'''Voter fraud''' includes voting in the name of people who have died, or moved away, or already voted in the same election in another state, or are otherwise ineligible to vote.  Estimates of the amount of voter fraud are as much as a percentage point or more in an election.  It can change the outcome of a close election.

But even areas not known for voter fraud have unexplained discrepancies between voter registration lists and estimates of the number of eligible voters.  In Indiana, for example, one expert estimated that there were 1.3 million more names on the registration rolls than there were eligible voters in the state.  Indiana enacted a law requiring display of a photo ID by most voters prior to voting, Ind. Code 3-5-2-40.5, and the constitutionality of this law was upheld on appeal in ''Crawford v. Marion County Election Board'', 2007 U.S. App. LEXIS 110 (7th Cir. Jan. 4, 2007).
