(Daily Caller) Cemeteries in Pennsylvania may be hotbeds of political activity in the next few days because the zombie group ACORN is deeply involved in congressional races in the state.
The undead group is working to help get Pennsylvania Senate candidate Joe Sestak and other Democratic hopefuls in the Keystone State across the finish line in the Nov. 2 congressional elections. That means that dead people and cartoon characters like Mickey Mouse stand a good chance of participating in the electoral process this year as they always do when election fraud-prone ACORN is involved.
As with all things ACORN, the story is complicated.
Although ACORN, short for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, announced earlier this year that it planned to dissolve its national structure on April Fools Day, it continues to operate, even soliciting new funding from donors.
Its voter mobilization subsidiary, Project Vote, continues to operate out of ACORNs Washington, D.C. office where it is currently conducting a nationwide get-out-the-vote (GOTV) drive that could have a budget of $15 million or more. ACORN historian John Atlas and ACORN executive Nathan Henderson-James both say ACORN will reemerge with a new organizational structure after the election.
To stay out of the media spotlight this year, ACORN converted its Pennsylvania chapter into two new nonprofit corporations.
The two tax-exempt affiliates are Pennsylvania Neighborhoods for Social Justice (PNSJ) and Action United. Both nonprofits filed their incorporation documents in January. According to those documents, both organizations operate out of ACORNs offices at 846 North Broad Street in Philadelphia. ACORN veterans are heavily involved in both groups.
The two new ACORN groups have been very active in the current election cycle.
