There seems to be, from all sides, major complaints about voter fraud this election season. Sadly, from all the problems with past elections, it’s now an expected part of the electoral process, and it seems to be worsening each election cycle. Unscrupulous people sometimes will believe they should try to get their favored candidate in by any means necessary. It’s not something which happens with one party, it happens across the board. While there could be questions as to how much the political parties are involved in such behavior, obviously they cannot be held accountable for whatever happens in their name. Nonetheless, the following news report is rather disturbing:
With less than a week to go before voters are expected to head to the polls in record numbers, a bogus flyer directing Republicans to vote Nov. 4 and Democrats to vote Nov. 5 has surfaced in Virginia. The state’s Board of Elections said the fake has been distributed in Hampton, Newport News, Virginia Beach and Norfolk, sounding louder alarms of voter fraud and intimidation across the nation. (ABC News)
I hope voters will be weary enough that they will not be convinced by such fakery, no matter which side such fraud comes from.
