BREAKING: Allegations Point to Cochran Campaign in Mississippi Senate Vote Buying Scandal
RedState ^ | 6/30/2014 | Aaron Gardner

Posted on 06/30/2014 7:21:24 PM PDT by Viennacon

An audio interview has surfaced in which the interviewee claims that he was to be paid by the Cochran camp to grease voters in the Mississippi GOP Senate runoff election. The audio interview, which coincides with a separate audio recording and batch of evidence produced by the newly launched GotNews.com, a project by Charles C. Johnson, alleges that the Cochran campaign conspired with a Mississippi Reverend to buy the votes of African American voters, who happen to be democrats.

Before I get into the weeds of what is in the audio interview and transcript, which are both below, let me set up the stage a bit. What is alleged to have occurred is illegal and very serious business. Under Mississippi law the alleged crimes could lead to Thad Cochran being removed from the Senate. Everything that follows comes from sources either on the ground in Mississippi, or those working closely with them.

Reverend Fielder has claimed to have evidence that would prove illegal activity took place in the Mississippi GOP Senate run off election. Furthermore, the evidence he claims he has would implicate the Barbour machine and a staffer to Cochran’s Senate campaign. The motivations of the Reverend are not those of a saint. As is made clear throughout the interview and in the transcript, this Reverend is looking to get paid to provide information, just as he sought to get paid to deliver votes by illegal means. Reverend Fielder claims that Cochran’s people were supposed to pay him approximately $15,000 for his efforts, but failed to do so after the incumbent Senator had achieved victory in the run off.

With all of that said, if the evidence is produced and validated, I don’t know how much longer Thad Cochran will be a Senator.

Since he’s not dead it’s ok to say - The world is worse off for Cochran having been born.

It is not good that the Totalitarian Democrats and the Totalitarian Republicans are on the same side against We the People and the Constitution. This whole Cochran thing is a bad omen.

I do not know the particulars of this site but I do know that at most sites the ‘Contact Us’ link refers to the administrators of the site and not necessarily the owners of the content.

That is done expressly for the purpose of ‘insulating’ the owners from objectionable emails.

This needs to progress from allegations to evidence.

Yeah, too bad the establishment there is the ones that would have to prosecute them. It’s also a felony to offer a reward “dead or alive” for someone like say, oh, I don’t know, George Zimmerman, but do you see any black panthers going to prison for it?

Good job. Discouraging folks from contacting RNC. Only takes a minute and nothing to lose. Some people will always come up with a reason to not act.

When you are willing to violate the law and trust of the people in order to stay in power, you no longer deserve to have it.
