"So, if it were true, #1, I never saw or heard anything during my time with ACORN to suggest that this is part of a patter, and #2, so what if it is true, what's the problem?"

A New Jersey hospital is denying accusations that ACORN workers have been inside collecting absentee ballots for the state's gubernatorial race.
East Orange General Hospital CEO Kevin Slavin said Tuesday that "all proper protocols" were followed as part of its program to allow patients to vote via absentee ballot, and that no third-party groups were signing up patients.
"Other than the specifically designated and trained staff to hand out and collect these ballots, no advocacy groups were authorized nor allowed access to the hospital to hand out absentee ballots to patients as has been recently reported in unsubstantiated blogs and on political talk shows," he said in a written statement.
Slavin was referring to reports that claimed people wearing ACORN shirts were spotted distributing and collecting absentee ballots at a hospital in the area. The Wall Street Journal reported this Monday, as did BigGovernment.com -- the Web site that publicized recent undercover operations in which ACORN workers were filmed giving tax advice to two activists posing as a pimp and prostitute.

So healthcare reform will include ACORN recruiting voters at hospitals and clinics? Oh great!
What? Of Acorn workers NOT distributing ballots? (just kidding) I wonder if we could not petition our supervisor of election offices to find out who is applying for absentee ballots and run cross checks against vital statistics (dead people), and felons to see how many ACORN influenced ballots that may be floating around out there.
Hospital Administrators enjoy keeping their knee caps intact and functioning.
East Orange? Yeah right. No ACORN in East Orange. Sure, I believe it. /s
East Orange — not a nice place.
Hey, what will you believe? Your lying eyes or The Øne?
c'mon now...it's the re-education camps for you!
Morgues can't be too far behind...
“Other than the specifically designated and trained staff to hand out and collect these ballots.......
And are these specifically designated and trained staff the ACORNs.
Hannah would look great in a Candy Striper outfit.
...waits for the evidence to come POURING out....
“A New Jersey hospital is denying accusations that ACORN workers have been inside collecting absentee ballots for the state’s gubernatorial race.”
Probably true. They must have been too busy visiting funeral parlors, morgues and cemeteries for votes.
This trend will have to start in Chicago to maintain the tradition of the 'voting dead'.
You forgot to mention getting votes at the morgues too. <saec off
Denizens of cemeteries lead the list of absentee ballots.
And all those late dearly departed vote Democrat.
If Corzine wins....we’ll know their story is full of it.
My parents grew up, attended school and got married in East Orange. My sister and I were born there. It used to be such a nice town. Now I'd think twice about going there during the daytime, much less walk the streets at night. Sad to see how much it declined.

Eric “The Coward” Holden of the ‘Just Us’ Departmentnwill NOT go after these folks. Period.
