Obama Acorn Voter Fraud

Recently, Democrats tried and failed to stuff an "affordable housing" provision into the $700 billion bank rescue package that would have let politicians give even more to ACORN.

Obama's Campaign "Paid More Than $800,000" To ACORN For Get-Out-The Vote Efforts

Canvassers for Acorn, which has registered 1.3 million new voters - mostly African-Americans, Latinos and young people - had committed widespread fraud in several battleground states

In Ohio, a state Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) lawsuit was against the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). The lawsuit alleges ACORN has engaged in a pattern of corrupt activity that amounts to organized crime. An accumulation of evidence shows numerous instances of admitted fraud by ACORN employees, as well as individuals solicited by ACORN.

In Ohio, one man registered 73 times.

In Missouri, 10 registrations were submitted in the name of a dead woman.

Houston had rejected or put on hold about 40% of the 27,000 registration cards submitted by Acorn.

Connecticut estimates about 20% of Acorn's registrations were faulty.

Oct 2008 - Nevada's Secretary of State requested a raid on Acorn's offices, following complaints of false names and fictional addresses.  Nevada's Clark County Registrar of Voters Larry Lomax said he saw rampant fraud in 2,000 to 3,000 applications Acorn submitted weekly.

Officials in Ohio are investigating voter fraud connected with Acorn, and Florida's Seminole County is withholding Acorn registrations that appear fraudulent. New Mexico, North Carolina and Missouri are looking into hundreds of dubious Acorn registrations. Wisconsin is investigating Acorn employees for, according to an election official, "making people up or registering people that were still in prison."

In Lake County, Indiana, more than 2,100 bogus applications among the 5,000 Acorn were dumped right before the deadline. "All the signatures looked exactly the same," said Ruthann Hoagland, of the county election board.

On September 1, 2008, Milwaukee election officials announced that they were seeking criminal investigations of ten additional voter registration workers, most of whom appear to have falsified driver’s license numbers, Social Security numbers, or other information on hundreds of voter registration cards. All of the workers were paid by ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now

On August 27, 2008, ACORN curtailed its voter registration activities in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, after election officials announced they were investigating ACORN’s suspicious activities there. ACORN workers reportedly often handed in the same name on a number of voter registration cards, but showing that person living at different addresses. Other times, cards had the same name listed, but a different date of birth. Still others showed a number of people living at an address that turned out to be a restaurant

In August 2008, the Milwaukee Election Commission announced that criminal investigations could be launched against at least six voter registration workers (for ACORN) who tried to add dead, imprisoned, or imaginary people to the voter rolls

In July 2008, three canvassers in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia admitted to putting fake names on at least 80 voter registration applications, and the news report says that similar activities have been discovered in other Virginia counties

In July 2008, central Pennsylvania authorities offered a $2,000 reward for information on the whereabouts of a temporary worker for ACORN, accused of submitting more than 100 fraudulent voter registration forms.

State election officials had rejected large numbers of the new registrations: 57,000 out of 233,000 alone in the Philadelphia area. However, when asked he could not say how many were rejected because of incomplete or incorrectly filled forms, or fraud - or how many were later reinstated on appeal.

Investigators probing ACORN have learned that an Ohio man registered to vote several times and cast a bogus ballot with a fake address, officials said yesterday, as they revealed that nearly 4,000 registration applications supplied by the left-leaning activist group were suspect.

3,650, of the 73,000 total registration cards turned in by ACORN in the Cleveland area from its Project Vote initiative to sign up low-income voters were "questionable

Obama's Campaign "Paid More Than $800,000" To ACORN For Get-Out-The Vote Efforts; The Campaign Originally "Misrepresented" The Group's Work To The FEC. "U.S. Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign paid more than $800,000 to an offshoot of the liberal Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now for services the Democrat's campaign says it mistakenly misrepresented in federal reports. An Obama spokesman said Federal Election Commission reports would be amended to show Citizens Services Inc. -- a subsidiary of ACORN -- worked in 'get-out-the-vote' projects, instead of activities such as polling, advance work and staging major events as stated in FEC finance reports filed during the primary."
