Voting fraud is alleged in East St. Louis election

The Dems had the nerve to say that there was no fraud when a hack judge extended the polling place hours of St. Louis 3 years ago.

Hrm, I'll let you decide if this deserves a "next civil war" ping. I fully expect the next one will start over voter fraud (it's being set up with every election), but this is (comically enough) a Dem frauding a Dem. Not sure if that counts.

I didn't know you had Hoosoier roots! Where are you from?

East St. Louis and Gary have about the same level of corruption, and it's not insignificant. Compton I don't know, but I would assume falls in the same category.

Tell ya' what, I'll ping the CWII list *pilgrims* and we'll let *them* decide how it fits in.

I agree that vote fraud could very easily be a *trigger factor* in seeing the house of cards collapse. And though East St. Louis has seen ALL sorts of such problems before, things are certainly no better on the MO side of the river, and the St Looey US Attorney's office is an equally corrupt part of the problem, and for more than the entire last decade.

"...but this is (comically enough) a Dem frauding a Dem."

The article says that it was known which candidates were favored. It was a general election so I would imagine the Dem was cheated against a pubbie.

On my mother's side, my great grandfather was born in Cana and my great grandmother in Medora, both in Jackson County. They left after the Civil War to go to Kansas for land under the Homestead Act.

Surprize, surprize! They only got him for multiple votes and deadman votes. Where are the charges of letting dogs vote like they did in 2002? Oh yes. that was St Louis MISSOURI, not Illinois.

[monkeywrench]

What's being set up at every election, is a lefty excuse to get the un to monitor our elections, like some 3rd world dump. The democrats (and muslims, too)are doing everything they can to cause people to doubt our institutions, govt., and the way we do things, here.

It could be a trigger.

I hope they're all over Wisconsin...

N'aaah. Nobody's allowed to look at this in Wisconsin. When documented cases of fraud are pointed out, the Demoncraps just claim that the VRWC is trying to deny them their votes. Photo ID? The Demoncrap Governor (who wouldn't prosecute anyone when he was the AG) vetoed the Bill.

St. Louis area ping.

Leander Brooks, 39, who has moved from East St. Louis to Overland

Overland Mo. ? I guess Brooks has plans for St. Louis County, now. He'll fit right in with Lacy Clay's gang.

[Lancey Howard]

Brooks served as one of three Democratic election judges in East St. Louis' 26th precinct for the election. The Democratic precinct committeeman there is Michael Collins, a cousin of Brooks, authorities said.

Collins, a former East St. Louis city councilman, was convicted two years ago of vote fraud for tampering with a 1995 school board election.

Brooks also is on probation in St. Clair County for credit card fraud.

Leander Brooks, 39, who has moved from East St. Louis to Overland, pleaded not guilty Friday to four election fraud charges at the federal courthouse in East St. Louis. He will be detained in jail at least until a bail hearing next week.

Ho hum.... Just a typical Democrat stronghold.
Guaranteed, things are the same in every other parasite nest (city) in the country.
