Dane County Doubles Down on Felon Fraud



Dane County Sheriff Dave Mahoney stands behind the memo distributed by Lt. Mark Twombly to deputies and staff at the Dane County Jail instructing them to give absentee ballots to prisoners, including felons for whom it is illegal to vote:


 


“It is going to be up to their polling location to research whether they are allowed to vote based on their criminal record, not the DCSO,” Twombly wrote in the memo.


 


When asked about the memo, Mahoney told a leftwing Madison talk show host that he was not going to back down on the instructions. Instead of admitting that his office was poised to potentially facilitate violations of state election law, Mahoney angrily lashed out at the deputy who leaked the memo…


 


Sheriff Mahoney has ties to the Democratic establishment in Wisconsin. A former labor union boss, Mahoney refused to arrest protesters at the state capitol when they harassed and threatened Republican lawmakers and staff…

“Democrats Target Anti-Voter Fraud Group”

“Democrats Voter Fraud Group”

The headline of the story at Red Alert Politics says it all doesn’t it?  The dishonest reporting in places like the Nation by Brentin Mock are almost as unseemly as a government official threatening someone with a criminal investigation for political purposes.  Dishonest?

Yes, dishonest.  For example, Mock routinely reports that Tea Party election observers attempt to challenge voters.  Nonsense.  Untrue.  Produce one.  But if people like Mock want to scare their voters into thinking they will be challenged at the polls, have at it.  Reduce your own turnout with fairy tales.   But don’t defame law abiding people who are merely exercising their rights to observe the elections. 

Mock and others then falsely claim that Tea Party poll observers plan to “target” minority areas.  More nonsense.  More lies.  This is commonly referred to as race baiting.  Mock actually goes so far as to question whether white poll observers should be in polling places where African Americans are voting.  This is the most base form of racialism: advocacy of cultural segregation between peoples.  Again, if some in the left want to reduce their own turnout by scaring minority voters with fairy tales, then the onus is on them for causing the reduced turnout. 

Then Mock and others falsely claim that Tea Party observers are intentionally seeking to disenfranchise minorities – without a shred of evidence.  Who need evidence?  A reactionary claim of racism is always the 1st down call by some. 

The more Mock and his band of hucksters instill fear in the minority community, the less likely their candidate will win.  We have the perverse situation where law abiding citizens are exercising rights under state and federal law, the hucksters don’t like it, and they decide to scare their own community from voting.  This approach is so short sighted, illogical and racially corrupt that it almost seems like a  Republican scheme:
Step One: invent false claims that Tea Party groups are targeting minorities even though they are merely exercising rights under federal and state law.

Step Two: widely publicize in the far-left media a phony plot to disenfranchise minority voters and push this narrative as hard as possible to minority communities.

Step Three: enlist the help of Congressmen (one who shamefully saw nothing wrong with the Fast and Furious scandal)  to send threatening letters to law abiding private citizens like something out of a third world shake down.  Further stoke fears of the minority community because a respected leader is on the false accusation bandwagon.

Step Four: Enjoy depressed Democrat turnout.

Be careful what you wish for.

That a United States Congressman like Elijah Cummings have joined up with this dishonest and poorly calculated campaign makes the story all the more sad.  The civil rights movement used to be about everyone disregarding race.  But these days, race has become the oxygen of politics for some.

The hysteria almost reads like a Republican dream of Democrats eating their own. But when race is used like Mock and others have used it, it isn’t worth the price, even their phony hysteria results in a GOP victory.
