The Latest From Project Veritas' Voter Fraud Investigation

This time in North Carolina.

And yes, the Obama Administration still opposes state efforts to require voter identification.

Voter Fraud Investigation: Young Man Offered to Vote With Holder's Ballot

James O'Keefe's Project Veritas continues.  Breitbart.com reports that O'Keefe:

demonstrates why Holder should stop attacking voter ID laws--by walking into Holder’s voting precinct and showing the world that anyone can obtain Eric Holder’s primary ballot. Literally.

The video shows a young man entering a Washington, DC polling place at 3401 Nebraska Avenue, NW, on primary day of this year--April 3, 2012--and giving Holder’s name and address. The poll worker promptly offers the young man Holder’s ballot to vote.

The young man then suggests that he should show his ID; the poll worker, in compliance with DC law, states: “You don’t need it. It’s all right. As long as you’re in here, you’re on our list, and that’s who you say you are, you’re okay.”

More here on why we need voter ID laws now.

The Obama/Holder DOJ - Racists or Hypocrites?

It seems it would have to be one or the other when one considers that, as Hot Air reports:

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder is currently blocking implementation of voter ID laws in South Carolina and Texas, claiming such measures are “unnecessary,” discriminatory and would make it harder for minorities to vote.

But if you’re planning to visit Holder’s office in Washington, D.C., you better bring a photo ID. The Department of Justice has two armed guards stationed outside its headquarters to check IDs of anyone who wants to enter — employees and visitors . . . .

“The Obama-Holder Department of Justice has launched an all-out war on voter ID and other measures,” former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell said upon launching a new initiative called Protect Your Vote. “Although Holder’s actions are purported to prevent African-Americans from being disenfranchised, in reality they serve as a crass political attempt to ensure his boss gets re-elected this year.”

Liberals have long trotted out false arguments about voter ID laws, claiming they suppress the vote among those individuals who do not have photo identification. But a 2008 U.S. Supreme Court case upholding Indiana’s voter ID law revealed there was no such hardship. Opponents of the law were unable to produce a single plaintiff who could plausibly claim inability to get a photo ID. In addition, states with longstanding voter ID laws, such as Georgia and Indiana, have actually experienced an increase in turnout of minority voters.

If requiring voters to show photo ID is discriminatory, what about all of those gun control laws?  What about the fact that the pharmacy requires me to show my license everytime I buy my allergy medicine?

Democratic Operative Arrested for Identify Theft in Effort to Frame Republican Secretary of State

John Hinderaker has reported on the story of Zachary Edwards,  an Iowa Democrat, arrested for allegedly trying to steal Iowa Secretary of State (and Republican) Matt Schultz's identity "in order to frame Schultz for "'unethical behavior' . . . ."

As the article explains, the suspect has close ties to both the Iowa Democratic Party and Obama:

Edwards is a former Obama staffer who directed “new media operations” for Obama in five states during the 2008 primaries. Thereafter, he was Obama’s Director of New Media for the State of Iowa. In the Democratic Party’s lexicon, “new media” apparently includes identity theft.

Edwards now works for LINK Strategies, a Democratic consulting firm with extraordinarily close ties to Iowa Democrat Tom Harkin. Its principal, Jeff Link, has served as Harkin’s campaign manager and chief of staff. Link, too, is a former Obama staffer. The LINK Strategies web site says that Jeff Link “served as a media consultant to the Obama for President Campaign, coordinating branding, all paid media and polling in 25 states, including seven battleground states (VA, NC, FL, CO, NM, NV, MT)….”

 The crime also appears to have coincided (been coordinated?) with a campaign by Iowa Democrats to level false accusations against Schultz in an effort to bring him down.  Seems like a story that is worth keeping an eye on.

The Deceased Vote in New Hampshire

Just how easy is it to commit voter fraud?  In New Hampshire at least, the answer appears to be: very easy.  James O'Keefe, best known for exposing ACORN's corruption in the prostitution scandal, demonstrated this yesterday along with his group, Project Veritas.  As he explained it:

On January 10th, Project Veritas reporters walked into New Hampshire Polling Locations during the Presidential Primaries, saying dead people’s names. We stated the name of a dead person we got from the NH obituaries. The names of the deceased were both Registered Republican and Democrats And in almost every case, saying a dead person’s name, we were handed a ballot to cast a vote. We used no misrepresentation and no false pretenses. in fact, in almost every case, we insisted we show ID and they insisted that we vote without showing ID.

Meanwhile, the Obama administration is doing what it can to block states attempting to take measures that would prevent voter fraud.  If the Republicans are going to win in November, they are going to have to secure a big enough lead to get them outside the "margin of fraud."  Remember every vote counts (apparently even those of the deceased).
