Reply #11: Could purged voters be used as bogus Absentee Ballots. [View All]

[freedom for all]

Would it be possible for someone like the SOS of a state to take a purged voter role for a State and turn them into absentee voters. If you had all their names and info could you just fill out their Absentee Ballots for them and forge their signatures. Then go to the local mail boxes all over the state and mail them in their county. How are absentee ballots cross checked for duplication in a state and outside a state to make sure people are not voting twice? In states with a paper trail this would be a good way to manufacture votes statewide. Of course depending on what kind of purged role you were using there might be patterns that arise. Like maybe poor urban democrats oddly voting republican. I think truehawk has a good idea to look at the ways absentee ballots can be manipulated or create phantom votes.

Since voter roles are off due to people moving and such would it be possible or realistic to do some studies based on voter age population like truehawk was talking about..Maybe there might be some weird pattern that surfaces. For example, lets take a county or a state. We could look at the newest population numbers(18 & older) for that county or state. Then look at the total number of possible voters vs total votes. Not sure what most studies say about the percent of people that vote. Lets say you have 250,000 votes for 1 county out of 350,000 possible/total voters. I think most studies show that only 45-50 of possible voters even vote. So out of a possible 350,000 voters you should have around 160,000 -175,000 votes or so...Now that 250,000 votes for that county looks funny.. Not sure if this type of study is possible or helpful but it could point out possible phantom votes or fraud..
