VIDEO: NH poll workers shown handing out ballots in dead peoples’ names By Alex Pappas - The Daily Caller 1:15 PM 01/11/2012

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Video footage provided exclusively to The Daily Caller shows election workers in New Hampshire giving out ballots in the names of dead voters at multiple voting precincts during the state’s primary election on Tuesday.

The bombshell video is the work of conservative filmmaker James O’Keefe and his organization, Project Veritas.

Voters in the Granite State are not required to present identification to vote. O’Keefe’s investigators were able to obtain ballots under the names of dead voters at polling locations Tuesday by simply asking for them, he said.

“Live free or die,” an election worker told one of the investigators in the video. “This is New Hampshire. No ID needed.”

That’s exactly the way they run “elections” in any other two bit banana republic.

It's not just people who are dead. Probably a bigger problem is people who just moved out of the State, or maybe even just to a different voting precinct. My daughter moved out of NJ back in 2003 or so. Her name changed in 2005. Every time I go to vote, usually twice a year, I see her (old) name in the registration book and I tell the folks there that she should be removed from the rolls. They always thank me and tell me that they will leave a note to whomever directing that she be deleted. But she was still there in November 2010. We don't require IDs here either.

Dead man voting: Texas man tries to cast posthumous ballot

By Joe Battenfeld | Wednesday, January 11, 2012 | http://www.bostonherald.com | Election 2012 Photo

MANCHESTER, N.H. — A mystery man trying to vote in the New Hampshire primary using a dead man’s name got caught by an eagle-eyed voting supervisor in Manchester, then disappeared before police could corral him.

“We take a lot of pride in this primary,” Gloria Pilotte, the Ward 9 supervisor who stopped the voter fraud, told the Herald.

“I’m very confident about the way we do this in New Hampshire.”

The man, dressed in a suit and tie, did not say why he was trying to vote as the recently deceased person and would not identify any group he was representing.

“He said, ‘You’ll soon find out,’ ” Pilotte said.

In past primaries, some candidates or groups have tried to challenge the results or demand recounts based on claims of voting irregularities.

The man, who admitted being from Texas, almost got away with the fraud. He came in to the polling place and gave election officials the name of a man who was still on the voter list. Voters here don’t have to present ID if they are registered.

But Pilotte recognized the name and knew the man had died within the past 10 days. Pilotte said the voter list wasn’t updated because the man had died so recently.

She suspects the fraudulent voter got the name by checking recent obituaries.

Mass.: No ID needed; give your address (or any address)
then your name (or any name) and get a ballot. Someone could show up before I do at my precinct and get a ballot in
my name, no questions asked! As long as you say the address
and name and they match.

At my caucus last week in Iowa, I was required to show a photo ID before getting to vote.

You must be white. Black people don't have ID, you know.

This was a PRIMARY, a function of the DemonRat and Repugnican clubs. It has little to do with the actual, Constitutionally controlled election.

I wish that he had held his fire for the real election. Now they are tipped off.

O’Keefe has great instincts. I’m glad he is on our side.

Yeah, he's great. How long before the Dems have him arrested for voter fraud? 3...2...1...

Oh, no ID needed to vote for officials to represent the people in our government. But, don't forget to bring to bring that ID if you need to unclog that drain.

Or vote in a union election. They require photo ID.

I have a palm in new Boston NH and he said come election time he and others have seen coaches and vans from MA bringing in lots of voters in.

This crap needs sorting out but of course the GOP will do nothing as usual and now dead people, Dems, kooks, Libs etc all get to choose our candidate

James did a great job voting for recently deceased folk.

But even better would have been to vote for living Democrats who hold public office or liberals in the local media.

What would be more perfect than a Democrat city council-person or state figure going to vote and finding out someone voted for them already.

Voting fraud will never be fixed until Republicans are seen as benefitting from it.

“This is New Hampshire. No ID needed.”

There’s no need for voter ID laws because voter fraud is so rare!
