No atter where you come down on voter ID laws, oppressive tool of right-wingers used to suppress minority and low-income voters or simple step to protect the sanctity of elections, one thing is quite clear, committing voter fraud in the absence of voter ID laws is pretty easy.  To prove the point, Project Veritas this morning released several undercover videos where journalists were able to walk into polling stations across the State of Michigan and vote the ballots of, what should have been, easily recognizable public figures. 

In the first video below, the Project Veritas journalist claims she is Jocelyn Benson, the Dean of Wayne State University Law School, but that she lost her ID.  The “Poll Supervisor” is quick to reassure Mrs. Benson that as long as she signs the affidavit on the back of the ballot she is free to vote.  When the journalist pushes back and insists that she feels an obligation to prove her identity the Poll Supervisor reassures her that “nobody can vote twice” because if the real Jocelyn Benson subsequently comes in she won’t be able to vote “because you already voted.”  Perfect logic if we understand it correctly.  So just to clarify, each registered voter only gets one ballot…great, this seems reasonable…but it doesn’t necessarily matter so much who casts that ballot…wait, what?
