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

Not to discount ACORN — you need ACORN to get close enough in a vote count to steal an election. But, my understanding is that the MN election was “thrown” by officials (all Dem) who decided which precincts would be re-counted and which would not: i.e., as in FL with Gore in 2000, precincts in heavily Dem areas were recounted. Precincts in Rep areas were not. Perhaps someone from MN could enlighten us.
We have a “sister site”? Do you have a name & a link?
It amounts to unions organizing useful idiots. They need to change their name to "Working The Families". Thus, the acronym, WTF.
Word is the New York Times is monitoring Fox News to see what news stories they are missing.
You betcha!

Nice folks, up in the Frozen North.
Missing, my derriere. They're watching FNC in order to see what and/or whom they need to provide cover for.
THanks. I did know about them but I had not heard anything from them for several years. And speaking of “frozen north”, temps here (Wisconsin) were sliding to the 34 degree range last night. Had to bring in the jade plant and keep the fountain running all night. Time to put up wood for the winter.

Bertha Lewis sure is a busy little bee. This thread is very instructive:

The next march on DC should be the one to toss out all those elected fraudulently becuz of criminals like Acorn and Bertha... and Obama.
There is the Director of the FBI (whoever that is right now). However, the Director is answerable to the U.S. Attorney General (Eric Holder). I’m doubtful that Holder will perform his sworn duties and investigate an organization that Obozo is neck deep involved with. What say you???
BTTT!
People, this is just the beginning.
Wait until the low-level thugs at ACORN start turning on their overlords and start naming names...
LOL. When’s RICO going to be initiated against these criminals?
Yep, that darn Global Warming's likely gonna be the death of us, what with the new Ice Age coming up...
I've used FD as a backup site for years, when we're down. Still can't figure out Canadian politics, though.

Lol, you know not what you ask! I usually spend at least 4 hours on most animations so I can’t just slap them together quickly like on a ‘flat’, non motion graphic.
Appreciate your confidence in me though, lol!
I say that if I was the director, I would investigate both ACORN and the ties of AMY politician to ACRORN including members of congress, the senate, any of their staffers, and Barack Obama. I would do it without regard to their thoughts on the matter.
LoL! Oh okay! ;-) I know it’s been fun watching you get better and better as time goes on! I had no idea it takes so long, but am not surprised. I tried once and it imho is hard. Would love to try it again some day..
I did oil painting for years so I spend a lot of time painting things. Am too much of a perfectionist I guess and the cutting out and assembling take time.
That’s why I don’t usually go to ‘quick photoshop’ threads.
Many have told me they would love to do it, tried it, but it takes too much time. Hope you get ‘into’ it someday!
