Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto and Secretary of State Ross Miller announced Monday that voter registration fraud charges have been filed against an organization that works with low-income people and two of its employees in its Las Vegas office.
The complaint includes 26 counts of voter fraud and 13 counts for compensating those registering voters, both felonies.
The Association of Community Organization for Reform Now, Inc., also known as ACORN, operated a Las Vegas office that helped register low-income voters last year.
Throughout 2008, ACORN employed canvassers to register people to vote in Nevada, the complaint said. ACORN paid the canvassers between $8 and $9 an hour, but made continued employment and continued compensation based on the canvasser registering 20 voters per shift. Those who failed to sign up 20 voters per shift were terminated, the complaint said.

What happened to the other cities and states that cited irregularities with Acorn?
Gee, let’s see. You have to be 18 and an American citizen to vote...uhhh, maybe a driver’s license is required to vote?
Nah, they’ll find a way around that as well....
will now be targets of some sort of DHS / Justice Department criminal investigation.
or the targets of a White House press corps media smear. directed from the WH.
they aren't "cooperating" and "doing their fair share."
...your too inquisitive, now stop that hate speech!

How else could an inexperienced “community organizer” become president?

This is OK. I’m sure they’ll do a much more honest job with the Census. /s
$$$$$$$$$ and a corrupt government and media
Hey, according to this administration, and the DNC, including the FEC, dead people and people that do not exist have voting rights too!!!
Just another socialist interpretation of the Constitution....to suit their agenda, of course.
The ends, no matter how utopian and unachievable, always justify the means to a collectivist/fascist/socialist.
Ahh! the Clintons strike back, You know as in “The Empire Strikes Back”
I would imagine Hillary and Bill have a little grudge against ACORN.
“Hey, according to this administration, and the DNC, including the FEC, dead people and people that do not exist have voting rights too!!!”
Hey, I hope that was satire, for your sake. If so, you have until June 30 before satire is outlawed. Until then, you’ve likely committed a hate speech against the dead and the nonexistent.

If we had a functioning U.S. Justice Department, individual states would not have had to take this action. This is broad-spread, and an interstate conspiracy to defraud that goes all the way to the very top IMO. Not only should it take down individual players, but politicians, and even a political party in particular.
It’s my opinion that we have no idea how deep the public funds go to support the various tentacles of the leftists in the United States. One of them is intertwined in our K-12th grade education system. Another has a firm grip on our universities. I believe many of the land conservancies and other leftist special causes have been funded by the public, to the leftist political gain.
This should be of no surprise to either major political party and their players. It’s one of the things that causes me to have an underlying mistrust of Republican politicians.
Acorn is a communist group fronted by Working Families who Hillary also ran on the ticket of Working Families as well as the Democratic ticket. Working Families came about because the original one(forget it’s name)in Chicago went defunct; but not before they started grooming one of it’s members, Obama, for the POTUS
Dittos on that!!
Freeze ACORN’s assets and use them to reregister every person in Nevada.
The voter rolls have been corrupted and need to be purged. Make ACORN pay for it.
