Barack Obama’s dear friends at ACORN are busy trying to lie, cheat, and steal their way to victory in November.
The latest ACORN Watch entry comes to you from the battleground state of New Mexico, where election officials have notified prosecutors of an estimated 1,100 possibly fraudulent voter registration cards.
The Bernalillo County clerk has notified prosecutors that some 1,100 possibly fraudulent voter registration cards have been turned in to her office.
Some cards in New Mexico’s most populous county have the same name as a voter who’s already registered, but carry a different birth date or Social Security number; some list someone else’s Social Security number; some have addresses that don’t exist, Clerk Maggie Toulouse Oliver said Wednesday.
In one case, a series of about nine cards appears to have been taken directly from the phone book, she said.
“Those are sort of the big red flags,” Toulouse Oliver said.
Yes, a big red flag for ACORN participation. You’ll recall that ACORN workers used phone books in Seattle to perpetrate voter fraud.
ACORN’s fingerprints are all over this latest incident:
Some of the estimated 1,100 registrations list Social Security numbers for people who already are in the county’s database of registered voters, Toulouse Oliver said. Other cards list the same name — but a different birth date — of already registered voters.
Some of the people whose names appear in the list of possibly phony registrations, when called by the clerk’s office, said they never filled out the new cards changing their voter data, Toulouse Oliver said.
In addition, “We do have a series of cards identified that appear to be (names) taken straight out of the phone book, Toulouse Oliver said. Toulouse Oliver said the potential scope of the problem has mushroomed since late last month, when the Journal reported on a forged card for Rebecca Sitterly, a former state District Court judge from Albuquerque who has been voting in the same place for nearly two decades.
That card was submitted by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, a controversial nonprofit organization that says it has handled 72,000 new voter registrations in New Mexico since January.
Matthew Henderson, head organizer for the group, said the Sitterly card was set aside as a potential phony by ACORN itself and turned in to the clerk’s office with a batch of other possibly bad cards.
Toulouse Oliver said she did not know how many cards in the current stack of questionable registrations were submitted by ACORN, though she said that group this year has done the majority of so-called third-party registrations — those that aren’t turned in by the voters themselves but are submitted by groups organized to enlist new registrants.
ACORN contract workers in 2005 were investigated in connection with forged signatures on a minimum wage ballot petition, though ACORN supervisors have said political organizers now oversee the registration gathering and the group has beefed up its own quality control.

I think it’s time to throw out any registrations, nationwide, that were submitted by the ObamaCorns. They can’t be trusted.
If you look hard millions of these can be found.
If they caught 1100 it means there are actually 10 times that number that wasn’t caught.
ACORN is a domestic terrorist organization.
Where’s that incompetent race baiter AG Eric Holder to investigate these crimes?
ENOUGH ALREADY! No voter applications should be accepted from any ACORN source until they are proven accurate.
United Way is still funding ACORN.
It's been time already since about 14 states are involved in ACORN voting fraud investigations. Imagine it wasn't caught in other states as well. but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. Elections officials nationwide should make certain that future elections in their districts are certified ACORN-free.
Just a heads up: On MM’s site the date is 9-17-2008. It reads as if it was before the 11-08 election.

A boss at one job had United Way placards filling his wall for 100% employee participation. I declined to participate (had other charities in mind) and ruined his chance to have a decade of plaques on his wall. Many have told me they've experienced similar pressure to donate to United Way at jobs (almost a pre-condition of employment).
Thanks.
Admin moderator could you correct the date from the original article to September 17, 2008? I posted it as 2009.
Every state should open an investigation into ANY ACORN affiliation and demand audits. Start with the money then attack the practice. Records IMHO will be more than absent.
Jail is in order for everyone involved. (If it were me I would put capital punishment on the table, but I know that will not happen)
No one person or organization should be handling registration forms or registering voters except the state or county election office. Handing off registration activity to private partisan groups guarantees fraudulent elections. This is what has been keeping the corrupt Democrat Party in power.
Exactly the number of votes Obama "won" by. What an amazing coincidence.
