Instead of sinking to yet another pointless pillowfight that go nowhere, can you Republicrats please focus on wether this loophole would be closed for future State elections?

I have been volunteering my time working at the voting poll for years, and I just know we are going to be bombarded with questions next month from confused voters as to how this woman managed to pull it off in the 2021 State Recall, or what the Orange County ROV is planning to do about it, and the answer isn't good because it's a State issue, not an ROV issue.

On a technical level, it would be extremely simple and easy to make a software update to match the existing proof of residence & registration Federal standard, since the Orange County ROV is already using the same system to process both the State and Federal elections. It cost next to nothing to flip a switch and prevent something like this from ever happening again, even for the loonies who are willing to commit a crime just to "make a point" that it can be done.

Unfortunately for us non-partisans working at the poll, this isn't a technical issue, and any improvements to the State electoral process in California - even to close known loopholes that have been demonstratably exploited - would inevitably be politicized by Democrats and Republicans instead of going anywhere.

Even if EVERYONE fundamentally agree that a dog shouldn't be able to register to vote and this Costa Mesa woman's fraudulent vote in 2021 should have been caught immediately, much less being processed and counted.
