Cochran’s campaign manager and two others named as Black minister admits voter fraud in GOP primary
Coach is Right ^ | 7/1/14 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

Things have just turned very sour for the GOPe and Thad Cochran.

Angered by the fact that Thad Cochran’s camp stiffed him after he helped them commit a massive voter fraud in the GOP primary, a Black Mississippi minister, the Reverend Stevie Fielder of the First Union Missionary Baptist Church, has come forward to admit his part in the crimes and he is naming names.

Fielder says that acting in concert with Saleem Baird of the Cochran camp he agreed to pay $15.00 to Black Democrats who crossed over to vote for Cochran in last month’s runoff against Chris McDaniel. Fielder was to receive $16,000 in return.

The conduct admitted to by Rev. Fielder constitutes violations of both federal and Mississippi State voting laws and could put all of the conspirators in prison. What makes this charge so believable is that just three years ago the head of the Mississippi NAACP was sent to prison for voter fraud.

Text messages and a recorded interview in the possession of Gotnews.com confirm that not only Baird but Cochran Campaign Manager Kirk Sims was also involved in the fraudulent scheme to buy Black votes in a state where they are readily available for sale.

As revealed by Fielder, the plot called for him to deal with Baird and a person named “Amanda” who is most likely Amanda Shook, Cochran’s Director of Operations. It is important to note that Saleem Baird is a paid member of the staff of Mississippi’s other United States Senator, Roger Wicker. This suggested that the entire Mississippi Republican establishment was in on this crime. Given that Baird was arrested in 2011 for operating an illegal strip club and still kept his job with Wicker it is entirely likely that Baird would be seen as the...

This is why the GOP is called the stupid party. Even when they turn on their conservative constituents to commit fraud with the black community, they trust the black community to keep the fraud secret.

What slimey goofballs the old establishment is.

Really? If John McCain could be reelected so many times I think MS can figure out how to keep Thad in DC. I have great confidence that the MS electorate is even dimmer than AZ. Say what youd like about Thad and his republican buddies but the real problem is us...we have the vote and dont apprise ourselves of the issues and some are too lazy/apathetic to vote. We’re the problem...

But McCain says we should be thrilled that the GOP is making inroads into the Black vote - $15 one at a time.

Question is will the Black vote go to the highest bidder in the general? Can that vote be bought or will it still go demorat even if the bid is lower?

At least the Democrats are intelligent enough to use voter fraud against the competing party. Maybe in that respect they are more qualified to run the banana republic that America has become.

One would think that a Black Pastor accusing a sitting Republican Senator from south of the Mason Dixon line of engaging in voter Fraud, graft, and dirty tricks would peak the interest of the Mainstream Media.

.......... Crickets.........

Let us hope this gets legs and fouls Cochran's nest!

Next thing we'll see is Thad on TV saying: "What? An election? Am I in it?"

Just think, for a mere $30 million dollars, the GOP could purchase 2 million black votes.

They should start a fund called the Black Folks Diversification Fund.

BFD for short.

If you can’t beat them, bribe them.

I would think the MSM would jump all over this. It is a great opportunity to sink the MS Pub party & pick up a Senate seat.

Yes it is. That's progress.

But note that there is no mention of the accusations of racism against McDaniel in the Cochran campaign. The ads. The radio spots. The Robo calls. The sort of thing that McCain calls "reaching out" to the black community.

Does anyone here actually believe that we would be upset if McDaniel or even Cochran "reached out" to the black community with a message of smaller government and less taxes?

The answer is obvious.

And McCain and the MSM know it but won't report it.
