Voter Fraud?
Would the voter fraud technique used in this movie (saw it yesterday on TCM) work today? Basically a crooked politician hires a "fixer" who puts the fix in on his election in the voting process. The fixer opens a soup kitchen for the homeless in hopes of luring them into the voter fraud scheme. while they're grabbing soup, the fixer asks them if they'd like to make a couple of bucks. Basically a homeless guy (later the hero) is told to go to voting places and find their crooked dude there who has the list of registered voters' names, including the fake names they added to the list. The homeless guy was supposed to say something like "Hi, Bill" to the guy with the list and that was the cue for the list guy to give the homeless guy one of the fake names for him to use to vote with. Admittedly that would take a lot of money to buy bad guys with, but a George Soros or Donald Trump wouldn't have a problem
