Electoral Fraud?

I've just seen this on Baroness Warsi.

How many convictions have there been in the UK in relation to electoral fraud, say in the last 10 years. 

If there is going to be an issue about electoral fraud then we have to ask if there is indeed an issue.  If there really was a problem, I'm sure Baroness Warsi would be able to provide data on convictions.  I can't see where she provides that evidence.  Hmmm.

I'll assume it's a game.  Just like the game the Republicans played and won when they prevented people they believed to be likely to vote for the Democrats in Presidential Elections and that we should be as scared of such claims about 'electoral fraud' just as much as we should be scared about meeting criminal aliens around the Natural History Museum.

Greg Palast and Robert F Kennedy Jnr explain it all in the video below.





There seems to be a big thing about postal ballots being a means of fraud here in the UK.  I feel as if I'm watching a new franchise being built, using the same methods I've seen somewhere else.  When will we have those dodgy machines brought in, installed and hailed as being better than old-fashioned pen, paper and making your mark?
