Voter fraud in Colorado.

“That is not even like lying or something, if someone throws out a ballot, like if you want to fill it out you should do it.”

He has a conversation with Greenpeace employee Christina Topping, and suggests he might have access to unused ballots from people who have recently moved out of college fraternity houses. “I mean it is putting the votes to good use,” she responds. “So really, truly, like yeah, that is awesome.”


That's like calling votes bricks or shoes or paperclips. They aren't items. They're people's votes. Jesus.

According to Mother Jones, he struck out a lot in Colorado in attempting to get campaigns and whatnot on tape. I like O'Keefe, but I'm interested to see whether this is impactful or not. We all know we could get plenty of low level staffers on both sides to promote voter fraud.

O'Keefe has hyped this a lot, so I hope it's not a typical "Kelly File EXPLOSIVE EXCLUSIVE" type of dud.

Election workers are supposed to compare signatures on registration records with signed ballots. But if a person has a “witness” who signs the ballot on the witness line, then the signatures do not have to match and the vote is counted.


Jesus, who developed this system?

Last December, New York City’s Department of Investigation detailed how its undercover agents claimed at 63 polling places to be individuals who were in fact dead, had moved out of town, or who were in jail. In 61 instances, or 97 percent of the time, they were allowed to vote. (To avoid skewing results, they voted only for nonexistent write-in candidates.) How did the city’s Board of Elections respond? Did it immediately probe and reform their sloppy procedures? Not at all. It instead demanded that the investigators be prosecuted.



Wow, it's so far gone.....better to just let it all collapse.

I saw this thread title and immediately thought Ken O'Keefe abandoned the run again.

The few Iowa fans here will appreciate that.

Liberals don't care.

You might want to put Colorado voter fraud in the thread title.

Some people don't know who O'Keefe is.

True story: my parents live in CO and i last did in 1999.

Spring 2013 I get a letter from EBR saying I'm registered in 2 states. Odd. So I look into it and I was "registered" just before 2012 election online and "voted" in the election there.

I wrote a letter, all this shite to clear if up. Well my mail ballot arrived a week ago and my parents' are still waiting for theirs. Great fricking system they got.

One takeaway is Eilene Lamb's office is on top of their game.

Love this guy... he tells a Greenpeace worker that he and his buddies are going fishing around trash bins looking for early voting ballots and they'll fill them in and tells her we don't want to let those ballots go to waste do we? When the campaign worker laughs and agrees... AHA! He found evidence of an attempt at voter fraud! His own!

:lol:

Dam...another example of the rights inability to correct a obviously flawed system. There is no doubt that there is rampant voter fraud going on in the US, all or most of which is done by Democrats....and since the right has been unable, for 50 or more years, to overcome the obvious left leaning media bias in the US y'all have not been able to make your case. Again, with such blatant incompetence how do y'all propose to govern????

This is basic shite and y'all can't fix it. Y'all can whine about it but you can't make your case in the court of public opinion....and y'all want to lead?????

O'Keefe has carved out a cool little niche - Some of his videos are really lame like the Hollywood fundraiser one earlier this year but the border crossing was legit.
