“Not until our RINO’s get tired or someone with balls shows up to send people to federal prison will we get this under control.”

Agree.

We need laws like this and lot’s of indelible purple ink.

I don¹t think Faye was trying to do anything illegal.

Pretty obvious she was -- claiming a Homestead exemption on two different houses in two different states.

You don’t have to carry ID all the time; you’re supposed to have it while you’re driving. You can get a State ID if your license is suspended, or you don’t drive.

Having a second home in Florida makes her a weak case for the “poor, disenfranchised citizen” sob story they’re using against this law.

Does this snowbird fly to Florida and how des she get on an airplain without ID?

What’s really funny is that in the trial court decision on this the Judge noted that the dems had failed produce a single person who had been or may be harmed by this law. Not a single one. So you know they’ve been looking everywhere to find an example. The only one they are able find turns out to be a fraudster. And some people think there is no God.

OOPS.

Now the sweet little lady who was quite likely committing tax fraud might be wishing she kept her little mouth shut.

Oh, the irony.

"Hopefully FL will arrest her for fraud or at the very least end her homestead exemption and fine her."

She should also have to pay the difference in taxes and penalties.

She has a Florida Drivers License. That was what she tried to use as ID when she wanted to vote in Indiana.

I personally hope they throw her in jail. Make an example of her for ALL the other snowbirds who do the same thing from NY, OH, PA, etc.

Contacted on her way to Washington for the hearing, Joanne Evers, president of the ILWV said she had no idea that Ewing – who is listed first in the ILWV’s Supreme Court brief – had dual voter registrations.

Even so, she said, it doesn’t diminish the opposition¹s case.

Yes it does!!! It is AMAZING how so many poster children of the left are exposed as fraudulent.

“I don¹t think Faye was trying to do anything illegal. The fact that she did not vote in Florida leads me to believe she did not intend anything criminal. I was at the poll when she was unable to vote and saw what she had to go through to get an Indiana ID card. I think (all of this) is part of the confusion. I hope the law is not to befuddle people trying to do the right thing.”

Well it should!!! She signed an affidavit, SWEARING she wasn't registered in any other state. That is a deliberate, illegal act. And to say that all this is part of the "confusion"? Snort. You're the one obfuscating, ILWV lady.

“(Ewing) is an example of how difficult it was to get an ID, period,” Evers said. “This law was intended to catch someone who is impersonating someone else and votes twice, not to catch someone who is perhaps trying to understand the bureaucracy of two states.

She got an Indiana drivers license in a few hours in spite of the fact that she claims Florida as her state of residency. And she still could have bypassed this by voting with the absentee ballot sent to her.

Sounds to me like she was planning on voting for President in two states.

She obviously committed fraud in Florida in order to backup her claim for homestead exemption there.

Put the biddie in the stripy hole!

She also has Florida plates but uses her Indiana address as her mailing address for her Florida voter registration. She is also trying to bypass Indiana’s higher plate fees too. Anyone from Indiana knows what I am talking about. They have gone down lately, but when I bought a 1 year old Blazer a few years back, my plate fees the first year were $460.00. So, lets tally up her score...

1. Homestead exemption on two houses in different states.
2. Registered to vote in two states (Indiana and Florida)
3. Voted in Indiana AFTER she registered in Florida.
4. Uses a Indiana address on her Florida voter registration.
5. Has Florida plates on a car when she should have Indiana plates.
and finally...
6. SHE claims to be the victim!

You mean she’s braking the rules to suit her needs and when found out, she CLAIMS that SHE is the victim.

In other words, your typical Clinton supporter.

Exactly. It seems to me that...

The fact that it was a card that would have allowed her to vote was peripheral---and thus why she didn't recall it. She was just focusing on committing her fraud and this was a way she saw she could do it.

"I (Joanne Evers, president of the ILWV) was at the poll when she was unable to vote and saw what she had to go through to get an Indiana ID card.”

So, the President of the Indiana League of Women Voters just happened to be there, then followed the "victim" through the process of getting an ID.

BS. She hand picked this "poster girl" victim and either the old hag never told her the whole story, or she didn't think anyone would have the stones to investigate her.

OOOOOOPPPPS....... She is going to lose her HOMESTEAD status in one state or the other, and I believe they can make her pay back any property tax advantages attached to same.

From the story:

She claimed a homestead exemption on the Florida property in 2003 – the same time she was claiming a homestead exemption on property she owned in Indiana, according to Tippecanoe deputy auditor Heather Satler. Satler said that Ewing’s Indiana exemption began in 1994 and ended in 2004, when the exemption was removed because the state discovered she wasn¹t living there. [Gond: but note, it doesn't mention any penalties]

Tuesday Ewing said the homestead “problem came up” when she married in 2002. “But that was taken care of,” she said. [Gond: I think “taken care of” translates to something involving “committing fraud to falsely claim residency”...note that she made this claim even after 2002, until caught in 2004] She also said her main residence is in Indiana, and that she pays “some” taxes in Indiana on a “small annuity” she receives.
Passive voice...sounds like she's either a scientist, bureaucrat, politician, or crook.
