Three of seven defendants in the biggest voter-registration fraud scheme in Washington history have pleaded guilty and one has been sentenced, prosecutors said Monday. The defendants were all temporary employees of ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, when they allegedly filled out and submitted more than 1,800 fictitious voter-registration cards during a 2006 registration drive in King and Pierce counties. No votes were cast in the names of the phony voters. Prosecutors said the defendants committed fraud in order to keep their jobs without actually registering voters. King County election workers brought the fraud to the attention of prosecutors last October, after noticing that signatures on many registration forms looked like they had been written by the same person. Ryan Olson, 28, of Needles, Calif., was the first to be sentenced. He pleaded guilty Thursday in King County Superior Court to two counts of providing false information on a voter-registration application, a felony. Court Commissioner Kenneth Comstock sentenced him to 30 days in jail or in electronic home detention, the sentence recommended by prosecutors, said Dan Donohoe, spokesman for the King County Prosecutor's Office. Tina Johnson, 24, of Tacoma, and Jayson Woods, 20, of Elkridge, Md., also have pleaded guilty to eight counts each of registration fraud. Donohoe said prosecutors have recommended 120 days of jail for each of them using the same formula applied to Olson: 15 days for each count. Brianna Debwa, 35, of Tacoma; Robert Greene, 56, of Tacoma; and Clifton Mitchell, 45, of Lakewood, Pierce County, have pleaded not guilty and are scheduled to appear in court in November. Kendra Thill, 19, no known address, was charged with voter fraud and is wanted for failure to appear in court.

Let me guess, “Democrats”, “activists”, “progressives”,
“environmentalists”, etc.? The usual suspects.
So will the governor now recognize she was voted in based on fraud and now resign?
Big deal, did you see how fat Britney looks in that outfit?
( /sarc barely off)
Sure ... we all believe that. /sarc
When there is a penalty stiffer than 30 days of home arrest for election fraud, it will likely stop. People who participate in actions like this defraud honest voters without worry of punishment and are no doubt well compensated for their efforts.
"Allegedly"? They just plead guilty, how is this alleged?
Interesting. Two of them were from Elkridge, MD - just a stone’s throw from DC. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm..................
You took the words right out of my mouth.
“When there is a penalty stiffer than 30 days of home arrest for election fraud,...”

It’s not 30 days, it’s 15 days....for a FELONY!!! From the article;
“He pleaded guilty Thursday in King County Superior Court to two counts of providing false information on a voter-registration application, a felony.”
all lib/dems that are involved in the corruption...
just wait for the lib/dem msm to report of this!!
Gee Wally I didn’t see the word Democrat in that article. Ya ‘sopse they were Republicans?”
“Nah Beav, it was just ratmedia scumbags tryna hide the truth again.”
ReDefeat Bush in '08!
It’s never fraud when a Dummie wins, only when they lose.
So will the governor now recognize she was voted in based on fraud and now resign?Well, this incident won't do the trick. If you read more than the first 2 lines you will see this:
No votes were cast in the names of the phony voters. Prosecutors said the defendants committed fraud in order to keep their jobs without actually registering voters.Acorn was being ripped off. These guys were a boat anchor on their efforts.
There are better and more accurate arguments to be made.
/sarc sincerely off
Not long ago a woman in Washington state who happened to be a Republican, file a fake voter registration for her dog for what she said was making a point about how easy it is to commit fraud.
I was part of the very small minority who believed she should have been prosecuted and served time.
The majority here were OK as long as she didn’t actually vote and commenced passionately defending her.
Now the shoe is on the other foot. My position hasn’t changed, prosecute them.
And she had the Stalinist gall to demand recounts until she won.
I explained why her taking of office was a genuine theft of an election, unlike the Left’s claim that “Bush stole the election,” though it was completely constitutional.
Some ignorant leftist blogger from Seattle lifted my lines from FR and posted them under the caption of “the right whines about blah blah blah.”
Once again, leftists prove themselves to be the stupid, criminal, Stalinist bastards that they are. They can only gain office by lying about who they are and what they’ll do or stealing elections through fraud.
I wonder how far they’ll be able to push us before we crack.
Now, of course, a criminal who votes illegally wouldn’t do something so wrongful as lie about who he voted for, would he?
The judge, a leftist, ruled that because there was no evidence who the questionable votes went to, rather than throw them all out (which would have given the race to Rossi), threw out only a handful, which ensured that the lying, thieving leftist (I know, redundant) would legally steal the election.
