More Voter Fraud

Chris Hayes commits some.

In a reasonable country, what we would have is an affirmative right of adult citizens to vote. Then “fraud” would consist of voting multiple times, or voting someplace where you’re clearly ineligible to vote. Currently, there is no affirmative right to vote. Consequently, any violation of any number of picayune technical elements of process counts, in some sense, as fraud. Filling out a registration form wrong by accident is, arguably, fraud. Or if you’re a college student and your freshman dorm is in a different precinct from your sophomore dorm, but you forgot to get your registration information updated before the deadline so you go vote in the precinct where you’re registered that’s arguably fraud. So all this stuff happens, and there’s a lot of fraud. Or, rather, “fraud.” It’s clerical errors, really, but conservatives are trying to make it out to be some vast election-stealing conspiracy.
