According to a press release sent out by the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, nine individuals have been charged "with a dozen felony counts for allegedly offering money and cigarettes to homeless people on Skid Row in exchange for false and forged signatures on ballot petitions and voter registration forms." 

"The defendants are accused of engaging in the solicitation of hundreds of false and/or forged signatures on state ballot petitions and voter registration forms by allegedly offering homeless people $1 and/or cigarettes for their participation, prosecutors said. The alleged offenses occurred during the 2016 and 2018 election cycles," the release notes.

"The charges include circulating a petition with false names; use of false names on a petition; voter fraud, registering a fictitious person; and voter fraud, registering a nonexistent person," the LA District Attorney's office said on November 20th.

As noted by KTLA 5, "Kirkland Kauzava Washington, 38, Harold Bennett, 53, and Louis Thomas Wise, 36, each face eight counts and six years and four months in prison if convicted."

Likewise, "Richard Howard, 62, Rose Makeda Sweeney, 42, Christopher Joseph Williams, 66, Jakara Fati Mardis, 35, Norman Hall, 61, and Nickey Demelvin Huntley, 44, each face four counts and four years and eight months in prison if charged."

While amazed that the Republican Congress didn’t fullly fund the wall (with small exceptions), that they didn’t pass a Federal Voter I.D law. Sheesh, both should have been a done deal. Now the lame-duck House wants to question people? Any wonder why we lost the House?

Nine broke down ex-hippies are the reason for the vote fraud. These geniuses are the backbone of corruption throughout USA and actually throughout the nations of the earth. Yup, USAs law enforcement have saved us from tyranny. I can sleep well tonight knowing that law and order has been fully restored to the galaxy.

I am sound asleep. I am USA.

What possible election were they trying to influence in that part of Los Angeles? It’s all Democrats and leftists in those parts.

“Well, voter fraud could result in electing someone whose legislative agenda might result in legislation and regulations which could result in millions or billions or even trillions being spent on programs which would otherwise have not been implement or acted upon.”

The crash of 2009 was entirely owned by the likes of Chris Dodd, Barney Frank and Barack Obama and others. That represented the largest theft of wealth in history.

Amateurs. Do it the old Hudson County, NJ way. Get a flashlight and a clipboard and go to any cemetery. Sheesh! Don’t cost a cent.

Conservatives need to begin wearing tiny hidden spy cameras inside voting booths to catch Dems in the act.

Our elections are pure fraud that our sick Judges ignore.

No big surprise. Here’s an article by an anonymous L.A. poll worker describing how the system has been tailor-made to encourage vote fraud:

The way to stop voter fraud is to toss out the election results and strike the candidate(s) who benefited from the fraud. The way to stop people voting multiple times is purple ink.
