"I said it. But half is pretty darned high. Is that normal?" I don't have a clue. It is the highest percentage I ever remember seeing. I got this off the ACORN site. ACORN has the most sophisticated quality control system in the country. * Most states require every card collected to be turned in whether it is a valid application or not. * ACORN calls each card collected up to three times to ascertain the information on it is legitimate and complete. * All suspicious cards are flagged, set aside, and delivered to the board of elections under a cover sheet that describes the problems. * Almost all the cards submitted to the boards of elections that have been noted as “possibly fraudulent” were caught by ACORN’s quality control procedures first. * ACORN has zero tolerance for fraud and fires employees caught by our quality control systems immediately. So it sounds like they are making a reasonable effort. Despite what Tenchu and the others keep claiming.
