You get cheating all over the place by Acorn, if the Obama campaign will be such a landslide, why do they have a need to lie and cheat?

As I noted in another post- if there's so much "cheating" going on, why isn't anything being done about it? There are state and federal agencies responsible for the voting process, and yet they can't find these illegal activities that the media can???

I don't know anything about the so-called "cheating", but I don't think it WILL be a "landslide" - it will be close.

Agree. Certainly if thousands of people are each registering to vote thousands of time, it would be very easy to substantiate. All I hear is allegations.

Yup, it can't be said enough times. If you have evidence of criminal activity, contact the police. Or the FBI. Or some other law enforcement agency that can actually do something about it.

I see a lot of allegations, but since nobody thinks their "evidence" is worth handing over to the police, the obvious conclusion is that it's all a bunch of bull.

Maybe you should ask the person that said this

Maybe he will weigh in on how he plans to commit his voter fraud and cheating.

Why indeed?

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/09/us...us&oref=slogin

"The six swing states seem to be in violation of federal law in two ways. Michigan and Colorado are removing voters from the rolls within 90 days of a federal election, which is not allowed except when voters die, notify the authorities that they have moved out of state, or have been declared unfit to vote.

Indiana, Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio seem to be improperly using Social Security data to verify registration applications for new voters. In addition to the six swing states, three more states appear to be violating federal law. Alabama and Georgia seem to be improperly using Social Security information to screen registration applications from new voters. And Louisiana appears to have removed thousands of voters after the federal deadline for taking such action. Under federal law, election officials are supposed to use the Social Security database to check a registration application only as a last resort, if no record of the applicant is found on state databases, like those for driver’s licenses or identification cards. The requirement exists because using the federal database is less reliable than the state lists, and is more likely to incorrectly flag applications as invalid. Many state officials seem to be using the Social Security lists first.

In three states — Colorado, Louisiana and Michigan — the number of people purged from the election rolls since Aug. 1 far exceeds the number who may have died or relocated during that period. "

More tactics to stop legitimate registered voters from voting on election day. This is likely to happen to THOUSANDS of Americans and apparently this will be the "big issue" of this election.

I'm sure that voter fraud happens in every single election, even though it shouldn't. Again, for all of these people witnessing voter fraud, do something about it. I don't want any president who wins by illegal means that were propagated by his campaign or condoned by him, no one should.

However, my pessimistic theory (with admittedly no facts to back it up) is the allegations are occurring with more force and frequency so the right wing of the Republican party can delegitimize the result before the potential democrat POTUS ever takes office.
