Acorn involved (surprise!) in voter fraud

Posted by MacRanger as Acorn, voter fraud

The largest case of voter fraud in Washington State history and it’s…..from the left:

“King and Pierce County prosecutors filed felony charges today against seven people who allegedly committed the biggest voter-registration fraud in state history.

The defendants, who were paid employees and supervisors of ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, concocted the scheme as an easy way to get paid, not as an attempt to influence the outcome of elections, King County Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg said.

“This was an act of vandalism upon the voter rolls of King County,” Satterberg said.

In addition to filing criminal charges, Satterberg said state and local officials had signed a five-year agreement with ACORN that requires the organization to beef up its training and procedures for detecting and reporting fraud.

ACORN agreed to pay King County $25,000 for its investigative costs and acknowledged that the national organization could be subject to criminal prosecution if fraud occurs again.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this is the worst case of voter-registration fraud in the history of the state of Washington. There has been nothing comparable to this,” state Secretary of State Sam Reed said at a news conference with Satterberg, King County Executive Ron Sims and Acting U.S. Attorney Jeff Sullivan.

ACORN President Maude Hurd said in a statement, “It appears that a handful of temporary workers were trying to get paid for work they hadn’t actually done. While we don’t think the intent or the result of their actions was to allow any ineligible person to vote, these employees defrauded ACORN and imposed a burden on the time and resources of registrars and law enforcement.”

The announcement of criminal charges came after the King County Canvassing Board revoked 1,762 allegedly fraudulent voter registrations submitted by ACORN employees.

Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Stephen Hobbs told the board that six ACORN workers had admitted filling out registration forms with names they found in phone books last October. The canvassers filled out the forms while sitting around a table at the downtown Seattle Public Library, Hobbs said.”

Yeah, “We’re innocent!”

Pay no attention to the previous frauds in St. Louis, Kansas City, and numerous other places around the country.

ACORN is involved in more than voter registration fraud. ACORN is closely allied with other national dissident organizations to cordinate national “actions” which enclude demonstrations, letter writing, phone calls, and other activities designed to influence elected and appointed public officials. The stated aim of these national groups is “to unite all dissident groups and empower them to overthrow the government.” ACORN has a big black dude in it’s payroll who has been involved in organizing demonstrations all over the country. I first saw him leading the demonstrators who disrupted a luncheon in Washington DC, at which Newt Gingrich was the speaker. They barged into the dinning area banging on school lunch trays and made so much noise that Gingrich was unable to give his speech.

I next saw this man when he and one other protestor showed up at a KKK meeting which was held at the Laurel Country court house in London, KY. He jumped out of the car they arrived in, ripped open his shirt to display “FUCKKK” which was written on his chest in lipstick. The only other people who showed for this KKK Ralley besides about a dozen people in KKK robes were me and my escort, who said he had never seen a KKK person or rally and wanted to see what they were doing, the State Police, an Elvis Impersonator, the news media, and these two demonstrators. Needless to say the news cameras zoomed in on the two demonstrators and made it seem like a headline story.

The third time I saw this man he was leading a demonstration in Texas protesting the killing of James Byrd.

I am sure these are not the only demonstrations he has organized and led. Since ACORN is allied with other national organizations dedicated to disrupting and overthrowing our government it should surprise no one that they would be involved in illegal voter registration. But it isn’t only ACORN that is doing this. If ACORN was involved, then other national organizations were also involved. All these national organizatiions coordinate their activities and when you find one doing something you will find others doing the same thing in other parts of the country. And the worst part of all this is, they are doing it with our tax money since they get federal grants to fund their “community” activities.

The race for governor in that State was close. The names fail me today, but I remember following the story. The “elected” governor gain her governership after several recounts until she got the number she wanted. If these illigal votes turned to her favor, what retribution does the “Loser” of this race have?
