so that the democratic voters would THINK they were registered to vote, but were not.

"In some cases they were moving voters," she said, "sometimes to commercial buildings or addresses. In some places they were changing political parties." ~ Palm Beach County Supervisor of Election Susan Bucher

You find records for a dead person named John Doe and steal his identity. You register to vote as John Doe. Come the election you vote as yourself, and you also vote (in a different location) as John Doe.

Odds are that John Doe will not dispute your claim to be John Doe. However, it's possible that someone else may try to vote as John Doe. That's one reason they check you off the roll when you vote.

Friday 12 October -- and if you miss the 12 October deadline, you can register at a one-stop voting location in your county from 18 October until 3 November (but only if you one-stop vote at the same time)
