And the vote fraud continues Betsy's Page ACORN is a leftist organization that seeks to register new voters but they always seem to be connected to some sort of questionable registrations. And the trend continues out in Seattle. <<< King County prosecutors are investigating apparent voter-registration fraud in the 2006 general election. Dan Satterberg, chief deputy to King County Prosecutor Norm Maleng, confirmed late Thursday that attorneys from his office will meet later this week to brief their federal counterparts regarding evidence that hundreds of voter-registration cards submitted in King County were forged.

County prosecutors, aided by King County sheriff's investigators, have been looking into the allegations of forgery since election officials noticed that hundreds of the cards submitted by ACORN canvassers appeared to be in the same handwriting.

But hey, who needs voter ID laws? We wish this were an aberration, but allegations of fraud have tainted Acorn voter drives across the country. Acorn workers have been convicted in Wisconsin and Colorado, and investigations are still under way in Ohio, Tennessee and Pennsylvania. >>> ... betsyspage.blogspot.com seattletimes.nwsource.com opinionjournal.com Message 23383367
