Same thing is done for their mail in ballots. The individual voters would have to validate their votes with a stamp of red ink from their own unique seal.



A similar strategy could be implemented to reduce election fraud here.



Maybe too late for this election, but something to think about for the future.
True, but honestly do you ever see that happening since some folks already say having an ID is a burden on the poor and minorities? If people won't accept an ID that must also be used to open a bank account, cash a check, buy alcohol, drive a car, rent a place or board a plane...
I don't think they'll go for some coat of arms/family crest that has such a narrow use.

But I do agree we need something to reduce voter fraud. Maybe something like Mexico uses?
