Voter Fraud: “You don’t know how often it goes on if you don’t look.”



Philadelphia City Commissioner Al Schmidt looked.  And found seven distinct types of “irregular” and fraudulent voting, detailed in his report “Voting Irregularities in Philadelphia County, 2012 Primary Election.”


 


Questioned by NewsWorks, Schmidt, who campaigned on a promise of election transparency and reform, concluded:


 


“There are already plenty of laws on the books addressing voter fraud. You don’t need a new law to say you can’t vote twice. There are few prosecutions because it’s very, very difficult to prove, and nobody looked before. You don’t know how often it goes on if you don’t look.”

“Eric Holder’s Keystone State Voter ID Shakedown”

PJ Media Rule of Law:

“This letter was a highly irregular and purely partisan exercise designed to stoke Obama’s electoral base in Philadelphia. It is also designed to placate the civil rights industry which has quietly simmered about the lack of enforcement of the Voting Rights Act to help minorities over the last three years. (See, Wade Henderson – Cat Got Your Tongue?) . . .

Note that Assistant Attorney General Tom Perez signed the letter. Normally, when I worked on cases involving 42 U.S.C. 1974, either the trial lawyer or Section Chief would sign the letter. It may be that Chris Herren, the current Section Chief, would do neither what the career partisans below him wanted, nor what the political gangsters above him wanted. Internal dissent may be afoot, and with good reason.”
