There are a couple of things to be said here, first when it comes to stealing elections, please don't assume that all republicans march in lock step with one another with regards to Acorn. Yes, Acorn is a rotton to the core and it's whole mission is to subvert the election process. No doubt the very same people who were up in arms over this same issue, making films about it, protesting over it, are no silent and looking the other way when it comes to the deeds of this group. What I submit is that many lack the courage of their convictions regardless of party to single out ANY group that would subvert or attempt to subvert the election process. Having said that I do not think the President gained the White House by the deeds of this dishonorable organization and as such like the last one, should be accorded at the very least some air of legitimacy. While I disagree with the President on pretty much all his policies, the fact that he is President is not one of them. So let's not go and start saying all republicans think this, or all republicans thing that shall we? As I don't normally try to say all democrats are (fill in the blank).
Little on the Acorn thing;
2006 Eight ACORN employees in St. Louis were indicted on federal election fraud charges. Each of the eight faces up to five years in prison for forging signatures and submitting false information.
NM 2008 Prosecutors are investigating more than 1,100 ACORN-submitted voter registration cards after a county clerk found them to be fraudulent. Many of the cards included duplicate names and slightly altered personal information.
NV 2009 Nevada authorities indicted ACORN on 26 counts of voter registration fraud and 13 counts of illegally compensating canvassers. ACORN provided a bonus compensation program called “Blackjack” or “21+” for any canvasser who registered more than 20 voters per shift, which is illegal under Nevada law.
2004 A grand jury indicted a Columbus ACORN worker for submitting a false signature and false voter registration form. In Franklin County, two ACORN workers submitted what the director of the board of election supervisors called “blatantly false” forms. In Cuyahoga County, ACORN and its affiliate Project Vote submitted registration cards that had the highest rate of errors for any voter registration group.
PA 2009 Seven ACORN workers in the Pittsburgh area were indicted for submitting falsified voter registration forms. Six of the seven were also indicted for registering voters under an illegal quota system.
