Who's up for a fresh addition to the ever-expanding "voter fraud is a Republican myth" file? Democratic officials and campaign operatives have been caught on tape encouraging illegal voting on several occasions in recent election cycles, and anti-voter ID activists have literally cheered a swing-state poll worker who was convicted of the practice. Our latest installment comes to us from the Bayou State and features a Democratic mayor and former State Senator, who dispensed some pro tips on voting at a rally in advance of Saturday's run-off election:
Video of Opelousas, Louisiana Mayor Don Cravins Sr.'s Nov. 3 remarks show him telling a crowd in his home town that 'if you early voted, go vote again tomorrow. One more time’s not going to hurt.' Louisianans, like Americans in many states, had the option of either voting 'early' or showing up on Election Day. Taking advantage of both options would be a crime. And for voters worried about criminal fraud charges, Cravins said he had an insurance policy – the re-election of a Democratic district attorney...'Tomorrow we’re gonna elect Earl Taylor as the D.A. so he won’t prosecute you if you vote twice,' Cravins said. Taylor won a fourth term on Nov. 4...Cravins' remarks were met first by laughs and then by wild cheers. Mary Landrieu's campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
The run-off election between Obama rubber stamp Mary Landrieu and Republican doctor Bill Cassidy is this Saturday, December 6th. Only vote once, Louisianans.
SERIALIZED BALLOTS assigned to only people who apply just like getting a driver’s license.
A voter in Louisiana has to have a picture form of ID with address on it to show he/she is that voter. Requirements for voting are on the Louisiana Secretary of State’s website:

The state now has a Republican governor so every voting precinct who voted in the majority for that candidate, must have a Republican judge. Louisiana is in the best shape now for fairer elections since they have a Republican governor. I have lived in Texas all my life and am familiar with historical Louisiana politics. Bobby Jindal is the best thing that could happen to Louisiana. :o)
Not funny.
Election rigging has been at the heart of the democratic party’s success since at least 1865. Probably before that technically. Look at all the crap they pulled immediately after the civil war with the KKK and the lynchings and the Jim Crow laws right up until around 1965 when they had to take off their robes and find a smarter way to rig elections, steal votes, and intimidate blacks into voting for them. I had a big talk with my liberal family about all of this over the holidays. They were clearly not enjoying the conversation. When we started talking about the mid term election results and what that meant for the Democratic social agenda, they were positively perturbed. LOL. Been waiting a long time for that thanksgiving dinner.
Well when they managed to hijack the kindly intentions of the GOP to implement a kind of bipartisan bribery, they hit the unholy grail.

” Bobby Jindal is the best thing that could happen to Louisiana”
Walker:Wisconsin - ditto.
No keener grasp of the obvious exists.
An elected official encourages lawbreaking...is that legal?
No keener grasp of the obvious exists.
Then, if it is not a joke and therefore not funny, where is law enforcement? Isn't this equal to suborning perjury? Subornation of perjury is the crime of persuading a person to commit perjury. When a person votes, aren't they affirming they have not yet voted?
Is there no legal liability to the elected official doing this? Are we not getting to be a lawless society, where laws only apply to certain people?
DC political operatives look like Crime, Inc., to this observer.
