Report Shows Liberal Third Party Groups Efforts to
Circumvent Law and Register Illegal Voters in 2004
Blogs for Bush
(bumped, from March 23, 6:25 pm)
Tuesday, the nonpartisan American Center for Voting Rights released a report that outlines preliminary findings of registration fraud, intimidation, vote fraud and litigation in the state of Ohio for the 2004 election.
The report shows how Democrat groups such as ACT, ACORN, and the NAACP were the ones largely engaging in these types of illegal activities. The full report and press release are available online on their website (link below).
My first look over this report was illuminating and disturbing. Liberal groups undertook a massive coordinated effort to undermine the voting process in the state of Ohio.
Barbara Boxer is... not saying anything about this apparently...
UPDATE: Jason Smith is not surprised...

Third party organizations, especially ACT, ACORN, and NAACP engaged in a coordinated “Get Out The Vote” effort. A significant component of this effort appears to be registering individuals who would cast ballots for the candidate supported by these organizations. This voter registration effort was not limited to registration of legal voters but, criminal investigations and news reports suggest, that this voter registration effort also involved the registration of thousands of fictional voters such as the, now infamous, Jive F. Turkey, Sr., Dick Tracy and Mary Poppins. Those individuals registering these fictional voters were reportedly paid not just money to do so but were, in at least one instance, paid in crack cocaine.
The fraudulent voter registrations, however, appear to be only part of the effort of these organizations to influence the election. There was an apparently coordinated national litigation strategy to manipulate election laws in battleground states and, specifically, to eliminate the provisions of election law that would prevent vote fraud.

ACORN/Project Vote's activities in Ohio appear to be just part of a pattern of activities observed across the country, in which their workers submitted fraudulent voter registration information to election authorities.
ACORN/Project Vote is closely aligned with ACT, SEIU and NAACP National Voter Fund through the America Votes Coalition, a coordinating council of approximately 30 liberal interest groups.

Third party organizations were notorious for submitting faulty, incomplete or outright fraudulent registrations across the country. 2 Ohio was not spared this onslaught of fraudulent voter registrations. Boards of elections were flooded with hundreds, if not thousands, of faulty and fraudulent registration cards. Worse still, these groups collected and compiled these cards for months, apparently holding back new voter registration cards and delivering them to election authorities on or shortly before the statutory deadline.
This delay in submitting these voter registrations minimized the ability of election authorities to validate the registrations. This delay also left legitimate registrants unable to determine if their registrations were accepted and to timely correct any errors.
