Democrats Courting the Illegal Felon Vote in Dane County?



“Dane County Voter Fraud?“  A Dane County Deputy Sheriff reports,

Recently Deputies and jail staff at the Dane County Jail were instructed to disregard inmates’ felony statuses when they requested voter absentee ballots… In my opinion, this is causing us to be complicit in the crime. But that’s okay in Dane County, where even the inmates support the democrats in large numbers. Additionally, verifying that an inmate is a felon would take seconds.  There is no logical reason that I can find to support the following instructions.




Felons voting in Wisconsin is nothing new.  As Media Trackers reported in 2011:


 


In the 2000 general election, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that as many as 361 felons voted.  A 2004 Milwaukee Police Department report detailed the ease that felons were able to vote due to the same-day voter registration system. 


 


“The state of Wisconsin precluded any pre-screening for ineligible, felon voters” the report notes.  The investigation uncovered 220 ineligible felons who voted in the 2004 general election…
 



Nine people have been charged with “voting by a disqualified person” in connection to the 2008 general election. Of these, six have been convicted, and three others have yet to be scheduled for trial…


 


Felons can and do vote in Wisconsin, regardless of what the law states.  Every ineligible felon vote disenfranchises the constitutional rights of a law-abiding citizen of Wisconsin. The system as is provides for this disenfranchisement in order to increase turnout. But what good is voter turnout if the election is not free, fair, and legal?


Massachusetts update: “Senator Brown blasts (Secretary of State) Galvin over military voting rights”

The saga continues in Massachusetts.  Despite mounting evidence of a failure, Secretary of the State William Galvin still maintains the concerns are a “political stunt.”  Actually, the facts may eventually show that Galvin may be the one pulling the wool over people’s eyes with the denial of simple facts on the timing of ballot mailings at the expense of valid military and overseas civilian voters.  Has he lawyered up or is he simply in that politician denial mode. Ironically, according to Wikipedia, the Secretary of the Commonwealth is the principle public information officer of Massachusetts. In the spirit of informing the public, there should be a press conference immediately to dispel any more rumors and put all the facts on the table.



excerpt: Incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Scott Brown is
threatening legal action against Secretary of State William Galvin if he
discovers the state isn’t complying with a federal law that mandates
that the voting rights of all military personnel serving overseas are
met.

That deadline fell on Sept. 22, a Saturday,
meaning Galvin’s office was required by law to deliver the ballots to
all of the state’s 351 town and city clerks by the end of the day. A survey This entry was posted in Uncategorized on by .

Alabama redistricted maps for state legislature precleared by DOJ

The U.S. Department of Justice has given preclearance to new legislative districts for use in the 2014 elections.  The
decision was a victory for legislative Republicans who were drawing
their first lines as majority party. However, the plan still faces a
lawsuit from African-American lawmakers who claim the districts dilute
the voting influence of minorities. …Democrats have complained the new lines pack African-American voters
into the existing minority districts. White districts would  have
fewer minority voters, which along with other boundary changes, would
favor the election of Republicans, Democrats complained.

“I’ve
never seen such a racially gerrymandered plan as this one,” Senate
Minority Leader Roger Bedford, D-Russellville, said this afternoon.

“They are trying to make white Democrats extinct. They are packing the black districts,” Bedford said.

SOS Gessler “Left doesn’t care about voter fraud”

That at the Denver Post and more:

Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler
told a conservative audience Thursday that his critics really don’t
care about voter fraud and are “willing to lie” and “play the racism
card.”

Gessler, a Republican, made his comments during a panel discussion
Thursday titled, “Stealing Elections: What the Left Doesn’t Want You to
Know About Voter Fraud,” held at a gathering of the Conservative
Political Action Conference in Denver


and:

“They (the
left) don’t care if they (would-be voters) are non-citizens,” he told
hundreds in the audience. “They’ll register them to vote, and if that
noncitizen registers and then votes, they suffer serious consequences —
criminal prosecution, loss of the ability to ever become a citizen —
but the voter registration drive never suffers any of those
consequences.

“True the Vote to Observe Polls”

 Providence Rhode Island Journal.

“Two people voted in federal elections in both Rhode Island and Florida during national elections, one in 2008 and one in 2010, according to a “comprehensive cross-reference process,” said True the Vote spokesman Logan Church-well.

Chris Barnett, a spokesman for Rhode Island Secretary of State A. Ralph Mollis, said Wednesday, “True the Vote has contacted us with its concerns. Our legal counsel has been in discussions for a good portion of the day with the assistant legal counsel for Florida’s secretary of state.”
