Immigrant-rights activist Nativo Lopez jailed (eight felony counts alleging voter fraud)
OC Register ^ | 7/2/10 | Martin Wisckol

Immigrant-rights activist and former Santa Ana schools trustee Nativo Lopez was jailed in Los Angeles Thursday after being indicted by the grand jury there for eight felony counts alleging voter fraud.

Los Angeles arrest records show that he was booked into the Twin Towers Correctional Facility, and is being held in lieu of $55,000 bail. Los Angeles District Attorney spokeswoman Sandi Gibbons said he faces a mental competency hearing on Aug. 6.

The Mexican American Political Association, of which he is president, responded with a press release today.

“Let it be known that he will be fasting in stance with his pursuit to life, liberty, and happiness our unalienable rights (sic),” reads the MAPA release.

The arrest and indictment are but the latest chapter in a 2-year-old saga related to him changing his voting address from his Santa Ana home to the Boyle Heights office of Hermandad Mexicana Latinoamericana, another group he leads.

In June of 2009, he was charged by Los Angeles District Attorney Steve Cooley with four felony counts, alleging that Lopez’s primary residence continued to be in Santa Ana and so he had illegally registered to vote – and illegally voted – in Los Angeles.

Gibbons said she could not explain why the superseding grand jury indictment was filed.

Remember the story of Mrs. Murphy’s cow kicking over the lantern and burning down Chicago? Charging Nativo Lopez on one count of voter fraud involving himself, would be like charging Mrs. Murphy for the broken lantern.

This guy has been at the center of so much voter fraud there is no one place to start. He and his group stole Bob Dornan’s congressional seat for starters, and Lord knows what else since then.

G-d has blessed America more than any nation on earth, throughout history. It is time for us to accept that blessing and do something with it.
