Acorn in Connecticut – Voter Fraud?

In your schools … now in some kinda trouble … around the country and in Connecticut. I detailed earlier here, how Acorn ran a voter registration drive in Hartford’s public schools. How the city and state allowed this partisan group in still has not been explained … but at least in Bridgeport they are in some kinda trouble but they’re also under investigation in Missouri, Ohio, Wisconsin, … oh never mind … read the round up here at Michelle’s web site and read this editorial over at IBD.

Election Fraud: A radical group Barack Obama used to work for is committing voter-registration fraud in several states, ahead of the election. What does Obama know about this scam?

The group’s voter-registration fraud is rampant, and authorities plan a nationwide sweep of ACORN offices to collect records.

In Nevada, state officials say the fraudulent registrations included forms for the starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys football team, including quarterback Tony Romo.

“Romo is not registered to vote in the state of Nevada,” Secretary of State Ross Miller said, “and anybody trying to pose as Terrell Owens won’t be able to cast a ballot on Nov. 4.”

While those names will be flagged on Election Day, felonious voters may have better luck using other cutouts. Nevada, along with several other key battleground states, requires no ID to vote.

In North Carolina, where Obama has been running nonstop ads, ACORN has registered a record number of new voters, many of them suspicious. Statewide, Democrats are doing better than the GOP in new converts — even in traditionally Republican counties.

There have been 218,749 newly registered Democrats in North Carolina since January — more than five times the 38,337 new Republicans, state records show.

The numbers show a startlingly close political battle even in Republican-dominated Union County, with 4,233 new voters registering as Democrats and 4,362 as Republicans. In previous election years, new Republicans have outnumbered Democrats 2-to-1 in the fast-growing Charlotte-area county.

    From the Courant…
    "Campo, a junior who wants to be a police officer, said she’s especially concerned about taxes and oil prices; her parents don’t have much money and should get a tax cut, she said.

    “I wish I was old enough to vote,” she said during the assembly. “I’d vote like a thousand times for Barack.”

    From my post here… http://conservative247.org/national-politics/442/

    Yup. ACORN is just the organization to help you vote – like – a thousand times for Obama.
