Former Philadelphia Judge of Elections Indicted for Election Fraud in Favor of Democrats

United States Attorney William McSwain announced on Thursday that Domenick DeMuro, a former Judge of Elections in Philadelphia, has been charged with multiple counts of election-related fraud:

 “(1) conspiracy to deprive Philadelphia voters of their civil rights by fraudulently stuffing the ballot boxes for specific Democratic candidates in the 2014, 2015, and 2016 primary elections, and (2) a violation of the Travel Act, which forbids the use of any facility in interstate commerce (here, a cell phone) with the intent to promote certain illegal activity (here, bribery),” per a DOJ release.

U.S. Attorney @USAttyMcSwain says, “Demuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear."

The case was investigated by the FBI and @PAStatePolice.— Tom Winter (@Tom_Winter) May 21, 2020

DeMuro conceded that a political consultant, whose name was not revealed, paid him to illegally doctor votes for multiple Democratic candidates. The bribery money would be disguised as "consulting fees":

“DeMuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear. This is utterly reprehensible conduct. The charges announced today do not erase what he did, but they do ensure that he is held to account for those actions,” said U.S. Attorney McSwain. “Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy. If even one vote is fraudulently rung up, the integrity of that election is compromised. I want the public to know that this investigation is active and ongoing, and my Office is taking every possible step that we can to ensure the integrity of the upcoming primary and general elections in the nine counties of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.”

DeMuro’s indictment eviscerates the narrative, pushed predominantly by Democrats, that voter fraud is non-existent.

Since this was a Democratic primary, it was in favor of some Democrats, and against others. No Republican candidates appear on the ballot.

President Trump needs to send Federal law enforcement and tough GOP election monitors to every polling station in the swing states and some swing districts in November.

It would follow, notwithstanding the specificity of the indictment, that he also committed fraud for Hillary in November 2016. But Trump carried Pennsylvania. Election fraud fails if there’s heavy turnout.

That’s what the Dems didn’t calculate on in 2000. They had all these dead people in the Southeastern counties of Florida, with plenty of illegal aliens and cooperative poll watchers willing to work their magic. But the premature calling of Florida failed to discourage the Panhandlers, and the Elian case p!ssed off the Cubans so much that they came out in droves. So Panhandlers and p!ssed off Cubans narrowly won the day. Get p!ssed off if you aren’t already, and vote.

Wow, what a good Democrat he is. Vote early, vote often, vote repeatedly.

Maybe the Russians hacked his voting hand. Darn Russians!!!

What other races did he commit fraud?

The democratic primary is the only election that has mattered in Philadelphia for decades.
