It may technically qualify as voter fraud, I don't know. It's not like you are voting twice (voting at both addresses) or voting under an assumed identity, or paying someone to vote the way you want.
I-I'm just taking things without paying for th... In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

“Not dead yet!”
Sweet zombie Jesus.
Maria had to take my mother shopping this morning, since the woman refuses to stay put the way she's been ordered to.
The reason? A date with the Much Younger Family Jeweler.
And now Maria's traumatized because when she was loading the bags into her car, she happened to catch a glimpse inside one of them and spotted a box of Summer's Eve.
I just... I have no words.

Oo, such a cutie, GC. And I lurves his costume.

Oh dear. Is it okay if I find it just a wee bit amusing, Barb? I realize I'd probably feel differently if it were my own mom but... hee.

Honestly, I'd probably find it funny as hell—if it wasn't my own mother. And if I hadn't lived through this pattern time and again. Foolishly, I'd hoped she'd grown beyond this.
Clearly, foolishly.
No wonder I never was a wild child. Who could compete?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, while I'm still wearing my "oh, hai, I'm a total elections dork!!" hat, I really don't like the term "voter fraud" as it's commonly thrown around in recent years -- it's pretty much a scare tactic to try to delegitimize a lot of perfectly cromulent votes (or intimidate a lot of perfectly cromulent voters before they even try), when actual fraud is really very rare. Not Updating Your Address, or Showing Up At The Wrong Precinct, are human screwups; actual fraud is stuff like voting while dead, or registering lots of people who are dead, or hacking voting machines to stuff them with the names of the dead, and is usually a political machine problem rather than a person-showing-up-wrong problem. Also, happy Halloween.

registering lots of people who are dead
And then having them vote. No one is disenfranchised by non-people or the undead registering.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
thanks, amych. OC registrar was totally unhelpful but I got through to LA County and they said it's totally OK for me to vote at my old address.

Fair point. It's really hard to get the zombies to reliably turn out in large numbers on election day. (All-absentee states, your experiences may be different.)
