The American Center for Voting Rights Legislative Fund (“ACVR Legislative Fund”) is proud to present the following report as the most comprehensive and authoritative review of the facts surrounding allegations of vote fraud, intimidation and suppression made during the 2004 presidential election. Using court records, police reports and news articles, ACVR Legislative Fund presents this “after action report” which documents hundreds of incidents and allegations from around the country, notes whether a factual basis for the charge exists and assesses what actions, if any, were taken by the responsible party, law enforcement or the courts. Most importantly, ACVR Legislative Fund makes eight key recommendations that, if implemented, will secure the American election system so that all voters will have the ability to participate free of intimidation and harassment and no legitimate voter will be disenfranchised by an illegal vote. These recommendations also call for accountability for the political parties and activist groups engaged in the political process by holding them responsible for the actions of their operatives seeking to cast illegal votes or to intimidate or harass voters.
ACVR Legislative Fund found that thousands of Americans were disenfranchised by illegal votes cast on Election Day 2004. For every illegal vote cast and counted on Election Day, a legitimate voter is disenfranchised. This report documents a coordinated effort by members of some organizations to rig the election system through voter registration fraud, the first step in any vote fraud scheme that corrupts the election process by burying local officials in fraudulent and suspicious registration forms.
ACVR Legislative Fund further found that, despite their heated rhetoric, paid Democrat operatives were far more involved in voter intimidation and suppression activities than were their Republican counterparts during the 2004 presidential election.

My computer crashed this spring so I lost all the data I was compiling...RATS!
Excellent!
This report needs to be read by EVERYONE!
Yet, I haven't seen it on ANY of the newspapers and or television news outlets.
Unfortunately, I think the interview jsut ended. Medved's big point was that the MSM is ignoring it...
Good catch and good post. Another strong piece of evidence for the theorem of Democratic projection, that is, anytime liberals accuse conservatives of any wrongdoing, it's because the Dems are the ones actually doing it.
bump for later

The lefty blogs are decrying this as a GOP front group but additional research has contracdicted this claim.

This is a major, nonpartisan report on voter fraud and intimidation during the 2004 election; simply monumental.
If you have the bandwidth, download the PDF version from the website for inclusion in your eLibrary and dissemination to your liberal friends and co-workers. As you hand them the report, feel free to use the classic line, "Read 'em and weep."
Pass the word.
Thanks for the ping.
Yikes.
James, were YOU a part of the vote fraud activity detailed within this NONPARTISAN report?
Very telling. The MSM really should be covering this, but no sense holding my breath.
Well I hope folks will email this to their friends and the usual suspects in the media!!!
