Voter Fraud: What to Look For; How to Stop It

Note: In most States, it is not legal to have your phone or a camera in within a polling place. Therefore, if you see fraud inside a polling place, please go outside to report it.

The following is a list of the most commonly witnessed voter fraud schemes:

  Intimidation – best example: Black Panthers stationed outside polling place in paramilitary gear with nightsticks. Another example: Republican poll-watchers are booted from a polling place in St. Louis 

   Vote Buying – example: people giving cigarettes or money to homeless people in exchange for coming to the polls and voting for Al Gore in 2000. Most common in same-day registration states.

 

  Vote coercion – example: youths organized (and illegally taken out of school) in Racine, WI knock on doors and literally drag elderly people to the polls to vote against Scott Walker.

  Bussing: two types: 1) busses/vans – often Church busses – driving people from polling place to polling place to vote multiple times in Florida; 2) unions sponsored busses driving members from Michigan to vote against Scott Walker in Wisconsin. This is often accomplished in same-day registration states; otherwise, a large number of false registrations are filed in advance. Provisional ballots are sometimes used.

  Misinformation Campaigns: mailers, robo-calls, or strategically located flyers/posters with misinformation about voting hours, polling places/locations, etc. Intended to suppress the votes of the targeted groups or individual voters.

  Mystery Man or Hide-and-Seek:

a.       A border-town issue; a stranger shows up to vote in a polling place close to the NH boarder – the person is recognized as out-of-place because, in the small town, everybody knows each other. Stranger drives off across the State line.

b.      Poll monitor reported multiple incidents where voters were allowed to vote after suspicious exchanges with Poll Workers. Poll worker would tell voter that their name was not on the list. Voter kept giving other possible names until, at last, they gave one that was on the list.

  Ballot Tampering/Theft: example: an unknown person is seen outside a polling place throwing bags filled with ballots in the trunk of a car; the polling place later reports “missing” ballots. Sometimes there are “unguarded” ballot boxes or vote recorders (black boxes”.

  Illegal Vote Time Extension: false Affidavits (prepared in advance) of intimidation are brought before a Judge in St. Louis – the Judge issues an order extending polling hours in cherry-picked districts (so that Dems can gin-up as much fraud as the deem “necessary). After obtaining the order extending the hours, pre-set robo-calls go out to select Democrat voters who are not at the polls during the legal and ordinary hours, telling them the polling hours have been extended.

9 Over-votes: a district reports more actual voters in a Wisconsin county than registered voters (turnout exceeds 100% of registered voters). This is usually reported before polls close and is a red flag to send in people to monitor fraud.

1 Multiple votes: a person is seen and recognized voting in more than one local polling place.

1Illegal voter: in a small California polling place located in a private house, known illegal aliens are seen casting votes against Bob Dornan.

1Motor-Voter violators: a non-citizen filing out a non-driver ID application also fills out the voter registration required to be attached to driver and non-driver ID apps by the DMV.

1Excess provisional ballot requests: a polling place reports an unusual number of same-day requests for provisional ballots from unregistered voters in NYC. The ballots are counted, changing the result of a close race.

1 Raffles: common around Indian reservations. A raffle is held near a polling place in South Dakota – you can enter the raffle by going to the polling place first and voting for Tom Daschle. There is usually an “escort” involved who bring the person to the polling place and “helps” them to vote.

1 Illegal Escorts/Aids or “vote brokers”: Example – in Florida, 2004, a person poses as a “voting aid,” offering to bring elderly people into the polling place and “help” them vote. Of course, the ballot is cast for John Kerry. Sometimes a person is spotted in polling stations “helping” multiple people vote, yet they cannot provide any evidence that they are there in any official capacity. Second example: person posing as an “official interpreter” does the same thing to non English-speaking voters, making sure the voter casts their ballot for a particular candidate.

1Dead Voters: quite famous – a Republican poll watcher or worker in Chicago notices someone obtaining a ballot for someone they know to be dead.

1Stuffing the ballot box: speaks for itself. In a modern scenario, a poll-worker is seen continuously running scantron ballots through the tally machine, even though no voter has been handing that person ballots. Or, a ballot box, in any form, is removed from the polling place and tampered with (possibly “stuffed” literally).

1Break-Downs: the electronic tally machine “breaks down” and is removed from polling place, unattended or by non-official personnel. 

1Voting outside polling places: In Miami, 2000, election “witnesses” bring paper ballots to nursing homes on Election Day. They coerce elderly to vote; seal the envelopes, and submit Democrat ballots. GOP ballots are tossed in the trash. (Florida has since changed this law, but it may exist elsewhere).

2House of Registration: In Ohio, 2008, persons rent houses or apartments. Out of state voters come and use the address to register and vote illegally in Ohio.

2 Media Tampering: The MSM releases early “exit polls” skewed to show Candidate A with a large lead, or make an early “call,” declaring a winner. The intent is to discourage Candidate B’s voters from making the effort to go vote (they think their guy has already lost). Florida Panhandle, 2000. 2004 Exit polls showing John Kerry with an enormous, and false, lead.

 

IF YOU SEE IT, REPORT IT!!!

Follow them out to their vehicle and photograph the license plate. That will track them down to where they actually live and offers a more solid case. The problem is the damage is allready done and our guys lose.

Take your camcorder with you, use the telephoto setting and stand outside of the polling place limit. Among other things, put it on YouTube ASAP. With all the personal electronics so prevalent, this ought to be almost real time.

Had to place a call to the Orange County Registrar of Voters.
The incompetent poll workers at my polling place were allowing people to register and vote today! California State law is you must be registered no later than fifteen days prior to the election, or October 22. The person I spoke to said she would make a notation next to that polling place, I asked if maybe someone should give them a call and tell them law and she went silent.
