--in combatting it. Voting in more than one state could be quite common. The voter-suppressing Repukes naturally want no part of the solution, which would be elections standards set by the federal government instead of states. They would have a much harder time leveraging their racism at the national level. This would immediately bring advocates of open source software and mandatory auditing on board as well.

Remember that the only reason for having voting controlled at the state level in the first place was to enable slave states to have their own way.

Question: What safeguards are in place to prevent people from voting in more than one state? My son recently registered and voted on the mainland, where he's in school, but his name was still on the list at my polling place on Election Day. Since poll workers just check identity, what's to stop somebody from voting early/absentee on the mainland and in person in Hawaii (or vice versa)?

Answer: People "should know that, first and foremost, it is a felony to vote more than once at both federal and local levels," said city Elections Administrator Glen Takahashi.

But, at this point, there really is no way to prevent someone intent on voting in multiple states from doing so.

Asked if that means, on Election Day nationally, there really is no way to detect whether someone has voted in multiple states, he answered, "Yes."
