Someone needs to crosscheck the names of the phantom police officers with the names of those who voted for Mary Landrieu in the disputed 1996 Senatorial Runoff Election between Landrieu and Woody Jenkins.
Recall that Jenkins was winning by about 95,000 votes statewide after all but the Orleans Parish voting boxes were in. Orleans Parish did not report its votes until 6:00 AM the next morning, about 8 hours after all of the other Parishes had reported their totals and reported that Landrieu received a net 100,000 votes more than Jenkins giving her a 5,000 vote victory.
Jenkins rightly called foul and set about proving voter fraud. He documented about 7,450 fraudulent votes, 50% more than Landrieu’s 5,000 vote margin.
The Senate caved in when all of the females in the Senate and House marched on the Senate and dared it to not seat Landrieu.
I remember that.
