early voters, what if...

If someone votes early (or absentee), and then dies before election day, should their vote be counted?

If the law says you can vote, and you vote, then you voted.

If you want to start confirming whether voters are living or dead AFTER they voted with their secret ballot, but before you count the vote, you are suggesting one big FUBAR system.

That's a good point.
