Voter Fraud a Way of Life for Wisconsin Democrats

A couple of people come to your door saying they are taking a political survey. One of the questions they ask is, "are you planning on voting." You haven't voted in years, so you truthfully say "no. After you answer that, they ask you if you would send for an absentee ballot, then they give you a self-addressed, stamped envelope. They ask you if you would send your blank absentee ballot to this address when you receive it. What would you do? ~~~~~ You go to vote in the afternoon. You walk up to the poll worker and state your name. The poll worker looks though the list, then gets a puzzled look and asks you for your address. You tell the worker and she tells you that she can't let you vote, because you already voted. Sure enough, when you look at the list, your name has a sticker next to it. What would you do? ~~~~~ Your kids come home from school excited about a field trip they are going on. They tell you that in a few weeks they are going to get to help canvass neighborhoods to help "get out the vote". You think it's great that the school is helping kids look forward to when they get to vote. A group of parents question the school officials about the field trip. The officials reassure the parents that this will have nothing to do with party, candidates or anything else that specific. The kids will just be going door to door talking to people about going to vote. As the big day gets closer, the kids are broken up into groups and the routes are set up. Someone notices that all the neighborhoods to be canvassed are predominantly Democrat, in an area that is split pretty evenly. Some of the neighborhoods aren't even in the school's area. When the school officials are asked about this, they say they didn't notice anything like that, besides, how would they know which neighborhoods are Democrat or Republican. They offer to redo the areas to be more fair... The next day they announce that the field trip is cancelled... citing safety concerns. What would you do? If you lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, you would simply expect it. You would also know that even when federal investigators find out what is going on, the city, county and state leaders will simply ignore it. Welcome to Voter Fraud, Wisconsin Style.

The 2000 election was a disgrace. This is something no one can deny. Both democrats and republicans behaved badly. We just do not have all the details.

With the 2000 election, we know one thing for sure, Gore didn't win any of the "recounts" in Florida. The problem is, we don't really know how many of the votes in any other county in the US were on the up and up.

It is not just in Wisconsin. Voter fraud is the unspoken scandal in the USA. I am convinced it is widespread. Neither party appreciates or cares how honest electoral competition strengthens the country. Each party only wants to win. No matter what. No matter how. So, you don't think so? Let me see if I can convince you with and example. Anyone remember the "hanging chads" or "dimpled chads" from the 2000 presidential election and all the supposed republican voter fraud in Florida? There was an investigative reporter who thought that seemed mighty strange that a "chad" might "hang" or become "dimpled" after being pushed out with a stylus. So, he tried to reproduce the effect by taking a single ballot and pushing on a selection so as to delibrately create a "hanging chad" or "dimpled chad" . He could not do it. Where did the "hanging chads" or "dimpled chads" come from then? He found he could easily make "hanging chads" or "dimpled chads" by taking a stack of carefully alligned ballots and pressing on a selection as you would if you were trying to illegally vote every ballot in the stack. This is the only way to create "hanging chads" or "dimpled chads" . The mere fact "hanging chads" or "dimpled chads" existed is proof of voter fraud. Why was no one prosecuted? Both parties were so deeply involved in voter fraud that each was afraid to cast the first stone in court. Sure, in speeches, the media, and in gossip there was a lot of talk, but in court people would be under oath and both sides knew not to go there. I'm afraid voter fraud is not just in Wisconsin.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that it only happens in Wisconsin. I was just citing things that are going on here. I have lived in 11 states and have yet to see a fraud free one. However, this is the first state where I have seen it done so openly. I mean, door to door? But it's like speeding on I43 between Milwaukee and Sheboygan. Everyone knows that the cops won't pull you over until you hit 80... so traffic flows at a comfortable 78mph. In other words, they know they can get away with anything, so they don't even bother trying to hide it anymore.

Yup, the laws are on the books, but it takes prosecuters and elected officials who are willing to take it seriously. In Milwaukee, federal investigators found over 500 counts of voter fraud. King Doyle denied the counts were credible and the County DA said there was "insufficient evidence". A local talk show host verified over 1500 addresses on voter registrations that weren't residences. Some were vacant lots, parks and in one case... Lake Michigan.

I think in a lot cases the procesuters, district attorneys, and elected officals don't want to bring charges against their friends.

With all the charges and counter charges of voter fraud the only conviction I heard of was in Milwaukee where a group of Democratics (including Children of Democratic leaders and representitives) who slashed the tires of vans rented b the Republicians. The vans were to be used to transport people to the polls to vote. With all the charges made the only one to stick found Democratics Guilty.

Yup, and the charges on that one was just vandalism, even though the vandals were paid by the Kerry Campaign.

Whoa! We have had some publicity about voter fraud in Ohio. I don't think it was so bold, however. Except that one of the people running for State office was the person who was in charge of managing the election! The use of electronic voting has been controversial. And there weren't enough booths for the precincts of the opposing party from the candidate noted above, so that many people did not get to vote because they were still in line when the polls closed. They have been unable to prove any fraud.

Yeah, there is NOTHING good about those voting machines. I love technology, but nothing has shown me that technology is any better than a simple mark on a piece of paper next to a name.

I've had enough computer glitches and crashes and lost files personally to not trust the electronic voting. Until my computer experience is problem-free, why should I believe the government's will be any better?
