Sgt Wayne Wood If I was reading this about a third world country, or some banana republic with a token democracy, I would not at all be surprised. This in the United States is beyond disconcerting. From the Russia interference to this, then the stupid politicians wonder why they are more hated than a dentist who is also a lawyer, and not as well trusted.

If they were legally authorized to vote in NH and did, it only matters if they voted somewhere else as well. Should not be hard to verify since they have their names and addresses. In the time it took to write this article a smart database admin could have already gotten an answer (if they had access to the state voter records that apply). Prosecute them if caught. Poor Kelly Ayotte ain't getting her Senate seat back though, unless they can prove enough illegal votes would have made her the winner. That would be tied up in courts for quite some time. There has to be a better way of voting that would prevent this. All these investigations and commissions won't come close to fixing it. They should consider biometrics and a nationwide standard for registration and hardware. If you scan your thumbprint and it shows up as you not being eligible to vote there, you don't vote. Fairly simple, but they'll never do it because it's an alibi for those that lose. Also a way for people to game the system if they are in a tough race. Mostly won't fly because it's a solution and solutions are never good in partisan politics. Too many people making money off the uncertainty - both physical and political capital. Kobach is running for Gov. in Kansas.

The problem with your solution is that voting laws are state NOT federal. Standardizing voting metrics & voter ID is the proper solution, but will never happen as long as folk can benefit from fraud, corruption, and confusion.
