And no, there's no way to prevent you voting for your neighbor other than being recognized by the poll workers again. That's why I think ID or a voter's registration card should be required.

This is the type of system that makes voter fraud relativly easy in the US. If you can get a fake ID, you can register to vote at different polling places under the different names and be nearly perfectly safe in breaking the law. Jay

The ticket is compared against a computer-generated list of registered voters. If it matches, the name is marked off on the list and you are given a ballot. The poll ticket is signed by two people and secured. Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."
