“This is a bombshell. We now have undeniable proof that a significant number of fraudulent voters were cast in Democrat primary races for the New Mexico legislature as a result of ACORN’s voter registration fraud."
Press release from the New Mexico GOP:
Fraudulent Votes Cast in New Mexico
Obama’s ACORN Must Be Shut Down Before Election, All Activities Investigated
(Albuquerque, NM) – Public records released in New Mexico today confirm that fraudulent voter registrations are in fact turning into fraudulent votes. ACORN, currently under investigation by the FBI, is now confirmed to be responsible for producing fraudulent voter registrations and illegal votes in New Mexico. An inspection of public records has revealed that illegal votes were cast in New Mexico’s 2008 primary election.
“This is a bombshell. We now have undeniable proof that a significant number of fraudulent voters were cast in Democrat primary races for the New Mexico state legislature as a result of ACORN’s voter registration fraud,” remarked State Representative Justine Fox Young (R-Albuquerque). “No longer can ACORN argue that their phony voter registration forms don’t translate into fraudulent votes. They do and today we can prove it.”
...
“It is safe to say that the number of illegal votes being cast dwarfs the 366 votes that decided the 2000 Presidential election in New Mexico,” said Nina Martinez, Secretary for the Republican Party of New Mexico. “Barack Obama contributed $832,000 to ACORN, organized an ACORN subsidiary, represented them as their attorney, trained some of their members and received ACORN’s endorsement. Obama should withdraw his financial support from ACORN and come clean about what he knows of their activities. Every fraudulent vote cancels out an honest vote. We must ensure the integrity of this year’s election.”
Note that the fraud occurred in the Democratic Primaries-- but so far all we know is that legislative races were effected. The presidential voting occurred on a different day.
But is anyone stupid enough to believe Obama's paid-off Chicago Machine vote fraud outfit was submitting fraudulent votes in a legislative primary, but not on behalf of their own boy?
Apart from the Obamamedia, I mean.
Based upon this thin record, can we start throwing around willy-nilly wild accusations that Obama stole the primary from Hillary?
Yes we can.
No one commits voter fraud to pad a margin of victory.
Goofy Post History:
This started out as a flaming skull, but then lost it when the press release cited appeared only on someone's blog and I couldn't establish it was definitely real. So I changed it to a "claim." No skull.
I searched the PR wires and didn't see it. I went to the New Mexico GOP site and didn't see it.
Finally I got the great idea to search my own email box. I get tons of press releases a day; I never bother to look at most of it. Well, it turns out it was there. It's real. I just never saw it.
The only bad thing is the story's kinda old by now. Powerline's had it since earlier today/yesterday. Still, I'll throw the flaming skull up.
