But I do think having somebody vouch for you is insufficient proof of identity and residency.<BR/><BR/>There's also a difference between ACORN workers' having submitted false forms so they could be paid more and what Republicans were railing against.Jay Bullockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18303687624670151530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-52170529615263612972007-05-21T21:14:00.000-05:002007-05-21T21:14:00.000-05:00We can both agree wholeheartedly that "Accenture S...We can both agree wholeheartedly that "Accenture Sucks." I have different reasons for that than you do--but that's irrelevant.<BR/><BR/>I do not recall reading a post in which you specifically called for revocation of the "voucher" thing--but then, my photographic memory was sent to Karl Rove's closet back in 1998. (Your name was not in the memory banks--you're safe for the time being...)<BR/><BR/>I have never claimed that the ASPCA was involved in vote fraud. I never claimed that the Democrats got their voters from the dog pound. (It's tempting...but I resist to the end...)<BR/><BR/>However, ACORN (or their employee/operatives) just happens to have been indicted in St. Louis and other places (Ohio, IIRC)for having submitted fraudulent voter-materials. C'mon--admit it--you don't really trust ACORN, either.<BR/><BR/>After all, they won't even pay Minimum Wage...<BR/><BR/>So you agree that Same-Day Registration is an abomination and besides, an invitation to fraud?Dad29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08554276286736923821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-18487342384071104472007-05-21T20:31:00.000-05:002007-05-21T20:31:00.000-05:00Actually, we lefties were writing about Kimberly P...Actually, we lefties were writing about Kimberly Prude before you were. (I didn't specifically, but I linked to the Brew City Brawler, who did. Multiple times.)<BR/><BR/>The City of Milwaukee refused to pull her ballot out when requested. (It had not been opened. It could have been found and destroyed.) The HAVA vote lists that should have had her name as a felon were not finished, because Accenture sucks. Did she know she wasn't allowed to vote? Maybe--but it's a he said, she said.<BR/><BR/>As for the "vouching for," that's the one part of the law I've been advocating to change all along. And her signing on two cards for one voter--well, we've seen <A HREF="http://brewcitybrawler.typepad.com/brew_city_brawler/2007/04/biskupic_pursue.html" REL="nofollow">how that happens</A> before.<BR/><BR/>The problem, fellas, is that <I>this</I> is the kind of case that Republicans have been using to claim that there is rampant organized voter fraud on the part of everyone from DPW to ACORN to ASPCA or something. <I>This</I> is the kind of case that Republicans point to in order to support restrictive photo ID laws. (Note that an ID wouldn't have stopped her. She never claimed to be someone she was not.)<BR/><BR/>If <I>this</I> is your evidence, you have a sorry, sorry case.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I'll give you $50 if you can find where I said there were no fraudulent votes inn 2004.Jay Bullockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18303687624670151530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-89643240885417684572007-05-21T12:54:00.000-05:002007-05-21T12:54:00.000-05:00Dad, you'll NEVER convince Jay that there really w...Dad, you'll NEVER convince Jay that there really was voter fraud.
