Recent changes to the postal voting system are considered by election officials to significantly increase the risk of electoral fraud. If it were to become widespread, such fraud could discredit the whole electoral process. Greatest concerns centre around the very limited time the new system allows electoral administrators to check that requests for postal ballots are genuine. The government is keen to increase the number of people who cast a vote and believe that people should not be denied a vote simply because they do not apply in good time.
