3 dropped as voter registration workers after felonies flagged
Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel ^ | October 20, 2012 | By Jason Stein

Three felons - including one man convicted of multiple counts of forgery - have had their status revoked as voter registration workers in Milwaukee and have been referred to county prosecutors after the Journal Sentinel flagged their criminal backgrounds to city officials.

The two workers from the Community Voters Project now under scrutiny were both let go by the group for unspecified reasons, said Brad Martin, a national spokesman for the group. The Community Voters Project employs and trains temporary workers to register African-American and Latino voters in swing states such as Wisconsin, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

The third registration worker referred to the district attorney's office didn't list himself as working for an organization. The Journal Sentinel is not naming the three workers because so far they have not been accused publicly of any crime.

In Wisconsin, Community Voters operates just in Milwaukee. The group does not pay its workers by the number of signatures gathered but does require workers to meet daily targets for signatures.

Yeah, the unspecified reasons were that they got caught.

I have old college friends (married couple) from 40+ years ago. Leftists to this day. Who I suspect are voting in their NY summer place via absentee ballot and at the polls in Florida at their winter home.
Can’t prove it. But it fits the leftist mantra that all is fair to bring socialism to America.

I know people in the Chicago area who BRAG about voting as many times as possible. They did this in 2008 and smirked while telling me, as though it was an honorable thing.

got that right, I’m here in FL and many of us know that many of the northern liberals use a vacation address down here , even an address they do not live in but use one family who has moved here and then have that family say they have other family living there too.

We have a family who moved from NY, they rent a house, live on welfare, hang about all day, they still have their NY plate on the car though FL law states they should have to get the FL plate within 30 days , they refuse to talk to any neighbors and their daughters who are always in trouble at the school said they are only here for a while and they’ll be moving soon,but boy they got their obama yard sign out, the only one in this county I have seen.

I guarantee that they will be voting in NY and here in FL and will be moving on after the election and probably using their address for others to say that they live there so they can vote as well.

I don’t know how it works in NY/FL but in VA you can check voter registration online. (May need last 4 of SS#, can’t remember). It seems to me that the districts have an obligation to their legitimate voters to cross reference voter registrations. FL was supposed to be doing that this year, hope they did.

I found by checking VA registrations that my son who’d moved to Richmond a year and half ago was still registered in Fairfax, so told him to get that fixed before the registration deadline. Hopefully, I don’t regret that if he votes for O.

I believe it is the Dems who advocate that criminal records be off-limits when applying for jobs.

the GA media did an investigation into FL election and found over a 100,000 votes came from people who should not have voted here and had voted twice.

http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/some-georgians-suspected-of-voting-twice/nJRks/

This is not including those snow birds and from up north like NY, MA, IL, RI,CT,NJ, MD etc.

Infact they;ve just got someone who was running in MD and found to have been voting in here in FL.

Then add the illegals and it shows probably over half a million votes the left gets which are frauds.

Oh BTW, We had Biden here and he hardly got a crowd, on his way to the airport many were lined up on the route showing Romney signs, and putting down their thumbs etc.

That night many Romney signs in the county were taken, coincidence, no chance

In Pennsylvania, you can check with an address and the month/year of a person's birth.

I am convinced Team Obama has made the conscious decision to send Ole Lunch Bucket Joe to places they’ve already written off ;)

When the history of the ‘12 elections are written, maybe my fav story will be about that woman from MD who was the candidate for the House, and who voted both in MD and FL. How stupid can one person be???

Biden was in my county, St JOhns county in FL , one of the most republican counties in this state and yet biden came here, doesn;t make sense.

I talked to a cop I knew who was on detail at the airport and an SS guy.
I said tot he cop who on this earth would Biden come here and he laughed and said everyone in the Sheriffs county has asked the same question, the SS laughed and then I said to the cop how big is the crowd and he replied he was at the elementary school gym and it;s small so that speaks about how many want him here anyway.

Anyway I left and went up the road and met a Sheriff PSA guy who was about to stop traffic and he said virtually the same, he then also said that I could go before he stops traffic as Biden he;s sure has messed my family up for 4 years and he shouldn't mess my trip home too.

No one wanted him here hardly, just a few nuts coming in from different counties, as he went past a gas station and a pub everyone came out and gave the thumbs down or held a Romney sign as he went by.

My kids got a kick out of all of this and even my youngest knows more about politics than most obama voters.

As he went by us we saw what looked like an older guy looking out of the window at us with a surprised look on his face, you know that dopey surprised look.

Whilst your convinced about the decision to send Biden places I'm also convinced that the obama voters will go down in history as the dumbest voters this country has ever seen.
