I'd love to see the person who turns up to vote as Donald Duck. And points to his completed registration.
Of course, it'd have to be in Florida (California's safe <g>), but he can show proof of address and plenty of photographic evidence. And maybe claim a pension, he's got to be around 70 by now.

I think the complete failure of any media to report voting ducks, surely something sensational enough for any and every channel, is pretty good indication that it doesn't happen. Sadly enough. But those registrations really don't matter.

Why does Acorn round up fraudulent voter registrations then? There must be some reason for it.

Don't give me the stock answer that it was their employee's abuse, not theirs. Acorn is responsible for the actions of its employees.

Acorn has no business taking tax payer dollars for their activities.

Peoples who want to register and vote can do so without such coercion.
