REPUBLICAN Congressman investigated for MASSIVE ELECTION FRAUD!

Well, well, well, here we go again sports fans. After the Republican machine stripped a WWII Bronze star hero of his right to vote and DEMANDED he prove he is a US citizen we now find out that a REPUBLICAN Congressman and former PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE is under investigation for MASSIVE election fraud.

U.S. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter a Congressman from Michigan and a Fox News regular is now being investigated by the Attorney General of Michigan after allegations of election fraud. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter failed miserably in his long shot bid for the Republican Presidential nomination and now that his campaign’s massive fraud has been discovered he has even dropped out of the running for his incumbent Congressional seat. Fox News zombies will recognize Thaddeus McCotter from his frequent appearances on Red Eye w/Greg Gutfeld. I personally never heard of the show. Thaddeus McCotter apparently likes to play his guitar on the show and deluded himself that whatever little fame he garnered in the 3 am Fox News demographic could be transformed into a presidential bid. I know pretty delusional. I guess that’s why his staff also figured they could forge HUNDREDS of signatures!

That’s right. Thaddeus McCotter’s campaign required a measly 1,000 signatures to have his name put into the running to defend his incumbent Congressional seat. Apparently after being a FOUR term incumbent he couldn’t get 1,000 signatures to get on the ballot. No problem. His staff just falsified the signatures and turned them in! What’s even worse is after this massive fraud was discovered and most of the signatures were rejected Thaddeus McCotter didn’t drop out. He mounted a write in campaign! Where is the shame? Finally after realizing the write in campaign was futile he dropped out.

This is the massive election fraud the right wing hush mob doesn’t want you to know about. They prefer you to focus on persecuting decorated WWII veterans. The Republican Party really makes me sick.
Well, well, well, here we go again sports fans. After the Republican machine stripped a WWII Bronze star hero of his right to vote and DEMANDED he prove he is a US citizen we now find out that a REPUBLICAN Congressman and former PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE is under investigation for MASSIVE election fraud.

Michigan congressman ends write-in campaign


Published June 02, 2012

FoxNews.com




A five-term Michigan congressman who didn't get enough valid signatures to get on the ballot says he is ending his write-in campaign for re-election.

U.S. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter surprised everyone late last month when he announced the Michigan secretary of state's office had determined he didn't have the 1,000 valid signatures needed to get on the Aug. 7 primary ballot, even though 2,000 signatures were turned in.

A spokesman for the secretary of state has said only a couple hundred signatures appeared valid and many seemed to be copies.

McCotter has asked for an investigation to determine what happened.

He issued a statement Saturday saying he could not cooperate with the investigation, fulfill his current duties and run a write-in campaign, so he is ending his candidacy.

Exagerate much? Where is the "MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD"?

Meanwhile the recall campaign in Wisconsin included signatures from "Mickey Mouse", who was also registered to vote in 2008 by ACORN.

4 Indiana Dems charged with election fraud in 2008 presidential race

Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...ed-with-election-fraud-in-2008/#ixzz1wkvAer2I


Felony charges related to election fraud have touched the 2008 race for the highest office in the land.

Prosecutors in South Bend, Ind., filed charges Monday against four St. Joseph County Democratic officials and deputies as part of a multiple-felony case involving the alleged forging of Democratic presidential primary petitions in the 2008 election, which put then-candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton on the Indiana ballot.

The officials are accused of taking part in a scheme to fake signatures and names on the primary petitions needed to run for president. Court papers say the plan was hatched by local Democratic Party officials inside the local party headquarters.

Among those charged is the former long-time chairman of the St. Joseph County Democratic Party, Butch Morgan, who allegedly ordered the forgeries. He was forced to resign when the allegations were first made public last October, even though his lawyer, Shaw Friedman, told Fox News at the time that Morgan did not do anything wrong.

The St. Joseph County Board of Voter Registration's Democratic board member, Pam Brunette, Board of Voter Registration worker Beverly Shelton and Democratic volunteer and former board worker Dustin Blythe also face charges.

According to affidavits, St. Joseph County Voter Registration Office worker Lucas Burkett told investigators that he was part of the plan that started in January 2008 "to forge signatures on presidential candidate petitions instead of collecting actual signatures from citizens."

The documents state that Burkett told investigators that “he was heavily involved in St. Joseph County political activities with the local Democratic party," and that "he had, in fact, personally forged several such signatures," and had attended meetings at the local Democratic party headquarters, where it was agreed to forge the petitions. Morgan, the County Democratic Chairman, allegedly "instructed Mr. Burkett, Pamela Brunette, Beverly Shelton, and Dustin Blythe to forge ballot petitions for presidential candidates," and that "all of them agreed to follow these instructions" by copying names and signatures from old election petitions.

According to affidavits, Burkett told investigators it was his job to "forge petitions for candidate Barack Obama," Shelton "was assigned to forge petitions for candidate Hillary Clinton" and Blythe "was assigned to forge petitions for candidate John Edwards." When Edwards dropped out of the race at the end of January 2008 and Burkett refused to continue the forgeries, Morgan allegedly ordered Blythe to then forge petitions for Barack Obama.

Indiana State Police investigators identified a total of 22 petitions that appeared to be faked, yet sailed through the Voter Registration Board as legitimate documents. The signature of the board's Republican supervisor, Linda Silcott, which is required for legal certification, appeared to be rubber stamped on the documents. She told investigators that she did not remember signing or authorizing her rubber stamp to be used.

Silcott also told investigators that she recognized the handwriting on the alleged forged Obama petitions as that of Blythe's.

The South Bend Tribune and independent political newsletter Howey Politics Indiana have reported that a handwriting analyst concluded last fall that Blythe's handwriting matched some of the alleged Obama fakes. When Fox News caught up to Blythe as he left the Voter Registration Board last November and asked him if he forged any signatures or faked any petitions, he repeatedly replied, "I don't have anything to say."

The case raises the possibility that the president's campaign and that of Clinton’s, could have been legally challenged in Indiana if the alleged forgeries were discovered during the race.

Under state law, presidential candidates need to qualify with 500 signatures from each of Indiana's nine congressional districts. Indiana elections officials say that in St. Joseph County, which is the 2nd Congressional District, the Obama campaign qualified with 534 signatures; Clinton's camp had 704.

But the signatures, which were certified by the elections board, were never challenged. If the number of legitimate signatures for Obama or Clinton fell below the legal requirement of 500, they could have been bounced from the state ballot. Reports have previously put the number of phony signatures for both candidates at about 150, but state investigators plucked names from the petitions at random and cited only 20 individual alleged forgeries as part of their case. They say their investigation of the petitions continues.

Multiple voters, including Indiana's former Democratic Gov. Joe Kernan, told Fox News that their names and signatures were phonies.

"That's not my signature," Charity Rorie told Fox News as she sat in her kitchen in Mishawaka, Ind.. The mother of four was stunned that her name and signature, and those of her husband, appeared on one of the Obama petitions. She said they "absolutely" were fakes and was troubled that personal details such as their address and birthdays were also included.

"It was shocking," she said. "Why did they do that, and where did they get it from?"

"I did not sign for Barack Obama," Democratic voter Robert Hunter told Fox News as he stared at the Obama petition that included his name and purported signature supporting the candidate. While he observed that the scrawl looked "very close" to his real one, it was not.

"I always put 'Junior' after my name, every time... there's no 'Junior' there," Hunter told us. "I don't like anybody using my name for anything other than myself."

"It's scary," Charity said. "A lot of people have already lost faith in politics and the realm of politics and that solidifies our worries and concerns."

As for Burkett, a 26-year-old lifelong Democrat, "he is the whistle-blower in this," his lawyer, Andrew B. Jones, told Fox News.

"Lucas really is the hero in this situation. He is someone who stood up for good government, and has cooperated with the state police and will continue to do so."

TWO MICHIGAN DEMOCRATS CHARGED- Forged Paperwork to Get Fake Tea Partiers on Ballot (Video) -updated

Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, March 16, 2011, 7:01 PM

What a complete shock…
Two Michigan democrats were charged today with nine felonies for allegedly forging election paperwork to get fake Tea Party candidates on November’s ballot. One of the men was a top liberal blogger in Michigan.

http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/201...ork-to-get-fake-tea-partiers-on-ballot-video/

 

The funny thing about the desperate right wing deflections is none of their off topic posts addresses the fact a sitting Congressman used HUNDREDS of false signatures in order to attempt to hold onto power. Simultaneously hypocritical Republicans are screaming about election fraud. Would any right wingers care to address this hypocrisy or does the hush mob want to continue to try and suppress?

 

Virginia Democrats Confronted with Examples of Voter Fraud, Seem Confused

A major investigation in 2008 voter fraud in Virginia has resulted in charges against 38 people with more warrants pending. According to the Richmond-Times Dispatch:

http://capitolcommentary.com/2012/0...d-with-examples-of-voter-fraud-seem-confused/

 

Do you have any intent to discuss the OP? So pathetic.

 

Oh, we're playing Leftninny Word Dance again!! It's always a favorite of the most easily debunked posters...

 

You've found one. So far I have found many and I'm not finished. Glad you brought the subject up.

 

So do you want to discuss the HUNDREDS of FALSE SIGNATURES a sitting REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN used to try and scam himself onto the ballot while Republicans are simultaneously denying a WWII vet the right to vote?

Republican hush mob is working overtime I see.

 

It's OK when Democrats do it. They're doing it for the greater good, and the ends justify the means.

 

Systemic Voting Fraud Exposed in North Carolina, says Project Veritas




RALEIGH, N.C., May 15, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- During the state constitutional amendment referendum last week, election staff offered the chance to vote to what appeared to be a non-U.S. citizen. Poll workers declined suggestions by a Project Veritas Investigator that he retrieve his passport, making clear that he would be allowed to vote without any ID whatsoever.

Project Veritas investigated individuals who appeared on jury duty rolls as being exempted for not being U.S. citizens, but also appeared to be eligible to vote. It appears as if at least one individual either perjured himself on the Durham County Jury Excusal Form or is not a U.S. Citizen who is registered to vote. One registered voter, a Columbian named Willie Romero refused to disclose his citizenship status to investigators.

The citizen journalist posing as Romero was wearing a costume, speaking Spanish and had a bandaged hand. Despite these absurdities, polling workers readily agreed to give the voting forms to the investigators and even to sign for them.

During a post-election party attended by Project Veritas activists, Durham County Election Judge Michael Williams said, "I MOSTLY support the constitution." He went on to make comments about running over U.S. Supreme Court Justices.

Project Veritas Founder James O'Keefe issued a statement today calling for an investigation into the fraud in North Carolina, "These are egregious violations of the voting process. Allowing non-citizens to vote is a serious disenfranchisement to all Americans. The presentation of photo ID by voters is by no means an unreasonable requirement. We must present photo ID to drive, to fly, even to buy cough medicine, but not to vote?"

Yeah, that "one" happens to be a sitting incumbent Republican Congressman. You've tossed up some faceless low level nobodies that have never been proven to materially affect the outcome of any election let alone a congressional race. The whole point of an election is to determine who gets put into office. No one has ever illustrated to me the current crop of voter supresion laws that the Republicans are desperately ramming through legislatures all over the country would have ANY affect on the time of cases you just cited. Furthermore no one has indicated any of the cases you just cited could have materially affected the ultimate outcome of the races. What this four term INCUMBENT Republican Congressman did most certainly would affect the outcome of a race. And this wasn't one, two, fifty, a hundred voters we are talking about here. This was almost TWO THOUSAND false signatures or 90% of the signatures were false! I have NEVER seen ANY example by any Republican of an election, recall, etc where 90% of the signatures/votes were totally fraudulent. Are you seriously comparing the scope and nature of this MASSIVE fraud to ANYTHING you ever seen?!

 

Sure, it's one guy forging signatures to get himself elected. Now lets look at the wide spread voter fraud across the country to try and get Obama elected. Which is worse?

 

More Than a Dozen ACORN Members Convicted of Voter Fraud This Year



Kevin L. Clancy of Milwaukee pleaded guilty last week to participating “in a scheme to submit fraudulent voter registration applications,” according to Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen. Clancy admitted to filing multiple voter registration applications for the same individuals and registering himself and other voter registration canvassers to vote multiple times while working on an ACORN voter drive.

Clancy received a 10-month prison term for his crime. Clancy’s sentence will begin when he completes another sentence he is currently serving for armed robbery.

ACORN is on a roll this year:


In Milwaukee, former ACORN worker Maria L. Miles, who worked with Clancy, pleaded guilty to “falsely procuring voter registration.” She will be sentenced next month.

Also in Milwaukee, Frank Edmund Walton was convicted of “falsely procuring voter registration.” According to Van Hollen, Walton solicited voter registrations while working for a group called the Community Voter Project. Court documents indicate that after committing the crime he became an ACORN employee. Walton will be sentenced in December.

In Washington state, ex-ACORN canvasser Kendra Lynn Thill was convicted of voter registration fraud and given a 12-month deferred sentence.

That’s not all, click over to the caller for several more convictions. The trial of the ACORN mothership has been pushed off to next year.

[B]Clear Evidence of Voter Fraud in New Mexico[/B]


The New Mexico secretary of state’s office is cross checking the state’s voter rolls with a list of thousands of foreign nationals who have been issued driver’s licenses.

The work is far from done, but Secretary of State Dianna Duran testified during a House committee Tuesday that the review has turned up evidence of foreign nationals obtaining a license, registering to vote and casting ballots.

In case you were wondering, that’s not supposed to happen.


A spokesman for Gov. Susana Martinez, Scott Darnell, says the initial report from Duran’s office should concern every New Mexican.

He says every illegally cast vote disenfranchises a New Mexican and this is another reason why the governor wants to stop issuing licenses to illegal immigrants.

If he is guilty, prosecute him and throw him out.

Wow, that was easy.

 

Good job Marine. OP successfully buried.

 

I think you mean it's one FOUR term INCUMBENT REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN Fox News regular and former Republican presidential candidate.

What's worse is the MASSIVE election fraud that materially affected the outcome of a CONGRESSIONAL race.

Do this. Scour the internet like you've been doing. Total up all the alleged voter fraud from the handful of knuckleheads you find here and there. Multiply that number by ten just for fun. Okay now subtract that number from Obama's vote total. Finally add that number to McCain's vote total. What do you have? Less than a warm bucket of spit. Obama still wins by MILLIONS of votes.

Okay now do this. Put a four term incumbent Congressman on the ballot in his home district. Okay now take him off because you subtracted all the PROVEN (not alleged) false signatures. What do you have. A completely different election outcome. Do you see the difference? This is the proof we Democrats have been asking for. We get a lot of googled dross but NO PROOF of a changed election.

You show me which elections were changed by your MASSIVE voter fraud and we'll talk. The handful of BS instances here and there don't amount to a hill of beans. Furthermore even if you want to address them (which is a good thing) none of the Republican laws that has been proposed has been shown to be effective in combating that kind of voter fraud. So why waste time with laws that aren't even going to address all the wonderful stuff you've wasted your weekend googling?

 

In the headline of your horrid post.

 

Now maybe you can explain why it's only Liberals that are against voter ID?

 

That is a LIE.

 

Voter ID and the other Republican voter suppression tactics would not have prevented this REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN'S FRAUD. Read the tread. Get back on topic. And address the posts.
