ABC News (radio) announced that over 46,000 New York City residents were registered to vote in both their home district and also in the state of Florida. The anouncement mentioned that two-thirds (2/3) are registered Democrats.
They should be prosecuted whomever they are.
This story has been out for a while, but this is the first time anyone but Fox has been covering it.
My take? Kerry sees he is going to lose Florida, so is greasing the wheels the election is "unfair". Heck, if he can pull out an argument that favors the republicans it works just as well for him when he legally challenges the whole process. I think that is his plan.
I am expecting legal fireworks in Florida in November. Even if it isn't close, they have a PR stake in the "unfair Florida" myth.
How on earth did they get permission from the DNC to report this?
Bust em then... very publically.
Last week the number was 68,000. Next week the news story will be all anew with a grand total of 25,000 New York cross-voters. By November the numnber may be down into the manageable and negligble hundreds. If Jeb Bush doesn't do something about this he needs an enema.
IIRC from another thread that 10,000 of these people voted twice in 2000. Wouldn't it follow that Bush probably had a legitimate win margin of 3000+ votes in FL if that were true????
It's starting!
Does the number 537 ring a bell?
Sorry, I tried running a search to see if it was posted previously, didn't see one. The Administrator can ax this if there is a similar thread.
There was mention by some official in the radio news account about a penalty for being registered in two states.
I have heard that Michael Moore is double registerd in Michigan and NYC
This is probably the tip of the "iceberg" of illegal votes cast in elections. Investigations like this could well end that claim that algore won the "popular" vote.
The Department of Justice needs to make some examples out of these people.
Mr. Ashcroft it is time to "secure" our elections.
bttt
A number of West Virginia RAT politicians are under inditement for vote-buying as well.
I hope that these people are being purged from the voting lists.
The fact that ABC is reporting this story is certainly news and worthy of its own thread. I had only previously seen this in a Newsmax article.
I believe that completely. A lot of New Yorkers own homes here in Florida, and register to vote here so that they can evade the NY taxes by claiming they are Florida residents. Why they would also be registered to vote in NY, I can't say, but either way, they are skewing the vote here in Fla.
5 years in jail. A long time for old people!
Just think of all those poor, terribly confused Democrats who jst can't, for the life of them, figure out thsoe terribly confusing ballots in Florida.
Why, some of them might actually have voted for Pat Buchanan in 2000!
