COLUMBIA, S.C. -- With a primary election just around the corner, South Carolina’s attorney general is asking for an investigation into possible voter fraud in the state.
On Wednesday, Attorney General Alan Wilson asked State Law Enforcement Division Chief Mark Keel to review evidence of potential voter fraud in the state.
Wilson said the evidence of fraud was uncovered by Director of the Department of Motor Vehicles Kevin Shwedo during an extensive review of data related to the state's new voter identification law.
"Director Shwedo's research has revealed evidence that over 900 deceased people appear to have 'voted' in recent elections in South Carolina," said Wilson. "This is an alarming number, and clearly necessitates an investigation into potential criminal activity. I have asked SLED Chief Keel to review Director Shwedo's research."
In his letter to Chief Keel, Wilson wrote: "No right is more precious than the right to vote and no process is more important in terms of integrity than the election process. Voter fraud cannot be tolerated. Therefore, I respectfully request that SLED conduct a preliminary inquiry into these voting irregularities."
I’m hoping that the AG takes that FACTOID right into the Court Fight over Holder’s People’s dis-enfranchisement with Voter ID.
900 dead people voting in SC. Anyone want to bet on which party they are part of?
And....
I’m sure that’s why the study was done.
We are officially a true banana republic! Your “sacred” vote doesn’t mean jack.
“Dead People” is a key demographic for Democrat politicians over the years. Dead people vote overwhelmingly Democratic. The main issue is turn out.
Only 900 dead voters in all of South Carolina?
Heck, that’s barely a decent precinct here in Chicago!
‘zackly how Missouri got Claire McCackle...
Dead people won’t matter in SC since it’s an open primary where the Democrats can cross over and hand it to Romney...
Of course, the ACLU would go nuts and various federal judges would find that such laws were racist.
Pressitutes would only delve for that information and print it if it were suspected that it was a republican he voted for.
See, you can run the person’s name, charge,and criminal background in the paper, but telling us who he voted for is violating the sacrosanct ethos of journalism.
I’ll bet some of the Johnny Rebs who died in Camp Douglas in the Civil War are still voting Democrat there in Chicago.
We are in the process of a modified version of that in Wisconsin right now. We are all going to have to produce photo ID at the next election. Of course this was supposed to be in effect by 2004 and then 2008 but the Dems kept throwing monkey wrenches into the process.
The dead always vote democrat. It’s only the law in Chicago, but it is enforced nationwide.
900 in today, 90,000 in November.
Why do ya think they’ve installed electronic voting stations with NO paper trails or any other safety?/?
In Michigan the voter ID law went 6 years from passage to implementation due to court challenges. When I voted in a local election in October they ran my ID through a magnetic strip reader.
Wisconsin, New Hampshire, South Carolina...
