Brad Friedman calls it "voter fraud," while I prefer the term "registration fraud." Either way, it's like the Loch Ness monster: So rarely spotted that we can confine the thing to the category of myth. Nevertheless, the Republican propaganda machine has convinced the sheeple that registration fraud is a massive danger.
That's why voting is now akin to applying for a loan in many states. The identification requirements weed out poor people (who tend to vote Democratic), since they move often and may use expired driver's licenses.
Tova Andrea Wang has a great new essay on the topic. I would take her argument a step further. We should demand privacy for voter information. Right now, data-mining companies can sell the information to creditors and others you may prefer not to know your street address.

They ship 'em up from Mass, and they have NO legal domicile here, and bingo, that is how the boy governor got in the first time.
WE have the goods on all of them, thousands of them, all over the state.
They also mail jam. Search on mail jamming democrats in google and you'll see how they do it.
