There was actually MORE fraud at the polls themselves, nationwide, than there has been via mail-in.

Even without a source, I'll bet you're right.
The problem as I see it is this:
In 1992 there was no internet fraud. There was limited use of the internet and limited commerce. The "fraudsters" were dumpster diving, phone soliciting, and door to door.
Now, you can't do anything but delete most e-mails. Why? The "fraudsters" moved on to greener pastures. When Willie Sutton was asked why he robs banks, his reply was "that's where the money is"
I'm afraid that if all voting migrates to mail, or internet, or interactive TV, the "fraudsters" will be out in droves. Just because they aren't here at the moment, just like the early internet, they very well may appear. Why? Because that's where the votes are.
Like the investment ad states----"past performance is no guarantee of future returns"
PS: Despite all this political BS, I still love you OBB, and you too, Blue.
