Robert Knight has a piece at the Washington Times that runs rough over voter fraudsters.


“Richardson was previously convicted of threatening to kill a witness in a criminal case against her brother; of stealing; of drunken driving; and of beating someone in a bar fight,” The Cincinnati Enquirer reported. When sentenced for vote fraud, she was unbowed, claiming to be a victim of racism.

Assistant prosecutor Bill Anderson, however, saw it differently: “[She] is an ideologue who was hell-bent on stuffing the ballot box with as many Obama votes as possible.”

So, you have a problem with that? The Rev. Al Sharpton doesn’t. He and Ohio Democrats hailed Ms. Richardson at a March 20 rally in Cincinnati following her release after serving eight months of her five-year term for voter fraud.

“There is a growing toxic movement in some corners of the country that are perfectly willing to accept criminal acts in the election and furtherance of a broader progressive agenda,” former Justice Department Voting Section attorney J. Christian Adams said during a March 25 interview on “The Steve Malzberg Show” on Newsmax TV.

“There is this corrupt attitude that is beginning to gain total acceptance in some corners of government and academia, that accepts criminality in American elections in the name of payback time.”

Mr. Adams was among Justice Department staff during the Bush administration who investigated vote fraud and intimidation in Mississippi, where the white power structure oppressed black citizens for decades, followed by corrupt, racist black political machines.

In his book “Injustice: Exposing the Racial Agenda of the Obama Justice Department,” Mr. Adams recalls Democratic operatives in Noxubee County who “visited black voters who had requested absentee ballots on the day the ballot arrived in the mail. Sometimes the operatives snatched the ballot out of the mailbox before the voter knew it arrived. Other times, ballots were sent to black residents who hadn’t even requested them .” At the polls, “assistors” hounded people, telling them how to vote.

Last fall, Mr. Adams and his former Voting Section boss, Christopher Coates, won two consent decrees on behalf of the American Civil Rights Union from two Mississippi counties — Walthall and Jefferson Davis — in the first privately filed lawsuits under the National Voter Registration Act. The counties, which have more registered voters than eligible residents, agreed to clean up their rolls. The American Civil Rights Union has since filed similar suits in two Texas counties — Terrell and Zavala.

My hit on Fox News this week to talk about the Democrats taking bribes to vote no on Voter ID.

 Daily Caller.  Something else I suspect Mr. Sensenbrenner doesn’t know is in his own bill.

Breitbart Texas.  “most of the candidates’ complaints regarding voting machines were largely unspecific. One letter, however, claimed “individual voters have indicated that in casting their vote using Hidalgo County’s voting machines, their vote for a particular candidate was changed by the voting machine; this happened repeatedly throughout the county.”

“Others have complained that the total votes reported by the machines exceeded the total of voters that actually voted,” a complaint letter obtained by Breitbart Texas said.”

Congratulations to the Northern Illinois School of Law Federalist Society Chapter for the most creative promotional piece for any of my law school speeches.  This will be my 44th address at a law school and hands down the best poster.  The event is April 10 in the evening. Details to follow.

Chris Coates and I have filed a complaint in the United States District Court in Texas against a county with more registered voters than people alive on behalf of the American Civil Rights Union.  Complaint is here. 

A hero of the speech regulation crowd has been revealed as a gun runner, trafficker and indicted Senator.  California Democrat Leland Yee was charged with multiple federal counts of gun running, trafficking and corruption.  Yee was a champion of the speech regulators in California and opponent of Citizens United.  One sample:

Two new bills propose ways to give voters greater insights into the flood of political money from often obscure nonprofit organizations. SB 3, by Sens. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, and Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, would require nonprofit groups that donate $100,000 or more in a year to political campaigns to identify the source of that funding. AB 45, by Assemblyman Roger Dickinson, D-Sacramento, would require politically active nonprofit organizations to disclose donors who in the six months before an election have contributed at least $50,000.

The FBI is dumping the Southern Poverty Law Center as a resource.  I recall times when some in the Voting Section at DOJ took SPLC very seriously and emailed around the “hate map” to the entire Section to see and use. 

Voters here need Federal protection from Jim Crow-style ballot-box barriers because The Vote in Wisconsin has been willfully compromised.

The latest data from Tennessee about the state’s experience with its new photographic voter identification law show that this requirement has done nothing to suppress voter turnout throughout the state. In fact, overall turnout in Tennessee was slightly higher, and black voters turned out at higher rates than white voters in the first election held after the law became effective.  The claims made by voter ID opponents that the law would prevent minorities and other Tennesseans from being able to vote have been shown to be untrue.

…Multiple courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court and the Tennessee Supreme Court, have found voter ID laws constitutional and not a burden on voters. As the Tennessee legislature concluded, voter ID is simply a common-sense reform that is needed to protect the security of elections. The goals of voter ID are simple: to fight against voter fraud, to maintain public confidence in the democratic process, and to ensure the legitimacy of elections in America.
