Fraud-ridden LA voter drive investigated
13 June, 2008
About a week ago, I posted about a Dem voter registration drive in Louisiana that had some major credibility issues. Enough red flags were raised that a few people are checking into the validity of the registrations, and the group behind the drive.
The Advocate reported Secretary of State Jay Dardenne was scheduled to meet with VIP, the group responsible for numerous faulty registrations, last Tuesday. It also described the state of the registrations:
Dardenne said cards are being submitted for people already on the voter rolls and “a significant percentage are being submitted without necessary information to register someone and “blatantly false information.
Two cards received in Caddo Parish had George W. Bush as the voter applicant with a 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. address in Shreveport, Dardenne said. Other cards have been filed for prisoners who cannot vote and dead people. In Jefferson Parish, a voter registration card was filed for the registrar of voters.
“We want to safeguard the integrity of the process by making sure any group seeking to register Louisiana voters provide specific information and it’s not bogging down registrars offices with work premised on false information,” Dardenne said.

Something stinks in Louisiana, and it’s not the week-old gumbo…
I See Dead People …. In the Voting Booth

This is amazing. 
I ran across this editorial from The Florida Times-Union while surfing the net today. Thank goodness there is at least one old media outlet crying out for election integrity and urging elected officials to ensure free and fair elections … or at least not allowing corpses to vote.
Here is the editorial from their website.

Elections: Keep them honest
By
The Times-Union
Voter fraud, like the Energizer bunny, just keeps going and going and going and …
A recent study found 9,000 dead people were registered to vote in Connecticut, Fox News reports.
Ok. I know government is inefficient but lets get them to hire the credit card companies that call me when I miss a payment. At least they know where I am and if I am alive!
Innocent mistakes?
In some cases, but not in all. One person had voted 17 times since his death.
17 times!!!! This is either election fraud or very stupid election judges at the polling
location.
There is pretty strong evidence that voter fraud has altered the course of history.
Chicago Mayor Richard Daley may have stolen the 1960 presidential election by arranging for votes in the names of dead people.
Something definitely was up in Texas. The Washington Post recalls:
“In Fannin County, which had 4,895 registered voters, 6,138 votes were cast, three-quarters of them for [John] Kennedy.
“In one precinct of Angelina County, 86 people voted and the final tally was 147 for Kennedy, 24 for [Richard] Nixon.”
At the time, a reporter investigated voter fraud in Chicago. The Post quotes him as having said:
“I remember a house. It was completely gutted. There was nobody there. But there were 56 votes for Kennedy in that house.”
This is not like voting for the All Star Team in Major League Baseball. It is one man .. one vote not one man… twenty votes!
Who knows what would have happened if Nixon had been elected president in 1960 instead of 1968?
Also, Lyndon Johnson was nominated to the U.S. Senate in 1948 by an 87-vote margin.
That earned him the nickname, “Landslide Lyndon.”
The election, in which some late votes were “found,” may also have been fraudulent, according to The New York Times.

Thousands of brave men and women gave their lives to ensure America has free elections. Let’s hope our election officials live up to their sacrifice. Sadly, some have not.
