[DL] Votin'




 It's October 1876 in my campaign at the moment, and what with the general
 elections being geared up to round my way in real life at the moment, the
 topic of the elections in Deadlands has come up.  So, how does that work
 in the West, then?

 Where are the polling stations?  Schools?  The marshal's office?  The church?
 The saloon or theatre?

 Do you have to register beforehand?  What kind of I.D. do folks have?  Can
 you vote in one place, then catch a train to another town and vote there as
 well?  What kind of controls are in place?  It'd be tough to do in the West,
 but in a city Back East I can see people voting in one district, then putting
 on an amusing false moustache and voting again in another.

 Anybody think of any interesting things that might transpire during voting
 day?

 It may all be elementary, because my posse are mostly Northerners currently in
 the Confederacy (well, except one guy, who's not really real anyway), but
 I'm certainly interested to know how all this was handled in a... less
 well-organised place and time.  :>)
