Is voter fraud a problem in this election?

Could be. Registration drive group ACORN submitted voter registrations in Nevada for the entire lineup of the Dallas Cowboys. While the Nevada Secretary of State flagged these registrations, Investors Business Daily has a chilling report on the voter registration problems all across the country. The Dallas Cowboy registrations were only part of the problem in Nevada, leading authorities to raid ACORN's Las Vegas offices.
And of course, here in Washington there is that problem of underage teens registering to vote before they're 18. (More on that story from NPR affiliate 88.5 KPLU.)
Why should anyone care? Because every invalid registration leads to a potential invalid vote, which cancels out a legal vote. Voter fraud is the ultimate disenfranchisement.
It may be ill advised, but it is apparently not "fraudulent" and certainly not election fraud. Forbes has...
They will be voting early and often. Hopefully our side has some watch dogs looking out for these criminals at all levels.
I think we will see unprecedented voter fraud in this election. You already have voter "concerns" in Ohio, dead people on voter registration lists in Texas, registered felons (30,000) in Florida. We better have a safety net in place or it will be 1960 all over again.
Not to mention in Indianapolis they now have 105% of the voting age public registered to vote.
