Why is it that Americans (of both political stripes) seem utterly incapable of accepting the verdict of the ballot box? If it's not the Democrats complaining of hanging chads and corporate conspiracies to reprogram voting machines, it's the right raising phantom arguments of "massive" voter fraud.
If you ever lived in Chicago, Illinois you would know that massive voter fraud actually exists. Why do you think they have the motto: "Vote early, vote often."
Places like Gary, Indiana; Chicago, Illinois; etc. are well known for funny stuff at the ballot box.

Yeah like trying to get the military absentee ballots tossed out, and trying to use incredibly creative recounting methods.

But unless you can show me the undead voting in numbers greater than the margin of victory within a given state, I'm going to continue to dismiss your allegations as frivolous and vexatious.
Chicago, Illinois; heck Illinois in general is very well known for voter fraud. It is also arguably how JFK beat Nixon, fraudulent votes in Illinois and Texas.
Look at the Contraversy around the 1960 election.
