~ in the past we have stated our skepticism of the usefulness of the electoral process in our representative democracy. we give one of the corporations a chance that it can overcome a more dangerous corporation. if there is any doubt that the corrupt thugs in the republican party will relinquish power honourably, quietly, or peacefully, take a look at voter fraud, silver state style:
Clark County Election Dept.
(Oct. 12) — Employees of a private voter registration company allege that hundreds, perhaps thousands of voters who may think they are registered will be rudely surprised on election day. The company claims hundreds of registration forms were thrown in the trash.
Anyone who has recently registered or re-registered to vote outside a mall or grocery store or even government building may be affected.
The I-Team has obtained information about an alleged widespread pattern of potential registration fraud aimed at democrats. Thee focus of the story is a private registration company called Voters Outreach of America, AKA America Votes.
The out-of-state firm has been in Las Vegas for the past few months, registering voters. It employed up to 300 part-time workers and collected hundreds of registrations per day, but former employees of the company say that Voters Outreach of America only wanted Republican registrations.
Two former workers say they personally witnessed company supervisors rip up and trash registration forms signed by Democrats.
“We caught her taking Democrats out of my pile, handed them to her assistant and he ripped them up right in front of us. I grabbed some of them out of the garbage and she tells her assistant to get those from me,” said Eric Russell, former Voters Outreach employee. klas-tv.com
the ‘Voters Outreach of America’ is currently working in oregon, so any of our readers there should find their voter drives and encourage people to find someplace more trustworthy to register to vote and to watch ‘Voters Outreach’ to make sure that their windows aren’t smashed and their vans do not somehow burst into flames.
