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 don’t know, but we should at least be using this ACORN controversy to require our states to have this law.

Maybe we could require people to use their race card to vote. At this point I would like to see an id card with little numbered marks around the edge that you would get hole punched when you vote.

“Who are we? ACORN! What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now!”

I would like justice for that ignorant ‘Project Mouth’ now, too.

"Drew Griffin, investigative reporter for CNN..."


He did a great piece on CNN a few days ago.
Anderson Cooper, David Rodham Gergan, et al looked absolutely dismayed. lol

I have a funny feeling this entire election is going contested because of ACORN. Contesting votes because of Acorn means delayed election results- which gives the riot mobs their opening.

I hope they weed out all of the bad ballots before the election.
If not, then I believe you are right.

However, I think the only way we will avoid riots is if Obama wins outright.
A close McCain win, and his supporters will unleash hell.

I’m leaving the country on election day.
Seriesly...;o)

I have an uneasy feeling that what’s going on in our economy was deliberate and planned..

Oh but it was.

I pray that all of this will be revealed BEFORE Election Day and that people will really SEE what’s going on.

I’m still surprised Obama made it through the primaries against Hillary. Guess he never went to Arkansas.

Thanks for that link, very interesting read. There was a comment made toward the end of Nightline last night, to the effect that even when this crisis is over the longterm aftermath will be that we all will have to learn to live with less. Sounds like they are preparing us for Socialism. Everyone is “entitled” to healthcare and a home? At our expense...This crisis is looking more and more like a war between socialists and capitalists and the media is preparing us for the socialistic result of an Obama presidency. If Illinois is any indicator, you will get laughable health coverage like the Illinois First program, and some of the highest taxes (like 10.25% sales tax in Chicago).

They've been prepping us for outright Socialism for years.

And they're so close to getting what they want they're making some mistakes IMO. Witness the ACORN thugs dumping literally tens of thousands of fraudulent voter registrations in battle ground states.

I also think people are making an grave error when they worry about people actually showing up at the polls to vote under those phony names. That's not the plan.

Those 'votes' will be 'cast' after the polls have closed and the Dems have a good idea how many votes they need to catch up and overtake the voting in the Republican parts of the State in question.

Where witnessing the wind up to the largest case of election fraud in American history. And if they get away with it it'll be a hundred years before there's another honest election, if ever.

Since you live in Chicago, you might want to consider becoming a Republican Poll Watcher.

Yes, that’s how its done in Chicago. The votes are cast either before the polls even open or they can be manipulated afterward for the desired effect. I don’t live in the city, but in a suburb that has been overrun by the Dems in just the past few elections. They send out swarms of door-to-door campaigners (city workers) giving the illusion of strength in the area. Unfortunately enough people fell for it. I’ve worked in my area as a pollwatcher...you gotta do what little you can.

You do realize this is illegal if they're on City time.

The next time it happens, smile, get the persons name, ask a few innocent questions, and then document everything.

Drop a call into the local FBI office with all the details you've collected.

If you're in one of the collar counties, a call to the States Attorney isn't a bad idea, either.

It wasn’t done necessarily on work time. It was alot on weekends. They have a vested interest in the Party so they go where they are told. A relative asked to see a drivers license from one that came to her door—they scurried off without producing one...
