Voter Fraud

Rep. Bob Inglis

November 3, 2009

I am very concerned about the possibility of voter fraud in any elections in our country now.

How do we really know that voter fraud was not responsible for Al Franken's victory in Minnesota that gives the Democrats a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate? Here is an excerpt from an article in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune:

"Here in Minnesota, ACORN has boasted of playing a major role in the 2008 elections. It claims to have registered 43,000 new voters, which it describes as 75 percent of the state's new registrations. Franken's margin of victory in the Senate race was razor-thin: 312 votes out of about 3 million cast. And Minnesota's laws on proof of voter eligibility are notoriously loose. Did ACORN folks pull some fast ones to help get their favorite son Franken elected — a win that handed Democrats the 60-vote, veto-proof majority that they needed to enact their liberal agenda?

Secretary of State Mark Ritchie assures us that Minnesota's system of voter verification protects electoral integrity.

But here's an uncomfortable fact: Ritchie himself was endorsed by the now-notorious ACORN and elected with its help."


How can we be sure that voter fraud will not play a major part in the Governor races in Virginia and New Jersey and the congressional race in New York today? How can we as citizens feel that we can ever have our voices heard through our vote if we can't be sure whether or not officials are being elected fraudulently? To be totally frank, I am very concerned about the recent things that have come to light about the organization "Acorn" with which President Obama has been closely associated. Please take steps to ensure that "Acorn" or any other organization can fraudulently have an affect on our electoral process. Our very freedoms are at stake.
