While large scale fraud - 100K votes - may be unlikely or
impossible in Chicago, one must never assume that vote fraud
is impossible in Chicago. 
While I confess to straining my memory a bit now, I think
that about 100 cases from the Washington-Epton mayoral race
are now under investigation*.
Vote fraud is a fact of life in Chicago, and no matter what machines
are used they are never tamper-proof. Furthermore, Chicago
is back to using paper ballots (they are read by machine however).
Remember what they say in Chicago-

			"Vote Early, Vote Often"
			


Politics in this state is simply amazing.
