We have the beginnings of a record of fraud and denial, obscured by the Milwaukee Election Commission’s incompetence. We’re told more than 200 felons illegally voted. We’re told more than 100 people either used fake names or voted twice. We’re told there were 65 phony registrations. And finally, the City of Milwaukee still cannot account for more than 4500 more votes than actual voters counted.
Despite the clear effect requiring voter id would have on these issues, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel editors see it as just a little fraud, not crossing the threshold requiring correction by the voter id bill.
The Democrats and their supporters will continue to deny fraud, belittle fraud and, when they’re forced, offer weak alternatives to correct the fraud. After all, the fraud is in their best interest and they can defend the fraud by playing the “disenfranchisement” card for minorities and the elderly. What could be better than scaring minorities and the elderly, and getting to stuff ballot boxes in the process?
Meanwhile, Governor Doyle just announced, “…the last remaining Department of Corrections inmates held out-of-state have been returned to Wisconsin.” No word if he handed them a voter registration card as they got off the bus.
