Does ACORN need to be investigated?
Question by Jeff N: Does ACORN need to be investigated?
You want to know why all of these … liberal organizations oppose photo ID for voting? You’re looking at it. It’s called ACORN. If you are required to have a photo ID, you cannot vote if you don’t have one. Remember the situation in Georgia where they wanted to give everybody a voter ID, and the Jesse Jacksons of the world went down there and raised holy hell, ‘No you can’t do that.’ State of Georgia said okay, we’ll go to their houses, we’ll go to where they live, ’cause Jesse Jackson said they’re afraid to leave their homes…. Jesse Jackson said no. These people cannot stand government agents walking into their house, they won’t trust it, they’ll think they are being spied on. They come up with the most ridiculous explanations to avoid anything with photo ID, and this is why. Can’t cheat. They want to cheat. They can’t win on their own. They couldn’t win very much at all on their own.” [Emphasis Mine]
This may be one of the most urgent appeals we’ve ever sent you.
PLEASE read it carefully and act IMMEDIATELY! The integrity of our nation’s elections in just a few weeks may depend on YOU and thousands more like you who are fed up with Chicago-style election hijacking.
The media — even the liberal media — are reporting massive voter-registration fraud nationwide. And particularly in battleground states like Ohio and Missouri.
Fraud by whom? By ACORN — a gang of left-wing radicals who year after year thumb their noses at election laws and use mafia-style intimidation tactics against those who stand in their way.
CNN’s Drew Griffin reports from Lake County, Indiana:
“ACORN’s in trouble all across the country with it’s a huge voter-registration drive. Actually, 1.3 million new voters registered according to ACORN. The problem is, are they really voters? Up in Lake County, Indiana, they’re finding out they are not. Some 5,000 applications came in, all filled out by ACORN, and there they are. They went through the first 2,100 of them, every single one of them, fraudulent.” On October 13, Fox News interviewed two newly registered young men in Ohio. One said he’d registered with ACORN 15 times! Another said he registered 73 times! Both said the ACORN canvassers pleaded: “If you don’t sign I’ll lose my job.”
The New York Post reported:
“Last July, ACORN settled the largest case of voter fraud in Washington state history. Seven ACORN workers had submitted nearly 2,000 bogus voter forms. According to case records, they flipped through phone books for names to use on the forms, including ‘Leon Spinks,’ ‘Frekkie Magoal’ and ‘Fruto Boy Crispila.’ Three ACORN election hoaxers pleaded guilty in October. A King County prosecutor called ACORN’s criminal sabotage ‘an act of vandalism upon the voter rolls.'”
And The Wall Street Journal reported:
“In Ohio in 2004, a worker for one affiliate was given crack cocaine in exchange for fraudulent registrations that included underage voters, dead voters and pillars of the community named Mary Poppins, Dick Tracy, and Jive Turkey. During a congressional hearing in Ohio in the aftermath of the 2004 election, officials from several counties in the state explained ACORN’s practice of dumping thousands of registration forms in their lap on the submission deadline, even though the forms had been collected months earlier.”
This radical gang says IT’S ALREADY REGISTERED 1.3 MILLION NEW VOTERS for this year!
But wait a minute! Will threats of further prosecutions really stop ACORN? HOW MANY OF THESE 1.3 NEWLY REGISTERED VOTERS WILL VOTE… SIX TIMES… A DOZENS TIMES?
You and I can stop that from happening BEFORE November 4!

ACORN hasn’t done anything wrong. Yes, I said it. ACORN is required by law to submit all registrations, even ones that are obviously fraudulent. It flagged what it thought were bad registrations before sending them in, and Republican election officials reported these anyway as though ACORN tried to sneak them in.
Why are you so outraged about these peanuts? Why don’t you care that across the country the Republicans are trying to steal the vote away from people who DO have the right to vote?
