State representative Brad Tschida conducted an audit of Missoula County votes with the assistance of the county's elections office.
It is against the law to count such ballots, as there would be no way to match up signatures to verify that the vote is from a registered voter, and no postmarked date to determine whether the ballot was cast on time.
Vote fraud in Missoula County-the state's second most populous county-could determine some statewide elections.
Another 21 percent either limit absentee voting to those in the military or to voters in the hospital, and that one present a photo voter ID to acquire a ballot.
If concern about voter fraud with mail-in ballots is delusional, it is a delusion shared by most of the world.
The audit in Montana will hopefully be a wakeup call before the Senate votes on election reforms.
Up until January, Lott was the senior adviser for research and statistics at the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Legal Policy, and he worked on vote fraud issues.
