Voter fraud has gotten worse over the years, thanks in no small part to the Democrats. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 aka "the Motor Voter Act" makes voter registration virtually automatic (simultaneous with motor vehicle driver's license application or renewal) while removing the safeguards against fraud. Combine that with the move by Democrats in California to award driver's licenses to illegal aliens and you essentially roll out the welcome mat for terrorists.

Voter fraud is easy to commit, and easy to stop. The 4 most common cheating methods:

1. Non-citizens or illegal aliens voting when legally ineligible to do so;

2. Eligible voters voting multiple times across multiple districts or impersonating others;

3. Registering nonexistent voters... or the dead;

4. Tampering with ballot boxes, destroying votes or inserting false votes after polling but before counting.

Simple reform could prevent most of this fraud. Requiring every voter to prove identity and citizenship. But Democrats will call you racist or accuse you of voter suppression or intimidation for raising such ideas of reform. The reason Democrats fight real reform and prefer "reform" that makes fraud easier is because voter fraud disproportionately favors Democrats and their allies on the political Left.
