Bond eventually found a dead person on the voter registration rolls: a former city alderman. But there was no evidence that the deceased or anyone with his name voted in the 2000 election. By the time every one of Bond’s three hundred plus claims was investigated, it was clear that out of 2.3 million voters in Missouri, the four people who committed some type of malfeasance at the polls hardly constituted rampant voter fraud. And it was also obvious that “none of these problems could have been resolved by requiring photo ID at the polls.”
