The radical left-wing 'community organizer' group ACORN is doing all it can to steal the presidential election in Michigan. According to the Detroit Free Press:
Several municipal clerks across the state are reporting fraudulent and duplicate voter registration applications, most of them from a nationwide community activist group working to help low- and moderate-income families.
The majority of the problem applications are coming from the group ACORN, Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, which has a large voter registration program among its many social service programs. ACORN's Michigan branch, based in Detroit, has enrolled 200,000 voters statewide in recent months, mostly with the use of paid, part-time employees.
"There appears to be a sizeable number of duplicate and fraudulent applications," said Kelly Chesney, spokeswoman for the Michigan Secretary of State's Office. "And it appears to be widespread."
Chesney said her office has had discussions with ACORN officials after local clerks reported the questionable applications to the state. Chesney said some of the applications are duplicates and some appear to be names that have been made up. The Secretary of State's Office has turned over several of the applications to the U.S. Attorney's Office.
ACORN describes itself as "the nation's largest community organization of low- and moderate-income families, working together for social justice and stronger communities." ACORN, Sol Stern writes, "promotes a 1960s-bred agenda of anti-capitalism, central planning, victimology, and government handouts to the poor."
Predictably, an ACORN spokesman shrugs off the reports, saying that any problems with voter registration in ACORN's Detroit office are just honest mistakes.
Yeah, right.
again?
This has got to stop.
I think the last couple elections wouldn’t have been so close had it not been for demoncrat voter fraud.
Watch you local elections officials closely.
That is what we need to do. Mobilize on Election Day.!!!
Perhaps some 527 groups could start running ads in these states reminding folks that it’s a felony to cast a fradulent vote, that way some might not be so quick to commit fraud.
It’s a communist front organization. They will not be held accountable for their actions by the leftist media.
Remember the 1 commandment of communism: the end justifies the means.
does MI now have a voter ID law?
We need loads of Republican volunteers to moniter polls, and watch out for fraudelant voters. WHO OVERSEES THE VOTES ANYWAY? There needs to be some monitoring this year especially!
We should expect MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD for Obama.
Worse than when Kennedy gang stole the 1960 election.
How many more convictions will it take for people to realize that ACORN is lying when it says this crime isn’t part of its agenda, that it makes efforts to stop it within the organization?
Indicted and/or convicted in Ohio, Missouri, Colorado and Washington. And that’s just where they got caught and a liberal state law enforcement didn’t look the other way.
So this is what a Community Organizer does. Up to this point I had no idea what they really do.
I live in NJ, I should be busy.
ACORN = Association of Communist Organizations Ruining the Nation
So far I have Chicago, Detroit, Seattle, Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, New Mexico, Florida, Colorado, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Virginia, Connecticut...and I'm sure I'm missing more.
You should realistically expect this to occur in all 57 states....
CA....
Maybe we can get Jimmy Carter to monitor the votes. LOL
Yeah let’s put the fox in the pen with the chickens..lol
