In a conference call with reporters and bloggers, Doug Hoffman campaign spokesman Rob Ryan addressed his concern about the possibility of ACORN interfering in New York's 23rd district.

"A special prosecutor was named at the end of September, because Working Families Party was infvolved in the forgery of absentee ballots, and they caught them red-handed. This is something we are afraid of here in the district. We are afraid of the unions coming in, of ACORN coming in, of Move-on types coming in, and we want to see a clean legal election. We know if that's the case, we win. Our Chief counsel is going to court tomorrow morning in Essex county. The ballots that are being counted...the voting machines could not have them added, so there are paper ballots out there, and we do not want paper ballots being counted at the polling places. We want them counted with the absentee ballots at the board of elections."
Obama Vs. Hoffman (Tea Party/Conservatism/Republican Resurgence)
It loks like Doug is in the drivers seat, so I feel his campaign needs to chill with the finger pointing and scare talk. He can do more harm to himself during the next few hours than anyone else. Take a defensive position and put out the fires quietly.

Remind me what Bush Sr was accused of doing to a Perot wedding?
FReep mail me if you want on/off the list.
I have no idea what you are asking or the point you are trying to make. Sorry.
Show your drivers lic before voting
That's RACIST !! /s
There has to be a way to prevent the Acorn fraud.
Of COURSE they will be pulling their illegal vote tricks.
TURNOUT, TURNOUT, TURNOUT is the only way to defeat these tricks.
Also have poll watchers at EVERY PRECINCT....with video cameras and cell phones.
Am sure volunteers are needed!
Meanwhile, my absentee ballot never arrived (I’m active duty stationed away from my district). I’m sure my provisional ballot was disposed of because a vote was already cast in my name...
What is the Secreaty of State like?
Secretary of State—sorry.
I hope you check that out when you get back. Sorry to hear that. Can you call the elections office, record the call and inform them of that info? Might come in handy later on...
AM not in NY - don’t know..,.,maybe others do.

“my absentee ballot never arrived (Im active duty stationed away from my district)”
Me too, in 2006 Alaska election.
The Secretary of State told me it was sent. Mail handlers probably lost it in South Carolina.
I don’t agree, devane617. The Acorn roaches scurry in the daylight. If he calls attention to their schemes now he diminishes the possibility that they will be able to get away with them in the 23rd.
Rolling up to the 1992 elections, I have vague memories of allegations where it was stated that Perot accused Bush Sr of interfering with his daughter’s wedding, and the air of paranoia began to surround Perot’s campaign.
To your point concerning Hoffman’s ACORN alarm, you’re right.
I think the actual complaint had to do with somebody spreading rumors about her...lesbian alert. Couldn’t imagine who could have been doing that and I’m ‘certain’ that there wasn’t any truth to the rumor.
