EARLY REPORTS INDICATE RAMPANT PRO-LEE BROWN VOTER FRAUD AND IRREGULARITIES IN HOUSTON MAYORAL RUNOFF:
As many of you know, I have been actively collecting and documenting reports of violations of election laws and procedures in the 2001 Houston mayoral runoff, which was narrowly "won" by racist Democrat Mayor Lee "Speaking Lessings" Brown. After only one day of collecting reports, it is sad to say that my early suspicions of voter fraud and other illegalities were correct. Here is an early report of what I have documented to date:
US POST OFFICE FRAUD:
1. Persons active in the Orlando Sanchez campaign recieved well over 1000 pieces of mail marked "return to sender - no such address" out of a small mailout to known republican activists and donors. The mailout was only slightly larger than the number of pieces returned, and all of the returned addresses were HAND ADDRESSED letters to known recipients with valid addresses. Workers in the United States Post Office, many of whom are black Lee Brown supporters, appear to have intentionally and fraudulently stamped the envelopes return to sender after it became known that they were from Sanchez.
2. A voter in precinct 635 recieved 5 separate mailouts from Sanchez today, two days after the election, despite the fact that they had been mailed over two weeks ago according to post marks. The same man reported recieving several pieces of Lee Brown literature in the mail prior to the election, all of it within a day or two of the postmark dates.
3. In Texas, the law allows candidates to mail out absentee applications to their voters, who in turn fill out the applications and mail them to the county. As a result, any absentee application may be identified by the campaign it is sent from, and since the applications are cards that do not get mailed in envelopes, all who handle them may also see what campaign sent the applications out. An elderly Republican couple reported recieving an absentee ballot application for each of them by mail from the Sanchez campaign. Both filled out the application, which was preaddressed to the Harris County Administration Building. Both of them recieved the application in the mail again a few days later marked "return to sender - no such address"! Thinking it had to have been a mistake considering that the Harris County Administration Building has been in the same place for over 20 years, they sent the applications again. They were returned a second time. And a third time. Workers in the US Post Office, a large percentage of whom are black Lee Brown supporters, were deliberately returning the applications to the couple because they had noticed they were Sanchez campaign applications.
ILLEGAL ELECTIONEERING INSIDE THE POLLING PLACE:
1. A Republican Precinct Chairman at a voting location near the University of Houston reported encountering a Lee Brown campaigner in a Brown t-shirt inside his polling place. When he informed her that she was in violation of the law and had to either remove the shirt or leave, she became belligerant and accused him of vote supression. She then began telling other voters in line to demand to file a challenge vote. He responded by confronting her with the election law pamphlet provided to all election workers and indicated he was going to have her arrested. Fearing arrest, she fled the polling place.
2. A Republican Precinct Chairman encountered a similar incident with a Brown supporter electioneering inside his polling place. When the Brown campaigner refused to leave after several warnings, the Republican called the police. The Brown supporter was subsequently arrested.
3. A voter reported encountering Lee Brown literature being distributed among election workers inside of his polling place.
CONFIRMED BALLOT FRAUD:
1. Voters in a heavily Republican precinct in Kingwood arrived at their normal polling place to cast a vote. When they entered the quickly discovered that NONE of their normal polling place workers were present. Instead, a black lady that none of them recognized and her own election workers were running the polling place. Meanwhile, several young children of the new workers ran wild inside the polling place. Several dozen voters in this precinct have reported and confirmed this to be true. Reports of irregularities in this precinct were rampant. Several voters reported hearing the election workers promoting Lee Brown for mayor and possessing his literature inside the polling place. Other voters reported that the children of the workers sat around a table in the precinct and were scribbling in a sign in book for voters in that precinct. One reported seeing them signing names for voters who had not yet voted. This same Kingwood precinct was mysteriously missing later that night when precinct returns were coming in. The election judge, a black lady, was recognized on television by several of the precinct's voters later that evening. She was the last precinct official to turn in her votes, at well after midnight on election night - a full 5 hours after the polls closed. Upon her arrival, she told a reporter that she was late because it was hard "tabulatin' dem votes" even though precinct workers are not supposed to tabulate the votes, the county is.
2. In one precinct, a republican poll watcher reported a voted coming in and demanding to vote. When it was shown she was not registered, she admitted to being registered in College Station, TX, over 2 hours away. The democrat election workers allowed her to cast a ballot anyway after signing an affadavit that contradicted what she had just told them about her registration address.
3. Liberal Democrat State Rep. Debra Danburg, a Brown supporter, used taxpayer money to mail out a letter from the house elections committee, which she chairs, to Republican precinct workers. The letter contained what are gross and intentional misinterpretations of Texas law as well as numerous threats of "severe" criminal penalties if the information contained in her letter was not followed.
That's hilarious.
The people who supported Lee Brown voted for him even though he is grossly incompetent and stupid
Why should they care if he cheats, too?

Everyone knows the Democrats are cheaters, it's just a fact of life
Guys, I am an election judge. As described above the fraud was committed by the voter, not the election officials. According to Texas law you have to allow someone to vote if they sign an affidavit stating they are eligible to vote, have registered to vote in the precinct, and live in the precinct. You cannot stop them.
The appropriate action is to give the voter a challenge ballot. They have to sign a stub with the ballot's number on it. That stub goes in a signed, sealed envelope which is returned with the rest of the ballots. If it is later demonstrated that the voter committed fraud, the envelope is opened, the ballot is found (all ballots have a unique serial number), and removed from the tally.
If you stop someone willing to perjure themselves to vote from voting you commit a felony. All you can do is make sure they go through the challenge procedure.
So don't expect Ascroft to do anything about vote fraud.
Ashcroft also continues to refuse to turn over criminal evidenced to Congress as was ordered for him do on September 11, 2001!

There is a solution for that problem, but most judges lack the balls to use it. You call the election administrator, and tell them to hustle more challenge forms to you -- even if that means using a police car to do it. Then, if they refuse, call up the police, and order them to do it.
An election judge on election day has the same powers as a circuit court judge in enforcing a fair election. I have used this "hammer" a couple of times -- in a velvet-covered way. Once to get extra ballots to my precinct when we were running out. Another time to get the police out to my precinct for traffic control when one moron voter almost ran over a pre-schooler at the school where the polling place was located. (This under the broad rubric of maintaining order.)
The rest of the year, I am mild-mannered Clark Kent, but on election day -- I'm SuperJUDGE!
