct by canvassing. You pick a precinct, get about 100 volunteers, and start interviewing. Without going into numbers here, it seems like you get a pretty sharp picture of a precinct of, say, 900 voters from 100 volunteers. Some people may lie when interviewed, but a little people skills gives you a good idea who is lying. Most of these will cross themselves up on second questioning. The key point is LOTS of volunteers! Also, it is clearly important that you picked a precinct that actually IS crooked!

Basically, the idea is a 'late' exit poll with lots of volunteers to make it economically feasible and super accurate.

I really think this could give a smoking gun, if applied to the right place.
