Lou and all,
Paranoid conservatives (me!) consider voter registration one of the security holes in our current voter registration system.
Because precinct voting seems to be a thing of the past, we have lost a valuable check on who is actually voting.
A clever programmer could, for instance, create thousands of fictitious voter registration entries in the County Clerk's or SoS's data bases.
Now with early mail-in ballots, those fictitious "voters" could be mailed to and everything would look kosher.
Has it happened? How would I know?
Could it happen? You tell me.

I'm guessing that given the huge change in policy in Colorado to bring the state into compliance with Section 7 of the National Voter Registration Act, there might have been resulting duplications of registrations which needed to be weeded out, but which were not necessarily purposeful. ... I remember when there was a large cleanup of registration lists a few years back, and recall Joe Pezzillo, I think it was, commenting that Donetta Davidson was registered twice. Very amusing. Did she vote twice because of this? I'm guessing not --- though I wouldn't bet my house on it. ... I too, was once apparently registered in duplicate somehow and was indeed sent two ballots. Active at the time in fighting against unverifiable digital voting machines, I certainly was not involved in any plot to defraud the voting system, and I duly notified the County Clerk of the error and only voted once. I doubt if there was any deliberate officious fraud involved, just a rather harried and overworked elections staff (and maybe some incompetently written proprietary corporate software managing the registration listings?).
