Election Rigging

Freakonomics has a very interesting Q&A post up with a gentleman named Allen Raymond, who has just written a book titled How to Rig an Election.

For those who don't recognize the name (I did not), Raymond was the G.O.P. political staff person who oversaw an operation to jam phone lines run by the Democratic party in the 2002 New Hampshire Senate primaries, so he's familiar with his topic. He spent three months in prison for his role in the affair.

I encourage people to take a look at the post. I may have to buy the book.
