My personal ACORN story (Blogger posts about her encounter with ACORN volunteer)
http://politics2008myview.blogspot.com ^ | October 10, 2008 | anne onee mus

I was taking my dogs to the bathroom when some car stopped in front of my house. a few kids got out, they looked like the typical thug types. Unwashed, scraggly hair... pants down past their ankles... unshaven... wife beater shirts.

the car took off and the kids it dropped off dispursed. A few of them looked at my McCain signs in my yard and started walking away. I took my dogs inside and noticed one of them came back and walked up to my door. I thought "Oh great. someone selling something."

He looked at my house for a minute on my doorstep, and started writing something down, like my address or something, then walked away. After a few minutes he came back, and repeated the same thing.

I opened the door and asked if I could help him. I think he was surprised because he didn't expect me to open the door when he didn't knock obviously. he started stuttering right off the bat. So I asked him who he was.

He kept saying he was from an independent polling company and that he just wanted to ask a few questions about the upcoming election... (odd that 2x he didn't bother knocking on my door. And don't you usually dress somewhat decently if you're going to be representing a company or social group of any kind?)

when I asked him what it was for and who he was with, he wouldn't tell me. I asked him again for that information, and again, he wouldn't tell me. So I told him to leave my property. He basically refused and started copping an attitude with me saying he had every right to be there because he is there for a legitiment reason.

one of my brothers (a cop in the area) was there visiting and explained to him that if I ask him to leave my private property, he DOES have to leave or it's tresspassing. He asked him for his name and he refused to give it to him saying that he didn't have to tell him anything. I was starting to get worried he was a punk casing the joint... so my brother told him to leave one last time. He basically said that my brother couldn't do anything to him because he was off duty. My brother once again told him to leave.

he called my brother few choice names starting with an F'bomb and ending with something that rhymes with witch.

So he called in ON DUTY officers.

After getting his information, they found that he was a volunteer for ACORN, they had already been reported by others for harrassment in days previous.

My theory, it is possible they were targeting McCain supporters, and using their addresses to register fake voters because all he did was come to my door 2x and write stuff down on a pad of paper. the only thing I could think of was my street address that is displayed next to my door. that's my concern at least, and I'm currently investigating to see if anyone other than myself is registered to vote under my address.

I know it’s wrong and egotistical to have this attitude but I wish something like this would happen to me.

It sort of happened to me. Outside a Whole Foods market in Van Nuys. They wanted me to register, even though i was already registered. What is up with that?

Looks like they’re attemting to register dead people under McCain supporters’ addresses.

So when the legit registered (McCain) voter checks in to vote, there is mass confusion as to who actually is registered under that address (the acorn fake or the McCain voter).

Has the potential to null some McCain votes.

Folks, this is no longer a free and fair election. It is now a POLITICAL COUP!

I saw posters around town today—Help put Obama in the White House! Earn up to $2100 per month. And then these ads are rampant on Craig's List:

I think they are doing it to overwhelm the system.

Democrats, courtesy of ACORN, make voter fraud their livelihood. I'm still convinced that were the last two elections on the up-and-up, it would have been determined that Bush won both by landslides.

One thing that could be done is some states would be to re-register people in other jurisdictions and have their registration struck from their actual address.

It could be a way to swing a vote. Have a fake vote under your name in a new jurisdiction, then you have to vote provisional and prove that you did not vote in the new jurisdiction.

You handled that much better than I would have. Good job.

Seems that the Acorn idiots don't want confrontation with somebody who's obviously on to their tricks. Typical liberal coward.

Oh, keep your eyes open, and keep your cars in the garage. These punks could come back to vandalize, since you are a McCain fan. Keeping the sprinkler set up in the front lawn could be handy. Don't forget to smear a little hot sauce on the McCain sign.

ACORN helps all the lib polls too.

When ACORN registers all these new (dead) voters, it allows Newsweek, CBS, etc to skew samplings so ridiculous it depresses repubs.

E.G. Rasmussen has it +6.3 Dems. All because ACORN registers dead people.

It’s all leads back to ACORN.
