The Defiance County Sheriff's Office arrested Chad Staton, age 22, of Stratton Ave., Defiance, on a charge of False Registration, in Violation of Section 3599.11 of the Ohio Revised Code, a felony of the fifth degree.
The SheriffÕs Office alleges that Staton filled out over 100 voter registration forms that were fictitious. Staton was to be paid for each registration form that he could get citizens to fill out. However, Staton himself filled out the registrations and returned them to the woman who hired him from Toledo, Ohio. Deputies allege that Staton was paid crack cocaine for the falsified registrations.
Defiance Deputies along with Toledo Police Department detectives conducted a search warrant of a residence on Woodland in Toledo, believed to be the home of the woman who hired Staton to solicit voter registration. Officers confiscated drug paraphernalia along with voter registration forms from the home. The occupant of the home, Georgianne Pitts, age 41, advised law enforcement, along with Ohio B.C.I.&I., that she had been recruited by Thaddeus J. Jackson, II, of Cleveland, to obtain voter registrations. Pitts admitted to paying Staton crack cocaine for the registrations in lieu of money.
A business card provided by Pitts indicated that Jackson is the Assistant NVF Ohio Director of the NAACP National Voter Fund.
The initial complaint received by the Sheriff's Office came from the Defiance County Board of Elections. The Board had received the 100 plus registration forms from the Cuyahoga Board of Elections that had been submitted to the Cuyahoga Board by the NAACP National Voter Fund.

Trick or Treat!
thats just plain nasty
Just when you thought Democrats could not go any Lower....ohh for the good ol days of Election 2000, when they were only passing out Cigarettes to the homeless.
BUMP
You do realize that Marion Barry just won the Democratic nomination for one of the wards in the District. Which in DC means he won the election - I don't know why they bother to hold anything but a Democratic primary.
I can see it now, the Police will have to have dope sniffing dogs at the voting place.
Wouldn't this constitute racism by the Democrats?

to let him go like Sandy Berger before him, because it is WE
who still have their 950 FBI files.""
Drugs for Votes. This is the only level at which the Democrats have any plan at all for making drugs more available to the people.
"Defiance Deputies along with Toledo Police Department detectives conducted a search warrant of a residence on Woodland in Toledo, believed to be the home of the woman who hired Staton to solicit voter registration."
Advisory to voter registration workers: Toledo Democratic Headquarters has been moved to the crack house one block south of our old headquarters. We regret this inconvenience.
Georgianne Pitts - that name is jumping out at me for some reason.
Toledo - the judge that ruled from the bench.
Dems are going down!!!!
If this is how they are getting new registrants then how can anyone assume they will actually show up to vote?
The 'Rats use absentee ballots for this.
Get a source on this and send it Drudge!!!!!
They did about 3 blocks away from where I am typing this. I don't think it'll happen as easily this year because of beefed-up patrols in the area from Milwaukee Police and Marquette Public Safety due to an off-campus shooting this weekend. I figure with these patrols they'll be around that mission a couple of times and hour at least, so the Dems will have to be a lot sneakier in ahdning out cigs.
They're too hard on the guy.
He needed crack cocaine in order to be able to communicate with the Democrats on their own level.
