Workers from Community Voters Project implicated in voter fraud

Workers from a second activist organization have been implicated in falsifying Milwaukee voter registration forms, bringing to 15 the number of voter registration workers who could face scrutiny for trying to sign up dead, imprisoned or fictitious voters, according to the Milwaukee Election Commission and the organizations that paid the workers.

For two of the workers, managers at the Community Voters Project caught much of the fraud, fired the workers and reported the problems before the registration cards were turned in, said Sue Edman, the election commission’s executive director, and Ayodele Carroo, the organization’s national director. That involved 15 or 16 cards, Carroo said.

In a third case, the Election Commission staff found problems with cards turned in by a Community Voters Project worker who already had been fired for unrelated reasons, Edman and Carroo said.

The Community Voters Project is a joint program of two national organizations, the Progressive Future Education Fund and the Fund for the Public Interest.

I searched both these groups and of course they are groups as liberal as you will find. The executive director of the Progressive Future Fund is a former Obama worker. Surprised? I think not.

These are Democrat front organizations that should be indicted for abuse of the 501(c)3) tax code.

I'm getting d@mn sick and tired of this crap. It's going on down here where I live too. Thousands of new registered Democrats. Really?

My in-law was a councilwoman in Jax Beach. Over half the voters in her district were fake with addresses that didn't even have dwellings on it.

Yet we get blamed for voter fraud. Sick!

Groups that go out and sign up voters need to be made illegal. Motor voter needs to be repealed. Only people that put forth at least a little effort to sign up to vote, should vote.

I am sick that the "reading tests" were used to discriminate against black voters in the pre-civil rights era. This now, and probably forever, prevents us from having some basic test for logical thinking or knowlege of candidates.

I am going to get a T-shirt made that says, "If you don't know 5 things about each of the leading two candidates, DO NOT VOTE!"

Regardless of what the left and media says, not voting isn't always bad.

This election is going to bring the most massive voter fraud in US history, to the point that it will likely tip the scales in favor of Der Obamastaffel.

The socialist elements of the democrat party have been working for months in a widespread, well-funded, coordinated effort to register the fictitious, the dead, the non-existent, and the illegal. The overwhelming number of those brought to justice for voter fraud are liberals, but the wheels of justice turn slowly or not at all and we have barely begun to scratch the surface.

Looks like they’ve moved beyond handing out packs of Marlboros.

You betcha it was. They need to hire him on the side to show 'em how to not get caught.

"....sign up dead, imprisoned or fictitious voters"

DUmocrats couldn't get elected as dog catcher without a lot of vote fraud.

Communists.

We signed up to vote in California while living there 2005-2007. There were people at tables in front of big chain stores and we filled out the application there. We never received our voter card. We think it is because we put REPUBLICAN on the app. So it was never turned in. I think they only turn in the DEMOCRAT apps. We registered again later and that time it went through. These community voters projects are crooked.

If you don't pay any taxes, you don't vote.

There are lots of special interests groups on both sides that encourage people to register to vote. The question is where to draw the line to avoid fraud?

Do you make people show up in person to register? How do you deal with those that can't easily get to a place to register? Do you have paid civil servants go to them?

Motor voter needs to be repealed.

I don't have a problem with people being able to register to vote when they go to get their drivers license. I do have a problem with the lax requirements for proving who you are and that you are eligible to vote when registering.

Motor voter itself isn't the really the problem. Make people prove who they are, their citizenship, and legal status when getting a drivers license, and the problems with motor voter as well as a lot of other problems disappear.
