During today's Presidential
Caucus in Minnesota, voters may be surprised to see the ease in which
individuals may register to vote for themselves or others without
identification requirements of any kind.
In advance of the 2012
Presidential Caucus, Project Veritas' investigators visited the Land of
10,000 lakes yesterday and inquired with voter registration officials
if they could register on behalf of others . . .
. . .including the names of
today's NFL star quarterbacks:
Project Veritas Investigator: "Thomas Brady he just
happened to be assaulted in Minnesota so he's going through a lot of
depression so he can't come in to register to vote.
Voter Registration Official: That's
all right . . . if he fills this form out, then he would get on the
list where he would automatically, every election, get one of these
forms in the mail which he would then fill out and mail to us and then
we would send him a ballot.
Project Veritas
Investigator: "Timothy Tebow, he got in a
car accident recently and I don't think he's going to be able
physically to come in to cast a ballot to vote"
Voter Registration Official: He can always absentee vote.
After visiting five
voter-registration offices, Project Veritas' investigators were
provided with dozens of voter-registration applications that simply had
to be mailed back with no identification, notarization, or
other means of verification. [Full]

You will recall that Al Franken eventually won the election by 800-some votes. Later it was discovered that over 1000 ex convicts who were not entitled to vote had in fact registered and voted illegally. How many of those voted Republican, I wonder.

I often wonder why I bother to vote. Of course, this year in Texas, we may not get the districts drawn in time for the entire state to vote.

Voter registration needs to be on a national registry (not state) and be tied to our Social Security numbers. That would stop all this tomfoolery immediately and not cost a fortune.
ReplyDeleteWe all bother to vote because optimism - fortified by a willingness to smite when smiting is necessary - is an American virtue. Wouldn't you agree?
ReplyDeletemary - we have the districts drawn. It is just that the Texas hating Feds don't like our legally drawn districts. They want more minority guaranteed lines.
ReplyDeleteI live in Minnesota. Last time I voted (really everytime), I showed my Military ID. The person at the table said "you don't have to show your ID." I said "Yes I have to, half the voters here are not eligible, and I want to prove that I am eligible." I got a really good snear on that remark.
ReplyDeleteIf voting changed anything they'd have made it illegal years ago.
ReplyDeleteLast time I went to vote [CA] I offered my ID. You'd have thought I offered an cranky rattlesnake.
