Two liberal vote harvesters were busily filling out fictitious mail-in ballots, but were unable to complete their daily quota because their handlers inadvertently provided them with more ballot forms than the names of people, which they could use to forge signatures.
In flash of inspiration they decided to make up the difference by going to the nearby cemetery; to garner a sufficient number of names from the tombstones.
One mossy, age-worn stone proved to be particularly problematic, and they had difficulty deciphering the name of the deceased. “Let’s just skip this one,” said one of the ladies.
“No,” replied the other, “he’s got just as much right to vote as anybody else in this graveyard.”
