Swickard column: The dog days of elections

Michael & Conrad
© 2012 Michael Swickard, Ph.D.   My dog Conrad was amused by the story this week of an Albuquerque man who registered his dog to vote and promptly got a voter card for the dog in the mail. He wanted to show that a New Mexico voter card was easy to get even for those who are not legitimate. He has been proven right and has gotten the attention not only of the State of New Mexico law enforcement authorities but also the “dog set to vote” story went national.  These dog days of the election process are quite interesting because it would seem that getting a false voter card was easy. This is despite the fact that I have been told many times the registration process insures only legitimate voters are on the rolls. Read column
