Man, I hate to burst your bubble, but vote fraud in the US has been rampant at least since George Washington kicked the bucket. I mean, it's not like the former Soviet Republics or central America, but only because the vote-rigging here is more sophisticated.
Example: John F. Kennedy was elected by the Chicago Graveyard Vote. Supposedly his dad bought the election from Boss Daley (Sr.) with money he made bootlegging during prohibition, but I don't think that last part has ever been proven.
Now that the States all want to switch to electronic voting machines, us geeks will control the fix. What a concept... I hope we can use the power more responsibly than the current Republicrat machine does :^P .
