All You Need to Know About Voter Fraud

Given the widespread outcry on the right against actually registering voters who aren't, you know, white and rich, this seems like the right comment:



Also check out this article at BradBlog on some real fraud. (It's long, but worth reading.) If you're interested in keeping up with all the voting problems caused by Republicans and electronic voting machines, check out BradBlog.

And this little tidbit from the Arizona Independent. One thing about this last story:

UPDATE: Last week, Rogers told the Associated Press that the Party had hired a private investigator:

Rogers said a private investigator hired by the state Republican Party found Rivera and others like her have Social Security numbers on their voter registration forms that are being used by other people. They may be legitimate voters and could be victims of identity theft.


Thanks to Talking Points Memo for pointing that out, and for linking to us today!


And if there's possible identity theft involved, why is the Republican Party investigating? Isn't that a federal crime? And why is the Republican party investigating these people to start with? I hadn't realize that the GOP was now officially the federal government -- I thought it was still unofficial.
