Rejected petition 'Urgent reform of the Postal Vote system to discourage deliberate fraud.'

Urgent reform of the Postal Vote system is needed, due to public concern over potential corruption and misuse in UK elections such as in 2004 at Slough, Peterborough, Bradford West, and more recently at Oldham.
Postal Votes should be restricted to those in the forces, and the proven infirm only.
