Sounds a LOT like South Dakota. Why the heck aren't the Republicans DOING something in SD to stop this kind of thing? I would also think a couple (or more) well-publicized arrests prior to the LA election would "chill" the hubris of the Democrat vote-fraud machine (AND put Johnson's "victory" in doubt!).

Unbelievable. I'm sure the committee that investigated this issue in 1997 was Dem-controlled, just like the one that gave a mere rebuke to Torricelli. Different standard for them than for us. Disgusting.

Vote buying in Louisiana is a common and accepted practice. Claude "Buddy" Leach, an announced candidate for governor in 2003, was caught buying votes in Vernon Parish in the 1980's and is no worse off for it politically. He is married into one of the wealthiest families in the state and can spend millions on the race if needed.
