Double standard exists for voting errors

It was with amusement when I learned that the loyal opposition, the Republicans, could not count nor add (Romney wins Iowa caucuses … two weeks later, no, no, no, Santorum wins).
When they make a mistake, it is dismissed as an honest one. When others make mistakes, it is classified as voter fraud. I propose that at future Republican caucuses, photo IDs must be presented because I suspect that some attendees must have voted multiple times. Do I have supporting data? No.
Sound familiar?
