Poll workers totally won't realize the same person voted ten times.

And it's totally feasible to register in 10 different places and drive to them all and wait in line 10 times in a single day.

And definitely not something that will attract government attention when you're repeatedly registering, no sir.

For that matter, when I was a poll worker, we had a computerized system, even though we did paper ballots, which noted when someone had already received a ballot regardless of where in the state they received it.

And to swing most elections they'd have to have dozens or scores of people doing it in a bunch of geographically adjacent districts.

I mean, it's still stupid as hell to do.

But as to your second point, it absolutely astounds me how many people seem to be completely unaware that early voting is very much a thing for like weeks before election day. Why would they need to do it in a single day?

I bet if you could say you voted early which opts you out of all election coverage I bet people would do it more.
