Massive Vote Fraud in New York Linked to ACORN
Big Government ^ | 9/29/09 | Mike Roman

Posted on 09/29/2009 9:35:00 PM PDT by pissant

The Working Families Party and local Democratic Party Officials are at the center of a massive voter fraud scandal in Troy, NY.

According to the Times Union:

Dozens of forged and fraudulent absentee ballots from people registered to vote on the Working Families Party line were filed in the Sept. 15 primary elections in Troy.

Documents at the county Board of Elections show the fraudulent ballots were handled by or prepared on behalf of various elected officials and leaders and operatives for the Democratic and Working Families parties.

There may be as many as 50 absentee ballots that were forged, according to people close to the case. Countywide, there were 126 absentee ballots applied for on the Working Families Party line.

What isn’t mentioned is that WFP is nothing more than a front group for ACORN. Or as Roger Stone put it:

The Working Families Party is not about working people or families and it isn’t really a party. The WFP is a wholly owned subsidiary of ACORN. Bertha Lewis co-chair of the Working Families Party is the Executive Director of New York ACORN. New York ACORN leader, Steven Kest was the moving force in forming the party and WFP headquarters are located at the same address as ACORN’s national and New York office at 88 Third Avenue in Brooklyn, New York.

WFP is essentially a money funnel which pays for an aggressive door to door canvas. Largely funded by unions, the WFP is ACORN’s “political arm” in New York State. Candidates supported by the Working Families Party and issues supported by ACORN are both advocated on the door steps of target voter homes as they share one major voter canvas.

Adding more evidence to the ACORN-WFP link is Erick Erickson’s examination of Bertha

We need a fr thread to archive all the links! Would take quite an effort, I did it for the 2nd amendment links yrs ago as well as a maryland sniper archive. I don’t know if I can find the time to do this one. It’s HUGE.

If no media outlet reports illegal activity and no law enforcement agency investigates said illegal activity, was a crime even committed?

I believe, sadly, that you are right: the Federal government is itself a criminal enterprise at this point in out history. The coup has almost been accomplished, and the foxes almost have the complete run of the hen house.

Not saying I’m giving up, but the ballot box seems a rather hopeless option at this point. Two other options left, and we’re exercising one of them right here. For now. :)

ACORN hasn’t been around that long. Who was doing it before they came along?

They have been around since 1970 and their first mission was to get people who could have advanced on their own into LBJ's Great Society welfare instead of being productive citizens. ACORN suceeded. Now they take the second and third generation of the Great Society wards of the state, and turn them into angry mobs to overthrow the very state that has supported them for their entier lives.

See Cloward-Priven Strategy. Got to give those guys credit. They are evil geniuses and am sure they have a special place in hell for all the lives they have destroyed.

“Rumor has it that there is irrefutable evidence/proof that ACORN threw the Minnesota election for Al Franken.”

I really hope you are correct. Do the rumor mills offer hope that significant indictments will occur?

Yep. I wouldn’t have voted for Hillary, but what they did to her was shameful.

Thanks- I’m putting everything I find there. Our sister site’s servers were relocated to Panama due to their legal travails, and they have more protections for privacy than the US or Canada.

Just being paranoid.

The simplest way to link all this stuff together is to use the “keyword” that appears at the foot of each article— “acorn” in this case.

I created “acornundercover” for the purpose of linking the tapes together, but it is so much wider & broader than that— virtually every bad guy we’ve ever heard associated with Duh!1 is involved— that I’d suggest simply sticking with “acorn.”

That would be nice wouldn’t it?...But other than what i’ce stated, I am as much in the dark as you. We’ll just have to see what plays out. Why it’s being held back, to be the other shoe for, I know not.

I vote by absentee ballot as a military member. The only absentee ballot I haven't received was the ballot for the 2008 Presidential Election.

I sent in a provisional ballot; but I wonder if ACORN saved me the trouble...

Yeah, I sure wouldn’t have voted for her but Bozo showed anyone paying attention that he was a criminal at that time.

Is there ANYTHING about Acorn that’s NOT a lie?

ACORN has been around since 1970 - almost 40 years.

Between Leo’s work w/ TerriK [MissTickly] on obtaining information from HI Dept of Health, Orly’s case, Acorn’s dropping from every tree. It has to be obvious to anyone awake that there is a vast conspiracy of the left wing.

Can only hope there are RICO cases, removal from office, and criminal charges under one of several acts.
