Patrick Moran, the son of Representative Jim Moran (D-Va), was caught on tape advising an undercover reporter on ways to fake IDs so invalid votes could be cast. Nevertheless, Virginia State Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R) declined to press charges.
Look, this type of thing is pretty standard for how Democrats try to manipulate elections in this state, Cuccinelli observed. If I filed a case every time they try to commit vote fraud I wouldnt have the resources to pursue more serious crimes.
Cuccinelli also argued that trying to take this kind of offense through the courts may not be the most effective way of dealing with it anyway. The process is long and drawn out. The penalties are inadequate. It may be a case of too little, too late.
Publicity may be the best remedy, Cuccinelli concluded. Getting caught right before election day may help voters understand their choices better at a time when they can more effectively punish these crooks by denying them the fruits of their fraudulent schemes.

It’s Jim Moran (D-8-VA) who’s the wifebeating/child molesting/drunken whoremonger. THIS incident involves his son Patrick who Cuccinelli is investigating. With those genes and parental influence, the kid had a good start.
I met AG Cucinelli a few days ago and talked to him about voter fraud. I said that the ability to use utility bills as proof of ID was ridiculous. He thought there was a much bigger problem at the actual voter registration level. We both agreed that it was nuts that VA law requires the state board of elections to ask him to intervene and investigate cases of potential voter fraud. He can’t just do so on his own initiative.
