Yes that, but very early so the chance is high that I vote before the real guy.
When they prove they are the real guy you get busted for voter fraud. Congratulations.
So in your scenario, what happens if the person has already voted, or cast a postal vote? Or what happens when they turn up later? Do you think that they're just dismissed, or do you think that someone's going to investigate the fraud?
You clearly haven't thought this through.
And then you commit voter fraud and get the appropriate punishment.
Oh, and what about your own vote? Gonna vote twice? Might not want to do that...
