If the election is close at all, you can bet this kind of thing could cause riots. The whole reason for having a deadline for registration is so they can verify the voter before the election. I'd like to knock some sense into these people.

It was worse than that. After Florida was reviewing it's votes & registrations for the 2000 year. They found that there were part-time residents in Florida, that had also voted in their permanent resident of New York. They voted twice. In fact, 1100 individuals did that. 87% were democrats. They have all been charged with a Felony, & will lose their right to vote forever.
Now imagine knowing that. And Al Gore being the President today? This system has got to be cleaned up. There too many people out there, intent on comitting voter fraud, for one reason or another.
There has got to be better checks & balances in place, so that we can stop this from happening. And one way is definitely, not to loosen up, just for the convenience of the voter.
