Tip of a very large iceberg.

I think you can add to this mess the fact that ALL college students attending school out of their home town are ripe for double voting. Once at school- absentee at their home address.

Considering the high number of college students in the USA, I think this is just as serious a problem, and it has to stop. I only get one vote, and I am legal. This should be corrected before 2006 elections.

Don't know about anyplace else, but IIRC, to vote here, college students have to declare residency, and pay taxes, etc. Then they still aren't eligible for residential tuition rates if they became residents to attend school. For most of them, it isn't worth it.
