Re: A political random thought
Is it required to pass a driving examination before you can vote in the USA?
But all joking set aside, I do feel it is important to do everything possible all the time to limit the possibility of voter fraud, but just as important it is to guarantee everybody's possibility to put his vote in the democratic process.
I've heard/read that people weren't allowed to vote in Florida in earlier elections, due to dubious circumstances, this should not happen, and neither should it happen that votes turn up of non-existent people and all parties should work together to prevend such events from happening, but if one of the parties sees advantages in such things, then it is understandable that the other thinks, what's good for the goose, is good for the gander. Still if western civilized countries cannot guarantee a fair democratic process, it is the beginning of the end ...
