ABSOLUTELY NO VOTER FRAUD"Here’s the tougher question:
How many people voted illegally in other, fraudulent ways?
How many voted as one of the many fake names registered in the repeated and well-covered registration scandals of last year?
How many took advantage of the well-known fact that if you falsely register someone who’s dead or in prison -- which volunteers with the ACORN criminal enterprise did in Wisconsin last fall -- and you show up at a polling place to vote under that name, no one will ask you for any identification that could expose the fraud?
No such fraud took place, insist those who say vote fraud isn’t a problem (these, generally, would be people on the same political page as ACORN, uncoincidentally).
How do they know? They just know. They saw nothing, ergo . . .
Well, there was fraud, as the Milwaukee Police reported.
But more to the point:
If, despite similar assurances that our porous voting system nonetheless suffered no fraudulent voting by felons, we learn only now that about 200 felons voted undetected, what possible belief can anyone have that no one pulled off a much harder-to-detect fraud, especially after so much registration fraud was uncovered?
Answer: No such belief is sustainable other than by sheer, politically motivated wish that such vote fraud remain viable and useful."
