Stopping Voter Fraud Made a BIG Difference!
Voters Chose a Change of Climate in Washington

This article was written on Monday before the election. I predicted, based on actions by Attorney General Ashcroft to stop voter fraud that has been rampant in the elections since passage of the Motor Voter Bill by a Democrat Congress and signed by Bill Clinton in 1993, that "not only will the Republicans keep the House of Representatives but also will pick up a couple of Senate seats. That will enable George W. Bush to get his judges approved and his policies supported in the Senate."

The November 5, 2002 midterm elections are over and, by the time this is read, most of the counting will be finished. In the last hours of the campaign in the Monday morning debate in Minnesota between former Democrat Vice-President Walter Mondale and Republican challenger Norman Coleman may very well go down in history as the bellwether event that mostly clearly illustrated the real issues of the 2002 elections.
Would voters continue to be swayed by Democrat class warfare arguments that had brought them victory for most of the 20th century or would voters opt for "changing the climate" in Washington to finding ways for Democrats and Republicans to work together to find solutions to national problems? In the debate between the Senate seat left vacant by the death of liberal Democrat Paul Wellstone, 74-year-old Mondale was a nearly perfect example of the class warfare school of thought in American politics and Coleman was a nearly perfect spokesperson for the George W. Bush notion of being a "uniter, not a divider."
Did the American people accept Bush’s vision for the future or did it keep the class warfare vision of their fathers and grandfathers in the 2002 election? On Saturday, November 2, (President Bush dealt with the issue in his radio address.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2002/11/20021103-2.html) He said,
"Since coming into office, I have sent to the Senate 32 nominees for the federal courts of appeals. These nominees are men and women with experience, intelligence, character and bipartisan home-state support. They represent the mainstream of American law and American values. Yet the Senate has confirmed only 14 of these 32 nominees. As of this week, 15 of my appeals court nominees will have been forced to wait over a year for a hearing, which is more than under the previous nine Presidents combined."
If the voters selected Democrats in the Senate, they voted to continue the judicial gridlock. If the voters selected Republicans in the Senate, they voted to allow Bush to choose judges. The 2002 election also quite possibly marked a new beginning in an effort to try to put an end to the voter fraud that had become so blatant and widespread by the year 2000 that it nearly affected the choice of President. The Atlanta-Journal reported following the 2000 election that while the dead in Georgia have "voted for years," their numbers were increasing rapidly. An estimated 15,000 dead people were on active voting rolls statewide in Georgia in 2000. The Journal tracked the votes cast by Democrat Alan Jay Mandel, "always a patriotic man" who had voted in every election after he had died in January 1997.
After something like five or six selective "recounts" in the Florida votes in 2000, the final "official" vote showed that the President had only a few hundred more votes than Al Gore. However, it was later proved that more than two thousand dead people, along with numerous illegal aliens and felons had voted in heavily Democrat precincts in Florida. However, those illegal votes were never subtracted from the "official" vote tallies.
The 1993 federal Motor Voter Law, passed by a Democrat controlled Congress and signed into law in May 1993, "vastly expanded the opportunities for ballot fraud" according to the National Center for Policy Analysis. (NCPA) The Motor Voter law made it easier for illegal aliens to register to vote and changed the way voting rolls are purged. Prior to the law being passed, county registrars automatically purged the rolls of people who hadn't voted for three years. Because Democrats complained that the automatic purges "might be diluting black voting strength", automatic purges were banned under the Motor Voter Law. Today’s voter rolls are loaded with dead people, voters who have moved elsewhere, illegal aliens and felons.
Of approximately eight million people had registered that way by December 2001 only about five percent of them usually bother to vote -- leaving a considerable pool of names available to those bent on election mischief. And, since most states don't require photo IDs at polling booths it is easy to vote in someone else's name, either in person or by absentee ballot.
In 1996, prior to the Clinton-Dole election, Clinton allowed thousands of illegal aliens, many of whom had criminal records, to become citizens and vote in the election. Hundreds of illegal aliens were recruited by Hermandad Mixicana Nacial to vote in the congressional race between Rep. Bob Dornan and challenger Loretta Sanchez in Southern California in 1996. Sanchez won the seat.
During 2002 Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Terry McAuliffe has run a systematic campaign to head off efforts to stop voter fraud by claiming such efforts were a "coordinated strategy to intimidate voters and suppress the vote." Requiring identification from people registering to vote, especially if they belong to a "minority" is considered "harassment" by McAuliffe.
This year every elected state and federal office in the state of South Dakota, except one senate seat, was voted on and South Dakota’s Democrats launched a massive voter registration drive in the State’s nine Indian reservations. However, two weeks before the election, the State Attorney General Mark Barnett said a federal probe by the FBI "uncovered the likely registration of dead people, people not old enough to vote and people who appear not to exist."
Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle claimed the voter fraud investigation was "a concerted Republican effort to make allegations and launch initiatives intended to suppress Native American voting," On October 31st the Washington Times reported, - "Voter fraud has been reported this year in Arkansas, South Dakota, California, Louisiana, Nevada, Kentucky, Iowa, Arizona, Rhode Island, New York and Minnesota in federal and local elections."
State and federal officials are investigating suspected voter fraud in 25 South Dakota counties. One Democratic operative is linked to 1,750 applications for absentee ballots. Christine Iverson, spokeswoman for Republican Rep. John Thune who challenged Democrat Senator Tim Johnson quipped, "A dead woman signed up twice to vote in two different counties - very active this woman!" Attorney General Ashcroft announced Monday that he was sending "324 federal observers and 108 Justice Department personnel to 26 counties in 14 states" to monitor the general election.
Also, Ashcroft sent 70 Justice Department Civil Rights Division attorneys to monitor the election in: San Francisco, California; Waterbury, Connecticut; Broward, Duval, Miami-Dade, Orange and Osceola Counties, Florida; St. Louis, Missouri; San Juan County, New Mexico; Queens County, New York; and, Reading, Pennsylvania.
So, if voter fraud is kept under control, at this point I’m predicting that not only will the Republicans keep the House of Representatives but also will pick up a couple of Senate seats. That will enable George W. Bush to get his judges approved and his policies supported in the Senate.

How some elections are stolen!
Our job is to see that this kind of stuff does not go on in our precinct! The only way to spot it and stop it is to study it!
---Jerry Fennell
Some elections are stolen, manipulated with or have the outcome illegally interfered with not only inside the polls on Election Day, but outside the polls on Election Day. Some elections are determined outside the polls far before Election Day. If one can control any part or all of the election process (whom registers to vote, whom votes, for which candidate they vote, or the count) how can you lose?
Only a few votes per precinct can change the outcome of an election! “You don’t want to steal all the votes,” I was once told by an old election manipulator, “Just enough to win!” Stealing elections is an “Art.” “The best slight-of-hand men are not working in Los Vegas, but in some precincts counting paper ballots!”
Most elections, left on their own, are pretty close. Republicans have a base of about 40 percent and so do the Democrats. Therefore, the 20 percent in the middle determine who wins the election. Often that 20 percent does not have a motivation to vote, making the election even closer! In a close election, as we saw in Florida a few years ago, every vote is important.
If only half of the eligible potential voters register to vote and then only half of them vote, we are looking at a 25 percent adult turn out on Election Day. (50% + 1 = Victory) When this happens, it takes only about 12 to13 percent of the adult population to win an election! Who gets their 12 to 13 percent to the polls or who manipulates who registers, votes, or the count, wins! The fewer the number of votes an election manipulator has to work with the fewer the number of votes he has to change to effect the outcome. Again, he may not be trying to “win” your precinct in order to win the election. He may be only trying to lower the impact your precinct has on the election totals. If your precinct voted 70 percent Republican in the last election and suddenly voted 55 percent Democrat without any major population changes or having the boundaries redrawn, it would look kind of suspicious. A little change like voting only 60 or 65 percent Republican may go unnoticed. If he and others can change 10 votes or 10 percent in every precinct from candidate A to candidate B that is a 20 vote or unknown percent turnaround times the number of precincts involved! It adds up to victory for someone who was not chosen by the people and power in the wrong hands, hands that are not concerned with what is best for the city, state or nation!
We must each be familiar with the Nuts & Bolts of Election Fraud so that we can expose it and stop it! We must be familiar with the Election Laws in our area so that we can demand that our elections be managed legally, properly and fairly! We must demand changes when the laws are unfair!
