Sean Stevens, a polling place worker in Monroe County, PA faces felony voter fraud charges for reaching into voting booths and changing people’s votes on Election Day.
Stevens, seen here in a video taken on November 4, 2008, set up a bench behind the electronic machines at the polling place he was overseeing and strolled back and forth encouraging people to vote for Barack Obama and actually reaching down and changing votes.
According to County Detective Eric Kerchner, one witness stated:
Stevens reached into the booth, looked at his selections and “selected and deselected” a number of his votes. Kerchner said when the voter went back to push the final vote selection button, he noticed his choice for president had been switched from McCain to Obama. The voter changed the vote back to McCain and completed the process.
The full report from WNEP including the election day footage can be seen here.
I think this is how Murtha won, and McCain had been polling better in PA than the dems wanted to admit... this smells as not an isolated incident
NEWMAN!! He was putting bags of uncounted ballots in storage along with his undelivered mail. LOL
When elections are stolen by fraud, the social contract is meaningless, and we will revert to tribal savagery. Democrats had better think about what that will mean to their constituents.
As a former poll worker, and precinct chief in Virginia, I was always very sensitive to voters who had questions about machine operation. If I had to tell them where to press to register a vote, I’d always gesture in a way which didn’t favor a particular candidate. This guy should get the maximum penalty.
My neighbor’s 18 yo son, voting for the first time, was escorted to the booth by a black helper who insisted on “helping” him. During his explanation he pointed to the box for president as an example and said “this is where you vote for Barack Obama.”
Hmm, let's see... are there any American brewers left who haven't been sold to some European conglomerate?
self bump
Without voter fraud in Oklahoma by ACORN, I should say I am not surprised but this is so bold that it screams out they know nothing will happen to them.
IMHO, I think Obama and ACORN backed by Soros stole this election and how so many seats ended up Dem like several seats in FL.
Ballots not counted, machine votes changed, fraudulent voters casting ballots — all scream VOTER FRAUD! Time to go back to paper ballots that you at least have the opportunity to review.
Agreed. Good Americans risked and gave their lives for what this man allegedly stole.
Be careful...some FReepers would flame you for such a suggestion. :-(
I would be inclined to agree, had I not heard such overwhelming support for Obama over McCain even in many "red" areas.
Remember this...
Exactly! Great that this bum was caught on camera (first time I've seen a case like this), but how many like him engaged in similar election fraud activities around the country on Election Day, before, and after? And how much of Obama's victory margin was the result of this fraud?
Michael Steele, are you courageous enough - as RNC chair - to put this subject on the front burner? Or will you follow the lead of all the GOP bigwigs in the last decade and treat it as the proverbial 800 pound gorilla in the room?
Bookmarking.
One down, and acres of ACORNS to go.
Golly, if convicted, he could face up to 9 years in prison. Sounds like he would be getting off easy.
>Michael Steele, are you courageous enough - as RNC chair - to put this subject on the front burner?
Who cares about Mr. Steele? WE are the ones who need to stand up, take him to court, and try him. (The politicians have already shown that they do NOT care about us, justice, or anything of the sort.)
I thought of you as soon as I saw this story.
why?
Calls to Steele must be made ASAP.
Exactly! People keep saying Michael Steele needs to do this or So and So needs to do that... but until the VOTERS stand up and are counted we will get things like ACORN fraud and Pork spending bills... Michelle Malkin managed to get several hundred people to rally in Seattle, Denver and Phoenix... when that number grows to thousands the media will start to take notice and when that happens change can happen.
Pathetic defense! That's exactly what the WWII Nazi war crimes defendants said at the Nuremberg trials!
Elections director ... on what she'll do to make sure this doesn't happen again[:] "Direct judges of election to be aware of what's going on inside their polling places and that they're going to have to be more careful."
If she had any integrity, this broad would have said that she'd direct police officers to arrest anyone at the polling places caught in the act of perpetrating shenanigans such as this. She sounds like a typical pass-the-buck bureaucrat-drone. I'd be more than willing to bet even money that she's a 'Rat!
