"There are so many BASIC facts that you are in complete denial over."

He isn't in denial over those things. What you are in denial of is, despite spending millions of dollars and years of effort and dedicating the bulk of the DOJ to finding cases where the things you claimed actually happened, they came up dry. They found zero cases that fit your scenario.

None.

Zero.

Zip.

Zilch.

Not even close. The few cases of actual voter fraud they uncovered were cases where someone wasn't sure if they were eligible or not and they weren't. Even if they really were sure and were trying to game the system, that still amounted to well under a dozen.

"It's all about ideology."

As you repeatedly prove.

>FACT: There have been several instances of ACORN employees getting false voter registrations, more so than most other "get out the vote" organizations. Do you deny that?

How do you know that there are more instances for ACORN than other organizations that register by the signature?

>FACT: Without a strong grip on the voter registration process, there would be no way to prevent voter fraud. Do you deny that?

We have one.

>FACT: You can NEVER prevent someone coming in and voting over and over again if you don't enforce the validity of voter registrations. Do you deny that?

They'd have to know the names of several people on the voter rolls, and would have to be able to verify that they actually made the rolls... They'd also have to know for sure that they wouldn't be recognized twice. And if they were caught, there's a pretty steep penalty.

And there's ZERO evidence that this has ever happened. I mean, I bet it has. But if it has, it's very, very rare.

You seem to think the controls are very loose. That's not my experience here. Today I got called up by King County elections......I recently voted by mail. They said my signature did not match up with my signature when I first registered and I now have to fill out more info to satisfy their concerns that I might be cheating with my vote. I doubt anyone can get away with much voter fraud these days.
