Officials Plead Guilty in New York Voter Fraud Case
FOXNEWS ^ | 12/21/11 | Eric Shawn

Posted on 12/21/2011 4:50:53 PM PST by Doogle

A total of four Democratic officials and political operatives have now pleaded guilty to voter fraud-related felony charges in an alleged scheme to steal a New York election.

The latest guilty pleas expose the ease with which political insiders can apparently manipulate the electoral system and throw an election their way, by the forging of signatures of unsuspecting voters that are then cast as real votes.

"The phrase they use is: 'making sure they vote the right way,'" said a source close to the case, which is unfolding in Troy, N.Y. "It is not a Democratic or Republican thing. ... It is criminal."

Former Troy Democratic City Clerk William McInerney, Democratic Councilman John Brown, and Democratic political operatives Anthony Renna and Anthony DeFiglio have entered guilty pleas in the case, in which numerous signatures were allegedly forged on absentee ballots in the 2009 Working Families Party primary, the political party that was associated with the now-defunct community group, ACORN.

Sure it is. The VAST majority of vote fraud in this country is done by Acorn and other Dem front groups.

But pardon me, it's politically incorrect to point that out. Sorry.

Godspeed

St. Joseph County Prosecutor Michael Dvorak, in South Bend, is currently investigating allegations that numerous signatures on 2008 Democratic Presidential primary petitions for then candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, were faked. There are claims that so many signatures were fraudulent, that the Obama campaign may not have actually obtained enough legitimate signatures to have legally qualified for the ballot.

And just like the New York voters in Troy who told Fox News that they never signed absentee ballots, voters in South Bend and Mishawaka told us that their signatures were forged too.

Don't be absurd! Of course vote fraud exists. Republicans commit vote fraud all of the time! /s

Remember Florida when Bush "stole" the election from Sore Looserman?

Voter Fraud is so ranpent in Pennsylvania that Cris (Spittle) Matthews joked about it in 2004 with Philly
Disgusting Fraud Mayor Street, and Street promised a plurality for “Vietnam Fraud Kerry” of 400,000 votes
which carried Pennsylvania by 100,000 votes over
President G. W. Bush! Matthews and Street were joking about how many millioms of dollars Street had to quote:’ Get OUT THE VOTE!” on Electiom Day! eg. ACORN, Dead People, Illegals, and Fraudulent Fictious Demorat Nonexistant Jerks!

"It is not a Democratic or Republican thing. ... It is criminal."

It's a DEMOCRAT thing. And it is CRIMINAL.

I vote democratically for Republican candidates.

Conspiracy to steal an election should be a capital offense. Felons can still get back the "right" to vote.

Unbelievable that they mentioned party affiliation in the first sentence, let alone the first paragraph.

Jail Time with large lonely men should do just fine.

Yet MORE positive proof that every state needs to pass strict voter ID laws NOW!
Is it any wonder the DemocRATS fight voter ID laws so hard?
