EDIT: If there were instances of people's names already being crossed off when they went to vote, there would be chaos in this country. My guess is that it's very rare for someone to try this crap over here

With some precincts that have barely %30 turnout, you have a %70 chance of committing fraud and none would be the wiser. If you were smart, you could target people in certain demographics and greatly increase those odds (trolling obits would allow you to cast potentially hundreds of votes per station) . Whatever fraud is exposed would be minimal and dismissed as such.

One problem I see with this, is that in order to pull this off, you have to know for a fact that the person hasn't already voted, because you're busted if you identify yourself as someone who has already voted. Also, you would have to know enough about the person to know which precinct they vote in. It would probaly take some collaboration from the election workers so that you aren't just calling out random names.
