This is a company hired by the Republican Party. How in the world can this be accurate? he said. The elections administration has been trying to clean up the voter registration rolls and theyve done a good job of it with the limited technology they have. WIPE the registration rolls after every election. Require re-registration thirty days before any election or vote.
How hard is this?

i can't remember seeing so many cases of voter fraud being exposed before an election ... and against democrats ... the press aren't doing their jobs protecting them You are so right
usually the allegations of vote fraud happen after the election has already been stolen, and the Republicans are then labeled as sour grapesclaimants.

Elections in Texas are controlled by the Secretary of State who is appointed by the (Republican) governor.

Yes, fraud is possible all over South TX. That explains why the Democrats are so self-confident and Ann W. Richards has dreams of the Demos sweeping all statewide offices for the first time in 20 years, when she was the party nominee for state treasurer. Ann won't be on the ballot, but her surrogates will be. It is good that the registration of the dead is being exposed, but I fear nothing will be done to rectify this problem. The Egyptians had the "Book of the Dead." In South TX many counties have a "Book of the Dead" too -- the voter registration roll! Such activities renew the hopes of the Sanchez-Sharp-Kirk forces.

Im disappointed that he would conduct this study without the assistance of the election administration and commission, she said. How can we do anything about it if he doesnt work with us?By "do anything about it" she of course means suppress the evidence and allow the dead to vote in peace.

"vote in peace" ROFL
We need to bug Fox News to follow up on all of these vote fraud scandals.

[The Fix is in , maybe. And this is probably the tip of the iceburg down here.]
Now I always thought it was the famous or infamous Duval County that gave LBJ his start.
My grandmother used to say, "Yes, I knew LBJ when he stole his first election."

Good Morning Fraud Alert Bump!
To: nanny
The amazing thing here...unreported by the national media...is that all these voter fraud allegations are against Democrats.
South Dakota, St. Louis, Milwaukee, Harkin's shenanigans in Indiana, now Texas, and we don't know yet, how many others.
Until the national media connects the voter corruption dots, Democrats will continue to get away with election theft.

The actual Box 13 was in Jim Wells county which is next to Duval county. The actors were the famous Parr family who were the political bosses in Duval county hence the name the "Duke of Duval." There is a great book out there by that name, and those of you that want to get a good history about corrupt politics in South Texas it's a good read.

I would like to read that. My brother was born in Duval Country, my grandparents and many other members of my family are buried in Alice, so I am a little familiar with Duval country. I really wish I could recall all the stories my mother and grandparents used to tell about that county

Well, shenanigans in Texas is nothing new, especially in South Texas. I think with the influx of illegals down there, it will get worse.
Actually, when I was young, after each election there would be a story of irregularities in Duval County. It became a joke.

And it would still be just a joke, no action taken, if not for FOXNews, the internet, and a new conservative media influence in Washington and New York.

You will never see anything like this in New York. Not because vote fraud doesn't happen, but because it's a main staple of the DemonRats here.
Wonder how many dead and 'invisible' people voted in New York? Wonder what such a study would show?

There may be several books out, but the one I like best is
The Rise and Fall of the Duke of Duval, written by William Sessions.
It describes the corruption in Duval County, and how the Duke of Duval stole the election for LBJ by stuffing the ballot box in adjoining Jim Wells County.
The book covers far more than that, though, and it really opens your eyes on county politics in Texas.
County government is actually FAR more powerful than state government in Texas, which has very limited powers. That's why all the busts of city and county officials in this state come from the FBI.

"Until the national media connects the voter corruption dots, Democrats will continue to get away with election theft."Don't forget they had 102% voter turnout in Philadelphia under Ed Randell as mayor. Did the media do anything? Sure, the're getting him elected as our next governor.

"the GOP nees to file charges everywhere they find fraud" May I compliment your gift of understatement?
