SFC George Smith - Okay, I'm an idiot. I know who he is, I just had a lapse in brain function. Anyway, answer is still wrong. :)

I remember when all you heard about moon beam was that he was dating Linda Ronstadt. And he would not move into the Govenors mansion.

Having been a California Resident for the past 24 years and voted in every election, I can say that there is plenty of ways for people to commit voter fraud. Registering to vote is done on the honor system. With the huge increase of mail in ballots, there is nothing to prevent someone from either making up voter reg forms or having unwitting people like the elderly register and filling out and mailing out ballots for them. If you have the name and address of registered voters and know they have moved or don't intend to vote there is nothing stopping you from going to polling places and casting votes. There are two lists that are checked off. Your Name and your address. There is no photo or description of you, You just sign and receive a ballot. If you have a group of 20 people with a list of names, addresses and polling places in a decent size city they can probably vote 20 times each. That's 400 votes each.

SSG Jessica Bautista - Yes, California is actually very efficient in getting information out to people to vote, however, a lot of the registration is taking people's word on their place of residence and citizenship.
One thing that is often overlooked in Voter Registration drives (Country-wide) a party can register numerous people,( Fake or dead), but unless someone shows up, Identifies themselves and fills out a ballot its just a number on the rolls. Unfortunately if someone ties in a fraudulent voter with a mail in ballot,all bets are off. I'm a firm believer in passing Voter ID laws.

SSG Jessica Bautista - To be honest I don't know if they ever try to follow up on the form. It's been years since I have registered, but I just remember filling out the form that asked if I was a US citizen. Since I already had a DL from another state I didn't have to provide any other documentation. My Daughter registered to vote when she got her license. Again it was her filling out a form, however to get her license itself it required a birth certificate, but it made no difference where she was born, It was to verify her age and identity.

Prevent voter fraud? California encourages voter fraud. This is why I believe that Hillary's popular lead in the vote would evaporate If all illegal votes were identified and culled out
