ACORN Submits 2,000 to 5,000 Fake Registration Forms in Indiana?

ACORN Submits 2,000 to 5,000 Fake Registration Forms in Indiana?

ACORN Watch:

More than 2,000 voter registration forms filed in northern Indiana's Lake County by a liberal activist group this week have turned out to be bogus, election officials said Thursday.

The group — the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN — already faces allegations of filing fraudulent voter registrations in Nevada and faces investigations in other states.

And in Lake County, home to the long-depressed steel town of Gary, the bipartisan Elections Board has stopped processing a stack of about 5,000 applications delivered just before the October 6 registration deadline after the first 2,100 turned out to be phony.

"All the signatures looked exactly the same," Ruthann Hoagland, a Republican on the board. "Everything on the card filled out looks exactly the same."

Drew Griffin, investigative reporter for CNN, is en fuego lately, having already turned in one of the best, fairest, and most detailed profiles of Barack Obama's relationship with William Ayers a few days ago.

I think Drew Griffin may need to hire security to prevent an Obamacide.

You’d think these perps would know enough not to let the same person sign each one. Cheez.

Kind of late in the game to be fixing these things, sounds like a Katrina Levee about ready to break, and a NEW ORLEANS flooded, in the election returns.

This is getting so big that soon Drew will have some company because the rest of the MSM will have to report on it.

Any registrar anywhere in the country that receives registration form needs to set them aside for scrutiny.

That number only represents what they have been able to uncover. They should start by cross-checking all of the death records for the last 50-60 years.

ACORN - VEGAS

Bonnie Smith-Greathouse, right, the head organizer for Nevada’s Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now, chants with staff members and volunteers outside their offices in Las Vegas on Tuesday. The Nevada Secretary of State’s office has accused the organization of voter fraud and seized documents from the office. They chanted, “Who are we? ACORN! What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now!”

They are black members of ACORN, registraring duplicate (black) racist voters.

They are democrats.

They have democrat (racist, opportunistic, immoral) politicians as Sec of State, Governors, and in the local Attorney Generals offices of the states.

They KNOW the MSM is going to ignore the issue - as they have the previous 8 years.

Bookmarked. Again.

She’s desperate for an Obama win because then she’ll get some free dental coverage and new teeth.

Can you imagine if Republicans did this? It would be 24/7 on all MSM outlets. Acorn was exposed for their voter fraud in the 2004 election and not much was done.. Maybe the jig is finally up.

ABC Chicago news briefly reported on this last night and again on their midday news. They made a point of saying it was a story that they had been reporting on-—like they’re leading the charge to expose voter fraud. LOL! Then they go on in their reports to interview people from Acorn or Democrats talking about how these charges are just Republicans trying to disenfranchise their voters. Hey—we are not morons out here—at least some of us! We know what the Chicago Dems have been doing for years and they are just bringing it National.

That sounds like an awfully low ball estimate of ACORNs DemoCriminality to me.

The most unnerving aspect of this is how while brazenly engaging in election fraud, they can get away with shrill accusations of the GOP stealing elections.

ACORN - VEGAS

State authorities on Tuesday raided an organization that registers low-income people to vote, alleging that its canvassers falsified forms with bogus names, fake addresses or famous personalities.

The secretary of state's office launched an investigation after noticing that names did not match addresses and that most members of the Dallas Cowboys appeared to be registering in Nevada to vote in November's general election.

"Some of these (forms) were facially fraudulent; we basically had the starting lineup for the Dallas Cowboys," Secretary of State Ross Miller said. "Tony Romo is not registered to vote in Nevada. Anyone trying to pose as Terrell Owens won't be able to cast a ballot."

Agents with the secretary of state and state attorney general offices served a search warrant on the headquarters of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, at 953 E. Sahara Ave. shortly after 9 a.m. They seized voter registration forms and computer databases to determine how many fake forms were submitted and identify employees who were responsible.

They also sought information regarding current and past employees and managers.

"We don't know how many (falsified forms) are here; there may be two, or there may be thousands," said Bob Walsh, spokesman for the secretary of state's office.
