Voter Fraud in Ohio

Actual Voter Fraud has been found in Ohio

It's funny, because when conservatives would complain about ACORN's registration fraud scheme, liberals would reply with lame excuses like: "Registration fraud is not the same as voting fraud - do you really think Mickey Mouse is going to show up on election day and try to vote?"

Well, now there are 18 proven cases of voter fraud in Ohio - all votes cast in support of Barack Obama. 13 were from campaign staffers from out of state who registered and voted illegally in Ohio. Another 5 were from a college group who were also from out of state.

Now, 18 votes is not very many. But the problem is twofold. First, we don't know how many fraudulent votes have been cast. Second, the 13 campaign staffers withdrew their own votes - they were not detected by election officials. Which makes one wonder how many staffers are not withdrawing their votes and taking a risk.

This is a problem - maybe it is only 18 votes; maybe it is the tip of the iceberg. Liberals will continue to minimize the issue instead of saying that voter fraud should not happen. We'll see if there is more in the next few days.
