Quote:Remarkably, even with such glaring obvious holes that should lead to massive swathes of electoral fraud, the system has proved to be relatively reliable since people are mostly decent. And shuttling enough people around the fuck with things would get noticed really fucking quickly.
I think that's part of the issue; Ireland is a much smaller country and much less densely populated. It's fairly easy in the US, especially in major cities, to bus people around and such; and in smaller towns and such to salt the voter rolls as one pleases.
