The article reports two. That's not widespread voter fraud.

And there's not a single account of a dead person voting in _this_
election in the entire article. Speaking of which, you didn't post the
entire article. Here's the rest of the original article found at
http://www.wftv.com/news/17848541/detail.html:


"I think it leaves it open to sign his name, during an election,
especially an important one like this year," said Joann.

Channel Nine discovered 1,636 registered voters in Central Florida are
dead.

"This is what makes Supervisors of Elections lose sleep at night,"
said Volusia County Supervisor of Elections Ann McFall.

McFall said it used to be easy to clear out voter rolls.

"We had two people who did nothing but cut obituary notices out of the
papers," she said. "That's how we found out someone died."

But 2002's Help America Vote act, which made it easier to register to
vote, also made it more difficult to remove voters from the rolls. But
Orange County Election Supervisor Bill Cowles doesn't worry.

"I think the mechanisms are in place. There's enough checks and
balances in place," he said.

However, 90 days before the election, voter rolls can't be changed and
if the state doesn't tell elections offices a voter has died, that
voter can be on the rolls for years.

"The minute I said he was deceased, they should've made note, they
should've done whatever they had to do, the people sitting behind that
table, they should have done something," said Joann Santiago

Elections supervisors say they are pushing the state to allow them to
accept death certificates from families as reasonable evidence to
remove dead voters from the rolls.



Note the Orange County Elections Supervisor isn't worried. He's
certainly in a position to know.

Obama has five thousand lawyers standing by at the Florida polls to
immediately help people who may have their legal right to vote
challenged. The Dems are anticipating voter fraud again - perpetrated
by the Republicans again. And this time they're ready to hit back
hard. 

Election Protection has organized a legal hotline for anyone voting in
this election. If your right to vote is challenged at your polling
place, call 1-866-OUR-VOTE to receive immediate assistance from a
trained legal volunteer who will help you get the issue resolved.
