YES! I hope they can hve all of the ACORN registrations throw out. Every one of them in Ohio should be thrown out no question asked. I was listeneing to the testimony before the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections and it was awful. People beign registered 70+ times etc. Nulify every one of them!

Obama says he doesn’t know NUTTIN’ about no acorns. The media will keep repeating it until it is accepted as fact by the public.

I just went to the linked site. Looks like some back peddling is going on now.

RICO?

Excellent!

[library user]

UPDATE. Looks like it may not happen:

RICO ACTION TO BE FILED AGAINST ACORN TOMORROW MORNING
NOTE MAJOR WALK-BACK OF ORIGINAL STORY

Major, Tentative Walk-Back: The "US Attorney" part has been deleted from the headline. Not bait and switch; just can't stand by that at the moment.

Damnit. In all likelihood this is not as great as first reported. So yes, I am aware that this is very disappointing. I am disappointed too. I didn't mislead or make a mistake; that was the information I had.

I also can't say for sure the old headline is wrong, but it strongly appears that way at the moment.

I'm really sorry. I can only say again "This is the information I had." Cowbell and flaming skull canceled.

Is that 24 hours, or 24 business hours?

Here is my idea to combat voter fraud. When a voter registers for the first time they MUST do so in person, no one else can do it for you. You submit your SS number, picture ID,fingerprints etc. They then issue you, after verification of your ID, a plastic card much like a debit card. It would have a Pin that only you know. When you vote you swipe it in a card reader and you are handed your ballot if your id is verified. Absentee ballots only to be given to Military personnel and people living overseas, plus those that are really going to be absent from their precinct on the day of the election. If a state has early voting the voters must still use their voter ID card to verify their ID.

No motor voter, no same day registration and voting, absentee(except military and people actually living out of country)must swear, under penalty of law, that they are really going to be out of their precinct on election day.

Turn out the lights on ACORN. I bet Obama’s prints are all over the fraud. He knows he has to win Ohio and will tell ACORN to do whatever it takes to get him Ohio.

From AoS:

Final Word on "RICO" Suit? BUMP & UPDATE

I hope. To be posting later on AP. (I hope.) I'd've waited for it to post but I gotta knock off soon. I'll roll the dice that this is accurate.

Not a RICO suit -- a similar but not equivalent suit under Ohio's Corrupt Activity Act, seeking dissolution of ACORN. Figure it has to be ACORN Ohio only.

To be filed Tuesday morning in in the Court of Common Pleas, Warren
County, Ohio

A suit on behalf of citizens asking for, among other things, the
dissolution of ACORN.

For violation of the Ohio Corrupt Activity Act

The suit lists 19 predicate acts in Ohio and 40 out-of-state predicate
acts.

The suit demands a trial by jury.

Hardly the blockbuster I promised, I know. And the "RICO" thing was wrong as well.

Bear in mind this is a private, third-party suit, probably brought by a conservative organization, or just a few citizens. Not really the imprimatur of the DoJ here.

Not saying it couldn't lead to something. But there's not going to be any big splash about it.

Bump [Gabe]: The complaint, filed by the Buckeye Institute (a think tank), is available here (PDF). If nothing else, it is a useful catalogue of ACORN's most recent misdeeds.

I don't know enough about Ohio's Corrupt Activity Act to say whether they've got a good case, but this gives me pause: Under the Ohio Corrupt Activity Act, the core violations being alleged are forgery, uttering forged documents, tampering with writings and records, and uttering tampered writings or records. I'd have to check the statutes and find the definitions, but Acorn's practice of obtaining multiple registrations from individuals does not, at first blush, appear to be any of these things.

Obtaining voter registrations for Mickey Mouse might fall into one of those categories, but that type of activity isn't listed in the complaint. They seem to focus on the multiple fraudulent registrations instead.

Somebody shoot me some knowledge. Does that sound like forgery or tampering with writings and records to you?
