The page says that early voting "facilitates voter intimidation, particularly by unions and large employers that try to increase turnout by their people."  Could someone please explain this?  As I understand it, the ballot is still secret, and voters are free to spoil their ballot without anyone knowing.  I personally think that increased ''lawful'' participation in democracy makes our government better.  [[User:GregG|GregG]] 12:04, 13 October 2012 (EDT)

An encyclopedia article needs to be more than personal opinion and should have sources.  The sentence, "The less the early voting, the more integrity there is in the process, and the more likely it is the Republican candidate will win.:" is not necessarily true and is certainly not true over a long period of time.  But there is no caveat as to what time period is address.  The only text reference is to the year 2010.  I can think of states where early voting was disproportionately for the Republican candidate.
