Hell, I was there! In 1996 I was working in Rep. Bob Dornan's district during the election. We found aliens with felonies being hustled through citizenship classes. Newly minted citizens told me that they attended classes where the instructors handed out answers along with the tests. Then Hermandad Mexicano Nacional (The Mexican National Brotherhood),a marxist organization, went door-to-door registering new citizens to vote. Later, they came back with absentee ballots and helped the new citizens fill them out. You wanna hear the best part? YOU, THE TAXPAYER PAID FOR IT! Hermandad was on a federal contract let by the Reagan Administration (what the hell were they thinking?) to "educate" prospective citizens. They used the money to help Loretta Sanchez beat Bob Dornan. This cheating was on top of the use of phantom voters, dead people, and other dirty tricks. I got deja vu all over again.
And the GOP let Bob twist in the win. Shame on them. They should have pursued that election to the death.
i'm disappointed this thread hasn't got more traffic.
