The Rendell machine at work (vote fraud in the prisons?)
Power Line Blog ^ | 10/29/2004 | Deacon

Posted on 10/29/2004 6:35:29 PM PDT by Born Conservative

A reader sent me this message about voter fraud in Pennsylvania:
I'm listening to WPHT, 1210AM. Dom Giordano is interviewing PA Congressman Curt Weldon (from Pennsylvania's Delaware County). Weldon caught four women who visited a prison and they were filmed running from the prison with absentee ballots from the prisoners. It was filmed by a Philly TV station (not sure which one). Weldon caught these women red-handed, allegedly college girls, who should not have been inside and involved in this absentee ballot process. The women somehow went inside to "assist" the prisoners in filling out the ballots. These four women were untrained, they didn't know who was a felon and who was not. There was no one supervising what they were doing. The warden was filmed denying it happened and then he was shown a ballot and he put his hand to his mouth and told his prison staffer to "be quiet and not say anything". Curt Weldon and State Represetative Steve Barrar were eye witnesses to the fraud and there was a television station there. Weldon has taken legal action to [ensure] that ALL the absentee ballots from prisons be verified. But he did say that it's probably too late because most of the ballots have probably already arrived at the polling place of the criminal's hometown. This is a result of Gov Rendell's 9-page memo to all the wardens to make sure the jailed criminals get absentee ballots filled out.

Rendell is attempting a two-pronged strategy to promote Kerry's prospects in Pennsylvania: (1) secure the prisoner vote through improper tactics and (2) minimize the vote of Pennsylvania soldiers serving overseas. To the latter end, he initially would not extend the deadline for counting this vote, even though the ballots were sent out a month late. However, he finally backed down, and Pennsylvania will now count ballots postmarked by Nov. 2 and received by Nov. 10. So Rendell now is focused on the first prong of his effort to steal the election.

Another freeper gave me a "heads up" on this one, and I thought it was worthy of a separate post.

To all us Southeastern Pennsylvanians who really know Rendell all this is certainly NO surprise. He's been a partisan political hack for many, many years. He obviously thinks he can still function as if he's still
Philadelphia's mayor (8 Years), and get away with whatever his cold, ugly heart pleases. You see in Phila. the DemoncRATic machine has run (destroyed?) that city since post WW2. If one voices a anti Dem. comment he fears being beat up by the local union goons, as happened when Senator Dole was running for President in 1996. The goons beat up the protesters that were against Clintoon, and of course nothing ever came of the assault & battery charges, because they were Rendell's BROWN SHIRTS.

Not many years ago, during the Clintoon administration, he was the DNC Chairman. Rendell's rabid defense of that despicable former President during the impeachment was absolutely disgusting and disingenuous. He doesn't represent the people of Pennsylvania, and is a buffoon in a position that FAR exceeds his capabilities. Nuff said, you get the picture.

And this might end up backfiring against the Dems. I've been telling people that I'm not a Republican just an anti-corruption, anti-Dem.

Dom Giordana has been stellar here of late.
He ran with Rendell trying to stifle the military's absentee ballots and has also gotten the word out with Rep. Weldon on the prison issue.
Thank God we have folks like Dom and talk radio along with the internet. Otherwise we would be doing the Hillary goose-step.

Yup, that's our Governor. As crooked as they come.

I guess he'll have his union thugs patrolling the polling places and trying to intimidate Bush supporters.

I'm bringing pepper-spray with me in case any of these jerks get in my face.

Hope I won'thave to be calling on FReepers to pay my bail.

I heard Dom's show this afternooon @2 o'clock. Curt Weldon was on, and Andy Card with Dom. Curt and Dom told Andy what was going on in Phila prisons. All this was captured on KYW TV cameras, the girls ran away when they saw the cameras.

Curt has called in the ATTy. Gen of Pa. to investigate this vote fraud, and is going to the mat on it.

We are working our butts off in SE Pa. Today, we had people in the Upper Darby/Drexel Hill office from out of state to help in the cause. People from Virginia, and about 20-30 college age students manning the phones after their afternoon out on the streets.
