Voter Fraud, ACORN, and John Edwards
:.in interviews with King County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Johnson, several of the defendants – while freely admitting they forged the forms – insisted that they had been told ACORN would shut down their office in Tacoma if they didn’t improve their numbers, Johnson wrote in a probable cause statement.
One, Ryan Olson, said another worker in the office told him “do what you have to do” to turn in more cards.
ACORN’s oversight of the workers was virtually nonexistent – to the extent that civil charges could have been warranted, Satterberg said.
In a settlement agreement announced Thursday, ACORN, which cooperated with the investigation, agreed to pay $25,000 and to make improvements in its management, training and oversight of suspect voter registrations throughout the state.
ACORN is tied to massive voter fraud in Missouri, Ohio, and 12 other states.
Michelle adds:
The Seattle Times adds that the announcement of criminal charges came after the King County Canvassing Board revoked 1,762 allegedly fraudulent voter registrations submitted by ACORN employees.
According to prosecutors, six ACORN workers “had admitted filling out registration forms with names they found in phone books last October. The canvassers filled out the forms while sitting around a table at the downtown Seattle Public Library.”
You’ll love some of the names they used, via Sound Politics:
Tom Tancredo
Dennis Hastert
Alcee Hastings
John McKay
Leon Spinks
Frekkie Magoal

ACORN and voter fraud: Perfect together.

Relax! Did you think I wouldn’t tie Edwards into this?

And isn’t a failure to investigate and prosecute voter fraud one of the reasons that the Bush administration gave for canning those 8 US Attornies? Considering that ACORN almost exclusively registers Democrats, is it any wonder that the Dems in Congress are so upset that they were fired?

This story is especially significant since the Washington State Governor was elected by Voter Fraud in King County.
I know Tofu was one of the Democrats here screaming Voter Fraud in Ohio when there was no GOP fraud. I wonder if he’ll apologize for his being an *ss and admit that it is the Democrats who stuff the ballot box?
