Nevada state authorities seized records and computers Tuesday from the Las Vegas office of an organization that tries to get low-income people registered to vote, after fielding complaints of voter fraud.
Guess. No, really - guess.
...the raid was prompted by ongoing complaints about “erroneous” registration information being submitted by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, also called ACORN. ...through a voter sign-up drive known as Project Vote.
You guessed didn’t ya?
"Some of them used nonexistent names, some of them used false addresses and some of them were duplicates of previously filed applications,"
response?
"Today’s raid by the secretary of state’s office is a stunt that serves no useful purpose other than discredit our work registering Nevadans and distracting us from the important work ahead of getting every eligible voter to the polls."
In WA, in 2006, “ACORN submitted just over 1,800 new voter registration forms, and all but six of the 1,800 names were fake.”
More recently, 27,000 registrations handled by the group from January to July 2008 “went into limbo because they were incomplete, inaccurate, or fraudulent,” said James Terry, chief public advocate at the Consumers Rights League.
