Since enactment of the motor voter law. we have seen an increase in voting fraud across this country. and much of the increase is due to the provisions of the bill that prohibits States from removing registrants who fail to vote or who are unresponsive to voter registration correspondence. Because of the lack of fraud provisions in the motor voter law. we have the modern worlds sloppiest electoral system. according to political scientist Walter Dean Burnham. The yearlong investigation of the DornanSanchez House race established 624 documented cases of noncitizens voting. noncitizens voting. in American elections. another 124 voters cast improper absentee ballots. an additional 196 votes may well have been legal but only circumstantial evidence existed. As of 1994. in Houston County. Alabama. a man who has been dead for 7 years has been recorded as voting regularly by absentee ballot.
