Ask HN: Security researchers, Am I dumb?

First, I assign no party to have done the following, but I am genuinely curious:

Why do I feel like it is so easy to do the following:

1) Secure Equifax data for SSN, Names, Addresses

2) Ensure person is valid registered voter in SOS website

3) Identify which are least likely to vote

4) Request a ballot on behalf of valid registered voter

5) Spread requests across leases and owned properties or PO Boxes

6) Collect, fill in, and send ballots

People have done crazier things for lottos when the odds get right. The only hitch here is matching a signature to the voter registration, which if I were an enterprising lad, might be easy, no?
