Aside from Diebold etc.[1], the only fraud happening in our elections are a) gerrymandering and b) racist voter suppression laws like those in North Carolina, where a state senator admitted as much in a televised interview.
Let's start with that. To reduce forgery, match the ID against an image of it on a computer. Better yet, scan it into a computer and have the computer do the matching.
Also, take a new picture. This can be used to help catch and prosecute any remaining fraud. More importantly, such fraud would be strongly discouraged by the increased possibility of being caught.

I asked:
"What measure of proof do you require?"
Honestly, I expected something related to proving gerrymandering, disenfranchisement, or something.
The idea is the state will no disenfranchise you for making a mistake while making the cost (risk) of bulk voter fraud higher as to be infeasible.
Nobody with sense would try, it carries severe punishment (it's a felony) for virtually no benefit to the person taking the risk, and really virtually no effect on the election either.

Is this the case across the US?
Whether the voter registration rolls are up-to-date, that's another matter as well. And double voting is only one type of fraud.
Because it doesn't fucking matter? Also going to need to see some receipts for that.
