Neither party is as pure as the driven snow when it comes to election fraud - which is as old as elections themselves - whether it be thru "legal" means such as redrawing districts to create "safe" seats for one party or the other - or outright cheating such as "misplacing" absentee ballots or delaying their initial mailing such that they won't return in time to be valid.

In Texas, you had Tom Delay try to strongarm events to redraw districts to create a permanent R majority in the state legislature.

In NC, the D's have long had the districts so gerrymandered that nearly half the state house districts were a one-horse race, with only a D on the ballot, for several decades. This past election was the first time in OVER A CENTURY that anything close to an R majority was elected to the state house - mainly out of disgust, not so much with BO, but what could arguably be the most incompetent Governor elected by any state in modern times - that had her own party literally beg her not to run for reelection.

I don't know about proving voter fraud - but do I believe that people in BOTH parties have at least attempted voter fraud now or in the past? Damn right.
