Democratic Vote Fraud in Wisconsin Gov. Race
NBC Milwaukee Affiliate-WTMJ TV

WTMJ-TV, the NBC affiliate in Milwaukee tonight aired an undercover investigation at a group home for mentally disabled patients in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where campaign workers for Jim Doyle, democratic candidate for governor were handing out small amounts of money and free food to the residents. They then were herded upstairs into a separate room and given absentee ballots to cast their vote for governor. Local reporter, Scott Friedman captured this on camera and broadcast it in an exclusive report tonight on Milwaukee news. The Doyle campaign is not commenting.
Jay Heck, leader of Wisconsin political watchdog group, Common Cause, was stunned at the series of events when he viewed the undercover investigation. Memories of Al Gore campaign workers handing out cigarettes to homeless in Milwaukee, and then taking them to the polls in 2000 immediately came to mind.

Amen. Of course, to a party where
murdering pre-born babies is an article of faith, what's the
theft of a few elections?
There IS a consistency to their immorality.

As you say."...sadly not surprising."
These people are arrogant, blatant and "in your face"! They care not about the rules except how to use them to mess with non-liberals. Rules are for others to follow - they proved to the nation in the last presidential election what they are all about with respect to voting.
Let's see, to make a hanging chad, how many voting forms do I have to try to punch at once? What democrat was it that was caught with two voting machines illegally placed in the trunk of his car? How many republicans in how many places showed up and the one voting machine they had for republicans was broken so they didn't get to vote? The stories of democratic fraud and deceit go on and on, yet nobody's in jail!
Where's the outrage?
Thanks for the post - the more documented examples made public, the more people will start to see the facts, and MAYBE the outrage will revive....

I'm thinkin someone is going to jail. This ain't gonna fly this time, for anyone. The DOJ, FBI, are going to be involved. Well, call it wishing. That's all it is. Some lowly poll worker may get hit with a fine, but no one is going to jail.
These people protect their own. Doesn't matter if their Dems or Repubs.

Firmly agree with you... these creeps are simply despicable! Keep us posted if they show up at your mother's facility.
This report has me so upset that I can hardly type. Not only do I live in Kenosha, but I am the mother of an 11-yr-old severely cognitively disabled daughter who functions at an approximately 2-yr-old level. She will never be able to live on her own or make decisions for herself, let alone vote, for heaven's sake. I can hardly fathom the moral bankruptcy of someone who would take advantage of people like her, not to mention those who would look the other way while this lowest kind of fraud is committed. It makes me sick!
We unfortunately missed the televised segment last night, courtesy of the guy who wrapped his car around a utility pole a couple blocks away and knocked our power out for the duration of the newscast. As a result, nearly 1000 Kenosha households missed this very important story.
So far this story has not made the Kenosha News, and it will be interesting to see if it will. I am emailing them the story along with my hopes that it will be prominently covered in tomorrow morning's paper.
I am indeed grateful for FreeRepublic and you great folks, otherwise I would be completely oblivious to this situation going on in my own backyard. Incidentally, this is my very first post on FR after lurking here for 2 years (waited a year before signing up) - so please, nobody yell at me! :-)

Make that 5. Drudge is forgetting about South Dakota. I'll wager that the RATs are in it up to their cueball crowns in all 5.

These people protect their own. Doesn't matter if their Dems or Repubs.Especially when the candidate is the state attorney general, and he has his little brownnose, lackey, pi$$boy district attorneys stationed all over the state. Can't let the law get in the way of an agenda.
To: PacesPaines
How convenient. </tin_foil_hat> Seriously, I doubt that the Kenosha Blues will ever carry it, unless it is to trumpet the "clearing" of Doyle in the whitewash that the DA/endorser/member of Doyle's steering committee will give it.
To: brewcrew
Oh, not only did the Kenosha County DA endorse Doyle early, he is part of the Doyle campaign's steering committee. If this doesn't stink worse than Lake Michigan after a very rainy day with an east wind blowing, I don't know what does.

puke. retch. ugh. excuse me. i have to go kill myself.Please don't! Then you WILL be voting Dem for sure!!

Damn Rats.

Democratic operatives are at it AGAIN! Again? How about constantly.

"This needs to be sent to Fox News, Rush, et.al, ASAP."
Neal Boortz covered this on Wednesday's program. Rush is going into his third hour and I haven't heard him mention it (unless he covered it when I checked the mail and went to the store)...

I emailed the story to Britt Hume, so we'll see what happens!!

Too bad I don't have a Boortz affiliate close to me.
Can you say "ceiling"?
To: DaBroasta
Wasn't this state the 'smoke for RAT votes' headquarters during the 2000 election? And isn't this the state were the little college scamps were claiming to have been multiple ballots and allowed to vote dozens of times each.Sad, but true! Equally sad, the AG refused to do a thing about it -- passing the buck to the local DAs who said they had no funds to make an investigation. The corrupt AG is now running for Governor (and is the current favorite, according to the polls). The stench of coruption hangs over this AG -- but nobody seems to care.
The only reason the party organizer from New Jersey was convicted of anything on the "smokes for votes" scandal is because the TV station FILMED the activity and showed it on the news. The organizer was convicted of just those abuses and paid a small fine. Nobody else was charged, and the investigation was dropped. The whole thing stinks.
To: steveegg
... unless Vince Biskupic (freshly-minted US Attorney Steve Biskupic's brother) becomes AG on November 5 Oh, please, please, Dear God, let Vince win. Not only is he honest and smart, he's easy on the eyes and ears, as well. And he has the cutest daughter (fresh and wholesome) who sings like an angel.

If what I saw today was correct- via (Mc Auliffe's)non-verbal body communication - the Democrats are in big doo-doo. Bigger than most of us are aware of.In 1994 Peter Jennings called the Repub takeover of the House a "voter temper tantrum". I am praying for the "Mother of All Hissy Fits" this year. It will have to be just to keep us in the game.

To: SteveAustin
write a letter to your editor noting all the voter fraud from the party and all the other states involved...some folks just do not pay attention...help bring it to their minds before Tuesday...we can make a difference...bring it up to all the folks that you talk to on the phones...we need strong leadership...in this country..
