OLYMPIA, Wash. -- The Building Industry Association of Washington recently sent hundreds of surveys to King County residents, claiming its purpose was to help project housing trends in the Puget Sound region.
Turns out the three-question survey -- enclosed with a $10 check as an incentive to return it -- was part of a plan by backers of former Republican gubernatorial candidate Dino Rossi to search for fraudulent votes cast in the disputed November election, The Seattle Times reported Friday.

I like it, reminds me of the "free TV giveaways" the cops use to lure in people who have a warrant issued.

I agree with it 100%. Each and every one of them got their ten dollars.

Why? I think this is a GREAT WAY to uncover Rat cheating.

HA! The same thing went through my mind. Except these people really did get their 10 dollars.

If it's legal, that's more than can be said of the Wa. State election.

Its very unseemly. It actually is stealing peoples signatures, Berendt said.
No they paid $10 for them.

Tom McCabe, the groups executive vice president, said about 120 checks or surveys have been returned. About 20 of them raised questions for McCabe. Some signatures on voter affidavits Democrats submitted in November dont match signatures on surveys and checks the builders group collected from the same people. McCabe said he suspects Democratic volunteers forged signatures.
State Democratic Party Chairman Paul Berendt said that didnt happen and suggested that what the BIAW did should be against the law.
Its very unseemly. It actually is stealing peoples signatures, Berendt said. What hes done is essentially a form of identity theft.
Ohh the irony!

Berendt said nothing about forging the voter's signatures when his dozens went door-to-door (allegedly) , replacing missing ballot signatures with their forged ones. Proving that was the reason of this exercise.

While it's after the fact, maybe we should do the Purple Finger thing next election. Cuts down on some double voting (though all the other methods of cheating wouldn't be stopped).

That beats stealing people's votes for nothing....
To: llevrok
It was a great plan--but you weren't supposed to get caught! :-)
Next time troll for Seattle newspaper reporters in the personal section under "gay sex", take lots of video, and _then_ send out the survey. ;-)

Hmmm, that's sounds about right for dem/socialists logic.

Christina Spears-Bartunek of Duvall had a quick answer for why the signature on her check was so different from the one on her affidavit. "My husband signed the check, she told The Times, calling the survey deceptive. So says the pot calling the kettle black.
