So...back on the whole voter ID subject...I was looking over what was required to vote here in TX. The list included a utility bill with your name. It got me thinking...if I wanted to do any voter fraud, I could scope out the mailboxes of folks with lawn signs for "the other guy", pull a qualifying bill and then go early vote on Day 1, casting their ballot for "my guy". Later, they'd show up to vote and be told they already voted (or maybe they don't vote at all but if they have a lawn sign, they prolly do).

What's horrific in the 41 is the grammar and spelling.

My wife and I never talk politics, so I was surprised to find out she voted the same way I did. So when you see two NY Gary Johnson votes..

So, my mother, father, sister, step mother, and girlfriend all voted for Romney. At least half of us wanted to vote for GJ, but we really want ******* out, so we all voted for Mittens. That's my report from Ohio.
