" Remember, ACORN is in it to get votes for their left-wing social agenda. "

How would ACORN do this? You make the accusation but haven't been able to articulate how they are doing it.

I grant you, it might happen. Somehow. But it doesn't mean it is.

Again, the DOJ has made this their top priority for years. Where are the cases?

Voter suppression is probably double the problem of fraudulent voting... here are some methods but by no means a complete list.

>ACORN is in it to get votes for their left-wing social agenda.

Which is fine. Get more people voting. I don't care how they vote. The Republicans should be doing more of the same. I want to get electoral participation up near 100%.

>Can't ask for a picture ID, because that wouldn't be "fair" to poor and minorities (and people who can't drive)

Correct.

>Just live with it and pretend that only 0.1% of the votes may be fraudulent?

If it were really 0.1%, that would be a big deal. But there's no evidence of that. It seems like the number of fraudulent votes is more like in the dozens of hundreds, and that they're not of the kind we're talking about. The Republicans have put together studies to prove otherwise, but always find the opposite.
