CLEARLY, THE
PALM BEACH POST CONTINUES TO SUPPORT VOTER FRAUD IN FLORIDA’S ELECTIONS
Recently I purchased a
bottle of wine at Target. The cashier asked for my driver’s license and then
swiped it into the register before allowing the purchase. I could not help but
laugh as I thought; “It would be easier
for an ineligible person to vote illegally in Florida than for a senior citizen
Floridian to buy a bottle of wine at Target!”
Sunday, 6/10/2012,
Randy Schultz, Editor of the Editorial Page of the Palm Beach Post published an
editorial entitled “In Florida, not all
voters are created equal”. I agree, some are legal and others are illegal.
The left whines that voter fraud is rare
and that strict registration rules and ID requirements are not necessary. I say
that even one fraudulent vote is unacceptable because it might cancel out my
legal vote. Shouldn’t every legal voter agree? One would suppose.
Randy Schultz asks, “Suppose, though, that if the Democrats ran
Tallahassee they passed a bill designed to “crack down” on absentee ballot
fraud…. If Democrats did all those things, Republicans would howl…”
I disagree. I believe that the Republicans and Independents
welcome strict voter registration and ID laws for all voting including
absentees.
Schultz believes that
absentee voting is a “Republican thing.”
He states that the GOP encourages absentee voting. That may be true but again
Schultz is wrong. Democrats too love early and absentee voting because it is
easier to cast those votes fraudulently. The Democrat Party -that cannot win on
the issues -relies on ACORN style voter fraud. Groups that attempt to register
illegal immigrants, convicted felons, dead people, fictitious people and who
register legitimate voters multiple times are progressive, leftist
organizations.
Again, Randy Schultz
is wrong about who likes early and absentee voting. This type of voting has
become the favorite target for the progressive’s voter fraud. The following
exposes just a small part of the Democrat Machines scammers and felons working
for progressive groups such as
ACORN.

Below is a link to YouTube that tells the story of a citizen,
Judith Thompson, who lost her constitutional right to vote due to voter fraud
when her absentee ballot was stolen and used to vote illegally:
Would you like this to happen to you? Apparently
Randy Schultz does not mind! Not even one illegal vote is acceptable in my
opinion; one illegal vote cast for my
candidate’s opponent effectively cancels my legal vote and denies me of my
constitutional right to have my vote matter.
If you think these
shenanigans are rare you are wrong. The following is a list of Democrats in
Madison, Fl. Caught committing voter fraud and posted by Redstate.com.
Among the people arrested was the Madison County
Supervisor of Elections, who appears to have known about all of this. The
list of arrests is actually pretty striking:
•
Abra “Tina” Hill Johnson, 43, was charged with 10 counts
of fraud in connection with casting a vote, and two counts of absentee ballots
and voting violations.
•
Her husband Ernest Sinclair Johnson, Jr., 45, was charged
with 11 counts of fraud in connection with casting votes, one count of
corruptly influencing voting, and one count of perjury by false written
declaration.
•
Jada Woods Williams, 34, Madison County Supervisor of
Elections, was charged with 17 counts of neglect of duty and corrupt practices
for allowing the distribution of these absentee ballots, contrary to Florida
state statute.
•
Judy Ann Crumitie, 51, charged with four counts of fraud
in connection with casting a vote, and one count of providing a false report to
law enforcement authorities.
•
Laverne V. Haynes, 57, charged with two counts of fraud in
connection with casting a vote, two counts of perjury by false written
declaration, and one count of providing a false report to law enforcement
authorities.
•
Ora Bell Rivers, 41, charged with seven counts of fraud in
connection with casting a vote, three counts of perjury by false written
declaration, and one count of providing a false report to law enforcement
authorities.
•
Raven Simona Williams, 20, charged with two counts of
fraud in connection with casting a vote, two counts of perjury by false written
declaration, and one count of providing a false report to law enforcement
authorities
•
Shalonda Michaelle Brinson, 36, charged with nine counts
of fraud in connection with casting a vote, and one count of provided a false
report to law enforcement authorities.
Good thing that the FBI doesn’t believe the left’s claim that
voter fraud doesn’t exist.
U.
S. Rep. Tom Rooney recognizes Florida’s dilemma. The following is a letter he
wrote to the corrupt Attorney General, Eric Holder, who is yet another Democrat
proponent of voter fraud and intimidation.
Washington, D.C. –
U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney (FL-16) today sent a letter to Attorney General Eric
Holder demanding that the Department of Justice stop its efforts to block the
state of Florida from verifying the eligibility of registered voters.
“The
Department of Justice under President Obama has become so politicized that it
consistently puts aiding the President’s reelection campaign ahead of upholding
justice and enforcing the rule of law,” Rooney
said. “The Attorney General is now actively working to enable voter fraud
and allow illegal immigrants to cast votes in the state of Florida – this is a
new low, even for this Administration.”

Rightjuris.com
reporter Beth Shaw on 10/27/2010 published the following story on Daytona,
Florida Democrat voter fraud:
Apparently,
Henry and Robinson requested a large number of absentee ballots
for various individuals from the same email address. Ann McFall became more
suspicious of the requests in that they were all for the Daytona Beach City
Commission Zone 5 race. Derrick Henry is the Zone 5 incumbent.
It was
discovered that Henry and Robinson had requested a total of 92 absentee
ballots, apparently in an attempt to help Henry’s re-election chances. Officers searched Henry’s home in September and found absentee
ballot applications, receipts and ballots as well as handbooks on Florida
election laws.
All 92 people whose names had been
used to obtain absentee ballots were interviewed. Some hadn’t lived in the
state or county in years, others didn’t request the ballots but were contacted
by Robinson who ‘helped’ them fill out the ballots. Some were relatives of
Henry and Robinson.

that exist for other people, listed non-existent or commercial addresses, or
were for convicted felons in violation of state and federal election law.
In a letter to ACORN, the State Board of Elections reported that 56%
of the voter registration applications ACORN turned in were ineligible.
Further, a full 35% were not submitted in a timely manner, as required by
law. The State Board of Elections also commented on what appeared to be
evidence of intentional voter fraud. "Additionally,” they wrote,
“information appears to have been altered on some applications where
information given by the applicant in one color ink has been scratched
through and re-entered in another color ink. Any alteration of a voter
registration application is a Class 5 Felony in accordance with § 24.2-1009
of the Code of Virginia."

Randy Schultz, like most corrupt Democrats,
wants little or no voter law enforcement; come one come all! They know that the
ones who don’t play by the rules, feel a sense of entitlement and want
something for nothing are usually Democrats.
Acorn has not gone away, they have simply
changed their names. The following is from Wikipedia:
ACORN affiliated groups
As part of the effort by some chapters to stay
afloat by severing ties with the national organization, California ACORN
changed its name to Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment,[8] New York ACORN renamed itself New
York Communities for Change,[11]
and an offshoot of the ACORN organization called Acorn Housing changed
its name to Affordable Housing Centers of America[115] yet has retained the same tax and employee
identification numbers that it held under its former name.[116]
