Once again, the successful registration of a non-human shows the lack of verification or basic scrutiny provided to incoming registration applications.  Don’t even try to mislead Americans that some rigorous process of verification is established to confirm the identity and basic information on the voter.  NADA. Requiring a photo ID prior to registration would prevent this type of canine travesty. 

An Albuquerque, New Mexico man says he successfully registered his dog to vote in Bernalillo County.  The dog owner said he saw a voter registration booth on the University of New Mexico’s campus a few weeks ago and decided to see how easy it would be to register his dog to vote.

He said he was trying to expose the problems with the registration system. He received the dog’s voter registration card in the mail Wednesday.

“They should verify. Somebody should have verified this information and somebody should have come out and took a look at exactly who it was. But I made up a birth date, and I made up a social security number and I had a voter registration card in my hand for Buddy two weeks later,” the dog owner said.
