Nun Implicated in Voter Fraud
CMR ^ | February 20, 2013 | Matthew Archbold

A nun has been implicated by prosecutors in a troubling case of election fraud, according to local news reports.

It's been alleged by Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters that Sister Marge Kloos of the Sisters of Charity mailed in an absentee ballot of Sister Rose Marie Hewitt who had reportedly passed away on October 4th of last year.

Deters sent a letter to the Board of Elections that said:

Re: Deceased Voter Rose Marie Hewitt.

Please be advised that sufficient information has been developed with respect to the above mentioned matter to determine that there is probable cause to believe that criminal activity has occurred.
Hewitt had reportedly lived with Sister Marge Kloos, the dean of arts at the College of Mount Saint Joseph. Prosecutor Joe Deters told WCPO that Kloos is being investigated as the person who sent in Hewitt’s ballot.

Sisters of Charity president Sister Joan Cook told reporters that they are cooperating with police.

Sister Marge Kloos has shown strong position on politics in the past. In fact in 2011, Sister Marge Kloos signed a letter reprimanding House Speaker John Boehner for siding with the "reckless" Tea Party. The letter read:
This is a stark choice between responsible leadership that serves the common good and narrow ideology that makes tax cuts for the wealthy our most sacred national priority. As Ohio Catholics, we urge you to reject the reckless path urged by many Tea Party leaders in Congress. Now is the time to seek a compromise that reflects the Catholic values of solidarity with the most vulnerable and prudential judgment.

She was also quoted in 2000 in The Cincinatti Enquirer talking about a woman being elected bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. The story said:
"The possibility of electing a female bishop “gives women of other denominations, including the Catholic tradition, a great deal of confidence and hope that the various denominations are beginning to recognize the leadership skills of women,” said Sister Marge Kloos, a professor of religious and pastoral studies at the College of Mount St. Joseph.
CMR will keep you informed with updates on this story.

It sounds like Margie doesn’t mind the thieves in the federal government coming in and stealing the TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY (TEA) Party people’s money.

Hey lighten up. The good sister saw nothing wrong in this. She knows her friend would have voted for Obama had she lived, all she did was carry out her friends wish’s.

I actually had a Democrat tell me he saw nothing wrong in doing this for that very reason.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

As far as I am concerned her “so-called” good intentions are nothing of the sort. Voter Fraud is right up there on the Treasonable actions list for me.

The capacity of a democrat to rationalize evil is boundless.

In my neighborhood we had an 80 something year old Nun who broke into a nuclear weapons processing facility last year. The local media is trying to give her hero status of course.

Probably not the first time either. Some habits are hard to break.

Hewitt had reportedly lived with Sister Marge Kloos

That could have multiple meanings.

Now wait a minute. Did the late sister cast her vote before she died? It is a fine line I admit but if she (the now deceased Sister) filled out the paper work, signed and dated it, then died and the other Sister mailed it would not the vote still count?

Hey had it been me I’d want my vote to count.
