United States Attorney William McSwain announced on Thursday that Domenick DeMuro, a former Judge of Elections in Philadelphia, has been charged with multiple counts of election-related fraud:
“(1) conspiracy to deprive Philadelphia voters of their civil rights by fraudulently stuffing the ballot boxes for specific Democratic candidates in the 2014, 2015, and 2016 primary elections, and (2) a violation of the Travel Act, which forbids the use of any facility in interstate commerce (here, a cell phone) with the intent to promote certain illegal activity (here, bribery),” per a DOJ release.
U.S. Attorney @USAttyMcSwain says, “Demuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear."

DeMuro conceded that a political consultant, whose name was not revealed, paid him to illegally doctor votes for multiple Democratic candidates. The bribery money would be disguised as "consulting fees":
“DeMuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear. This is utterly reprehensible conduct. The charges announced today do not erase what he did, but they do ensure that he is held to account for those actions,” said U.S. Attorney McSwain. “Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy. If even one vote is fraudulently rung up, the integrity of that election is compromised. I want the public to know that this investigation is active and ongoing, and my Office is taking every possible step that we can to ensure the integrity of the upcoming primary and general elections in the nine counties of the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.”
DeMuro’s indictment eviscerates the narrative, pushed predominantly by Democrats, that voter fraud is non-existent.
Since this was a Democratic primary, it was in favor of some Democrats, and against others. No Republican candidates appear on the ballot.
So what?
Still election fraud.
If he was PAID, then WHO is the DNC operative THAT PAID HIM?
But...but...but...don’t the democrats tell all of us, all the time, that there is NO SUCH THING as Voter Fraud?? Surely they would LIE to us, would they?
Exactly.
President Trump needs to send Federal law enforcement and tough GOP election monitors to every polling station in the swing states and some swing districts in November.
This and that other one are just the ones that were caught...so far.
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
“But there’s no fraud.”
You don’t say. Imagine that, a DemocRat cheating.
It would follow, notwithstanding the specificity of the indictment, that he also committed fraud for Hillary in November 2016. But Trump carried Pennsylvania. Election fraud fails if there’s heavy turnout.
That’s what the Dems didn’t calculate on in 2000. They had all these dead people in the Southeastern counties of Florida, with plenty of illegal aliens and cooperative poll watchers willing to work their magic. But the premature calling of Florida failed to discourage the Panhandlers, and the Elian case p!ssed off the Cubans so much that they came out in droves. So Panhandlers and p!ssed off Cubans narrowly won the day. Get p!ssed off if you aren’t already, and vote.
There’s no evidence...There’s no evidence...
[“DeMuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear.”]
Wow, what a good Democrat he is. Vote early, vote often, vote repeatedly.
Maybe the Russians hacked his voting hand. Darn Russians!!!
Should hack it completely off.
The Russians hacked him, man! It wasn’t his fault!
There was an earthquake! A plague! Locusts!
It wasn’t his fault!
What other races did he commit fraud?
59 precincts In Philly had 0 votes for GOP president in recent election. Fraud?
The democratic primary is the only election that has mattered in Philadelphia for decades.
A capital crime in my opinion.
