One of the more subtle things done for voter manipulation here in OK is putting the polling places in the lobbies of nursing homes.

You have to drive and find parking. But Gertrude, class of '65, can hobble out into the lobby and vote like Focks Noos told her to, and it only takes five minutes. And there are 200+ residents right behind her doing the same thing, at every nursing home that has a polling place in it on election day.
