Phony GOP voter forms prompt state investigation

SACRAMENTO -
The secretary of state's office said Friday that it would investigate
allegations that signature gatherers paid to sign up voters for the
California Republican Party submitted registration forms containing
fake names.
"If credible evidence of wrongdoing is found, we will work with local
law enforcement to vigorously prosecute to the fullest extent of the
law," Secretary of State Bruce McPherson said in a statement.
McPherson announced his investigation after the GOP said a routine
screening of registration forms yielded some "questionable patterns."
"Together with the vendor, we figured out some kind of fraud was being
perpetrated," said party spokesman Patrick Dorinson, referring to the
party's principal, Southern California-based voter-registration firm,
California Grassroots Mobilization.
The internal investigation found that several voter-registration
workers from an unidentified Southern California subcontractor had
created fake individuals in registration documents they submitted to
party headquarters two weeks ago.
The subcontractor has since been fired, Dorinson said.
He would not say exactly how many signature gatherers were implicated,
only that it was "more than a couple and less than 15."
The party submitted its findings to McPherson on Thursday.
The latest investigation comes six months after San Bernardino County
prosecutors in March announced an investigation into more than 3,000
apparently fraudulent voter registration cards submitted to the state
GOP.
In April, McPherson and California Attorney General Bill Lockyer
announced a related inquiry into allegations of voter registration
fraud in Riverside and Orange counties.

That's what these politicians _always_ say and it's _always_ a lie.
Appease the proletariat for an hour and they'll forget that their
government does nothing but take their taxes.

Maybe...
Though it is fraud it isn't a problem until the people claiming to be
the fraud voter shows up to vote... Does anyone know why the fake names
appeared? Was it $ per voter registered? If that's the case, $ and not
hijacking the election was the purpose behind it...

Well, yeah.
Tell that to Rush. He plead guilty to it and has yet to see the insides
of a jail. I for one am not holding my breath but that does make Rush a
felon, right?
