Is anyone else confused as to how these homeless people are able to register to vote when they don't have any ID?

I hate to break it to you but it's happening on both sides. :o( I'm all for driving homeless to their polling place and am volunteering to do it (nearest where they actually live) but unfortunately people on both sides are committing voter fraud whether the nominees know it or not. We need to go back to paper ballots like Canada has & much more heavily watched vote counting. Electronic vote counting is too easily hacked.

"On the Monday night before the primary, thousands of Wisconsin registered Independents and voters who have re-registered in the last year received absentee ballot applications enclosed in McCain / Palin direct mail pieces. The pre-printed, re-mailable absentee ballot applications appeared to be customized to the recipient's mailing address, with the addressee's local election office already on the form. Such mailers have been a tool for political campaigns, labor unions, GOTV interest organizations, and state and county election offices for a number of years. Other states reportedly saw similar mailings hit mailboxes, possibly totaling in the millions."

That's good.. much less chance of your vote not counting. :o) So many places have gone to electronic which at first I thought would be a good idea... but with all the hackers.. paper is better. :o)

We have paper ballots with optical scanners.

Seems unlikely that it would be possible to organize enough homeless people to make it worth doing.
