If It's Close, They Can Cheat [fraud is underway in Ohio]
PowerLine ^ | September 24, 2004

Posted on 09/24/2004 11:27:14 AM PDT by John Jorsett

The fraud is underway, as reported by the Cleveland Plain Dealer:

More than 1,000 voter registration forms and absentee ballot requests may be fraudulent in Lake and Summit counties, where investigations of irregularities are broadening.

Lake County Sheriff Daniel Dunlap said Thursday that he will investigate an attempt to register a dead person and other possibly fraudulent documents that were submitted to the Lake County Board of Elections.

Elections officials have said hundreds of absentee ballot applications and dozens of voter registration cards are in question. Lake County Prosecutor Charles Coulson, also involved in the probe, said the problems are more significant than originally thought.

"We've seen voter fraud before, but never on this level," Coulson said Thursday. "I grew up in Chicago and this looks like the politics of Mayor Daley in the '50s and '60s."

Lake election and law enforcement officials said their investigation is centered on absentee registration attempts by the nonpartisan NAACP's National Voter Fund and an anti-Bush, nonprofit group called Americans Coming Together, or ACT Ohio.

"Americans Coming Together" is a shadow organization that is basically a surrogate for the Democratic Party.

Our friend Hugh Hewitt 's new book is called If It's Not Close, They Can't Cheat. Of course, the converse is, if it is close, the Democrats can and will cheat. Let's hope that Ohio and other critical states aren't so close that the Dems can achieve victory through fraud, or, almost as bad, tie up the election for months in the courts.

I think Ohio was about 2 points closer in 2000 than it should have been for this reason.

W's gonna win Ohio but the Fraudocrats will try and cheat.

There have been several states recently, that are exposing fraudulant registration to vote....Indiana (Gary), Ohio, IIRC also Michigan and Pennsylvania, not to mention the double registrations in NY and Florida.....

Looks like someone is doing their job and we should be appreciative. A 10-15 year term in prison, may make others think twice about trying it.

What crime is more important than stealing America's democracy?

Vote fraud should be punishable by life in prison. I'm tired of the forgers, criminals, and elitists who want to steal the value of my vote.

In St. Louis MO the polls stayed open as long as people were still coming in, in 2000.

Elsewere in the state polls closed at 8:00 sharp.

Stay on top of this!! I am picking up on voter fraud stories all over battleground states. Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, New Mexico...dead men registering to vote, voter addresses that are empty lots, entire neighborhoods requesting absentee ballots, voter registration forms written in the same hand...Folks do you smell that rat smell, I sure do.

Do the "FREEP" and shine the bright lights on these stories.

Someone is doing their job, BEFORE THE ELECTION! That is what is important....It was actually the state Attorney General in Indiana that brought the Gary folks down....Still being investigated and more indictments to come...

I wish some one would compile a list of what has been exposed in which states already.....Sorry I don't have time....Might be a good thread where we all could contribute our finds.

Cheating is disenfranchisement of every honest vote..

Maybe the NAACP should ask the UN to monitor the election practices of the "nonpartisan" NAACP.

Actually, Cayahoga County is where central Cleveland is located. Lake County is the Western suburbs.

Add Wisconsin to your list. Some preregistration's have been challenged & I believe tossed. Preregistration is not even necessary here.

Nationally, that would be a 2,000,000 vote scheme. 2 million forms pushed through, one at a time. Almost breath-takingly huge. Can it really be that pervasive and still continue unpunished?

You're right. This is personal. The democrat machine, which seeks to steal your income, your wealth, your ability discipline your kids, your ability to share your faith, your ability to speak your political mind before an election, your ability to arm yourself as provided by the second amendment, also seeks to steal your Republic by displacing with a fraudulent one. They may as well walk in your front door and empty your wallet. May as well; you can't shoot them.
