Advance Indiana: More Vote Fraud Convictions In East Chicago
2009
Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Latoya Lewis pled guilty on October 12, 2009 on charges of voter registration fraud.
Lewis, who was working for ACORN when she committed the acts in 2008 that led to her guilty plea, said she was trying to "meet her quota as a paid registrar".
2008
In Orange County, Florida, ACORN staffers submitted multiple, duplicate registrations on behalf of six separate voters over this summer. One individual had 21 duplicate applications. Election Supervisor Bill Cowles and his staff protested, noting in a June memo that ACORN had been submitting sloppy forms as well.
The Michigan Secretary of State office told the Detroit Free Press that
ACORN had been submitting a sizeable number of duplicate and fraudulent applications to vote.
In Lake County, Indiana, election officials discovered "dozens of ACORN-delivered registration forms they believe contain inaccurate voter information, including one in which a dead man from Gary was listed as the applicant."
The applications were not processed.
In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Sean Cairncross, the Republican Party's chief lawyer said that ACORN is "engaged in systematic fraud and attempts to undermine our electoral system". This was in the wake of a report that had hired at least seven felons as voter registration workers in the city. As of early October, Milwaukee election officials have referred to the Milwaukee County district attorneyÂ’s office 49 cases of people who submitted potentially fraudulent registration cards.
An ACORN employee in West Reading, Pennsylvania, was sentenced to up to 23 months in prison for identity theft and tampering with records. A second ACORN worker pleaded not guilty to the same charges and is free on $10,000 bail
ACORN and voter registration fraud - Ballotpedia
There's no evidence of any such democracy-destroying fraud.
Here's what is true: In recent years, ACORN employees have been investigated multiple times for voter registration fraud. ACORN workers have been convicted of submitting false voter registration forms in Colorado Springs in 2005, Kansas City, Mo., in 2006 and King County, Wash., in 2007. ACORN's Las Vegas office was raided by a state criminal investigator on Oct. 7, 2008. ACORN workers are also the subjects of ongoing investigations in Wisconsin, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indiana. The Indiana investigation started in early October and may involve thousands of fraudulent registration forms.

But so far ACORN itself has not been officially charged with any fraud. Aside from the heated charges and counter-charges,

So let me see if I understand this, a company or organization now has no responsibility for the actions of it's employee's based on the fact that it has yet to be convicted. So given this new standard if GM designs a car that explodes and kills people it's the employee's fault now and GM has no responsibility, I see, how the new standard is applied. The FACTS are ACORN or whatever they have chosen to call themselves now, has a LONG history of voter fraud cases and CONVICTIONS involving it's employee's and any LEXUS/NEXUS search will show the same as well as countless civil actions that Acorn has been involved in. So spare me this retro-active remake of recent history.
