From: "Glenn Meadows" In TN, if you haven't voted in 4 years, you're removed from the voter rolls, and you have to re-register. I don't know how to handle the homeless, but how do you deliver a voter registration card to someone without a mailing address? I think when there are large margins of victory, we all tend to gloss over the low background noise of potential fraud. It's when things get really close, that issues like dead people voting, obviously bogus names on rolls become the focus. I'm glad that this did not turn out to be a close call like 2000 was, and I'm personally glad that the victor got a majority of the total votes (over 50%). If Kerry had won Ohio, and was over the 270 electoral college number, but Bush had a 3 million edge in the popular vote, we'd have the claims of reverse like in 2000. Personally, I like the electoral college approach, as it tends to even out the edge large population states could have over less densely populated states. It is a very unique system we've got in place, and as a whole, it's served us very well. -- Glenn M. > I settle for a valid purge criteria of voting records.
