Massive Vote Fraud in New York Linked to ACORN

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

You and I both would investigate - however, you and I both would be replaced for doing our jobs correctly.

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

*****************

I’d like to see the evidence that ACORN and affiliates threw the election for Obama — I strongly suspect BigGovernment/Brietbart is on that one.............. hope so!

I agree with you, Soldierdad, however, sometimes in life you have to take a stand without regard to the consequence. Force 0bama to replace the FBI director whom is investigating the mind boggling corruption that now dwells within the federal government with one of his gangsters from Chicago.

Surely there is some thug in Chicago who has paid to play. Mr. Patrick Fitzgerald perhaps. Let’s make that change as embarrassing to 0bama as it possibly can be.

I completely agree - furthermore, I’m sure that if fired I could find other work - so, I wouldn’t care about being fired for doing my job.

Wait till the 2010 elections. You haven’t seen anything yet.. We assume we’ll take back congress. I think they areall set to fix those elections...

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

I don't know, 'friends' of unions come to mind. Maybe Acorn just helped organize all the players, so they'd be more efficient and effective.

Imagine that

Yeah, of all the gin joints...

Gee, it just seems to be helping the Dems? Hmmm....

Massive Vote Fraud in New York Linked to ACORN

I think the article needs a small correction, indicating that other states are soon to follow. Like Ohio and PA.

I read the other day that they were a 40 year old organization. I can specifically remember their marxist rhetoric re ‘affordable housing’ in Dallas back in the mid 80s.

They’ve been active in NM re a ‘living wage’ during the last 10 years - Santa Fe went for it.

Those are examples of activities they publicize - naturally we aren’t going to hear about vote fraud until charges are filed.
