There have been rumbles about privatizing/selling/leasing it from time to time. It was a big topic of discussion during Rendell's administration in the 2000s.

That was fraud all right, but that was an inside job by someone on the election board to stuff ballot boxes. That was not Gramma forgetting to write a date on her mail-in ballot.

You can vote provisionally in person without your mail-in ballot. This is useful, for example, when the tracking fails to show your mailed ballot being counted. Explain your situation at the polling place, and they'll set you up with a ballot. That way you won't be flagged for attempting to vote twice fraudulently. The election board will sort it out.

To expect that there would be absolutely zero fraud in an election where thousands or millions of votes are cast would be naive. To demand that we add entire layer of rules and procedures that everyone must follow to a tee in order to thwart that one guy in Philadelphia is asinine.
