E!!

 As John Fund of the WSJ is so fond of saying, it is very likely that Election Day is going to turn into election month.  Fifteen thousand lawyers have laptops:  will travel.  

 How long it will take all these attorneys to wade through the voter registration fraud problem in 10+ states is anybody’s guess.  (There’s a punchline in there somewhere.)

 As I wrote last week, ACORN’s Nevada offices were raided by federal law enforcement as part of a voter registration fraud investigation. Among other violations, ACORN-Las Vegas allegedly employed felons in their voter-registration projects not to mention filing gobs of bogus registrations.

 Here and in other parts of the country, multiple voter-registration applications have been filed for single voters; voter registrations have been filed for dead, underage, imprisoned, or ineligible voters; identities have been manufactured and/or signatures have been forged and/or addresses have been faked on registration cards; and in some voting districts, registration now stands at more than 100% of the voting-age population.

 And what else else would we expect from ACORN and similar groups, really, since they pressure their workers with aggressive registration quotas?  Such tactics are bound to breed corruption. 

 We are already in a mess for this election, but for next time:  why not simply pass a federal law that all voters must (1) register at least 90 days prior to the election and (2) show a valid photo ID at their voting location? 

 This would give election officials the time they need to weed through any fake registrations, and give election monitors the opportunity and means to verify who is standing in front of them.
