[[Election]] officials in [[Georgia]] are launching an all-out investigation into allegations of [[Vote fraud|voter fraud]] that could involve over 100,000 people.<ref name="fraud">[http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/grorgia_voter_fraud/2008/11/04/147682.html ''NewsMax.com:'' "Georgia Voter Fraud Tops 100,000," Nov 4, 2008]</ref>

==Multiple Registrations==

The investigation has come about due to a report by TV news stations in [[Sunshinereview:Atlanta, Georgia|Atlanta]], [[Sunshinereview: Orlando, Florida|Orlando]], [[Sunshinereview:Tampa, Florida|Tampa]], and [[Sunshinereview:Cincinnati, Ohio|Cincinnati]] who compared voter rolls in Georgia with those in [[Florida]] and [[Ohio]]. The investigative journalists found more than 100,000 names that appear to be [[Voter registration|registered]] in more than one state.<ref name="fraud"/> 

Georgia’s master record of voters has 42,000 people on it who are also apparently registered in Florida, according to WSBTV.com. At least four instances of double voting have been uncovered already.<ref name="fraud"/>

[[Republican]] [[Georgia Secretary of State]] [[Karen Handel]] says the lack of a federal database to track voter registration leaves "an extremely high potential" for voter fraud:  "This is extraordinarily disturbing ... Does our system just trust that people won’t vote twice? From the federal level, yes pretty much."<ref name="fraud"/>
