Although many on the left have a vested interest in denying it exists at all costs, the ineluctable truth of the matter is that voter fraud is a widespread phenomenon. Whether it is so rampant that it influences the outcome of major elections, as some maintain, or has unseated incumbent congressmen in past races, is open to debate.
However, the recorded episodes of fraudulent voting and the manipulation of the election process, from corrupt Democratic officials in Indiana, to vote harvesters in Texas, to political apparatchiks in Ohio, to the Republican secretary of state of Indiana, demonstrate that the number of people who have violated state and federal election laws is substantial. One organization in particular, ACORN, has submitted thousands of fraudulent voter registration forms and has had dozens of its former employees indicted for violating such laws.

When I lived in Fun City we would receive post cards telling us where our polling places were. They were printed in English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, whatever that writing is that is used on the Indian sub-continent and several others that I can’t remember. Perhaps some present NYC FReeper can complete my list.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The above should be a criminal act.
Without making English the ‘official language’ the ONLY place a non English document should show up ‘officially’ is in and around Immigration Facilities, even International Airports.
The only message for non English speakers applying for unemployment, welfare, Social Security (and its various theft annexes)and voting needs, FREE lawyers is in saying “You can use our services when you learn our language”.
Why are instructions for Drivers Licenses given in multi languages?
If you can’t speak the language, go to your Consulate/Embassy for assistance etc etc etc
You know, like WE have to do when in Mexico, Japan, China, Russia etc etc - (at least in my day)the only establishments that ‘catered’ to MY way of speaking were the ones that were trying to get in my pockets.
I am sure that while in Japan, had I been on trial or whatever, the Japanese Govt would NOT have provided me with everything in English - to make it easier for me....

Anyone else have trouble posting today?
I am doing everything the same as usual and about 1 out of 3 posts are double?
Also, I have had to ‘relog’ in quite a few times in last couple of days...no problem, just click on and it connects but...
Maybe I have a ‘cookie’ problem that is affecting the posting???
I personally believe that vote fraud is one of the reasons the GOP in Michigan went ahead with RTW legislation. The unions are a major source of fraud and funding. I think the GOP decided that it was more effective to dig them out by the roots than trying to build many multiple cases and spend years in court so they can get a slap on the wrist.
After all, the two democrat party operatives who were charged and convicted in the fake tea party scam of 2010 still managed to plea bargain their way down to probation and fines.
I have a first hand account from an eyewitness in Durham, North Carolina, who says that Democrats were picking up Mexican illegal aliens and taking them to the polls “to vote for Obama.” They had a bus to pick them up. They had already registered the illegal aliens. None of them had any problem casting a vote — no one questioned their legal status.
I left NYC ten years ago, but I am sure that those postcards, at that time, had the FIVE languages I mentioned, PLUS a couple more.
This was in Woodside, Queens. Note, I’m speaking of the notifications, NOT what went on in the polling place.

Why is no one with a public voice speaking against the electronic vote and vote counting machines that have clearly expanded the level of fraud and corruption in the US voting system? Absolute power...................... As long as we are armed, those in government will not have absolute power.
There are five foreign languages on the Board of Elections website.
Thank you.
Thought I might have been having *another* senior moment. ;)
When I first was allowed to register to vote, some 18 months AFTER I had finished my active duty military obligation, I needed to prove my literacy. This was accomplished by presenting my HS diploma. My BC and DL were presented to prove my citizenship and residence.
With that, there is no need to print ballots in anything but English.

That is how I thought it should work.
I was(am) of Irish descent and pretty much raised around Italians and remember it was an act of ‘pride’ that they spoke English...Good friend of mine in HS lived next door to his grandparents and the ‘rule’ was No Italian in his house and the grandparents tried to refrain from speaking Italian whenever possible - when others were around...Maybe mostly just a ‘show’ but I hung around there enough to have observed that ‘rule of thumb’.
Funny how far this multicultural thing has come, although we were ‘allowed’ to hang out together it was often frowned upon to date....Never really did find out who the ‘bad guy’ was supposed to be....
Although since becoming a father of 2 girls, I came to understand that most ‘teenage boys are persona non grata’ when it comes to daughters, a tradition that I have carried on to my grandaughters...HA......
That was the rule of thumb back then. Not so much now days and most times it making fun of the gringo.
