Vote Early (And Often?)

I always thought there was only one day to vote for President, but a bunch of states have decided it's just too strenuous an activity and we should have weeks instead.

Sure, I can understand where someone simply won't be available on election day that a pre-vote could be allowed, but weeks and weeks of votes rolling in? I like everyone being forced to come to a conclusion on the same day. Short of a hanging, nothing so concentrates the mind as an election.

Also (with both parties signing up tons of new voters) this is a new opportunity for chicanery. This country has an ugly history of making registration difficult for certain groups, but I fear the pendulum has swung in the opposite direction; registration nowadays is already quite easy, and attempts to make it easier also make voter fraud easier.
