GOP trips over election rules
A Virginia company accused of collecting questionable voter applications is causing heartburn in the Old Dominion and other swing states.
A Virginia company is under scrutiny by Florida officials over irregularities on voter registration applications collected by the firm.
Cue the outrage from Republicans across the land who spy election fraud conspiracies on every corner. Cue the demands from self-appointed defenders of democracy for laws requiring voters to present at the polls their birth certificates, college degrees and vaccination records, copied in triplicate.

I’ve got one of this company’s phony “Vote By Mail-Absentee Ballot” voter application forms. A voter in here in Roanoke contacted me about it. I will be turning it in to the Justice Dept. for voter fraud.
If the company is indeed breaking the law, then by all means, hang ‘em.
Come now, if ACORN did not do it, it does not matter. Voter fraud is only a liberal and illegal immigrant deed. Who are you trying to kid? The TP/GOP would never “stoop to our level”. There will be no hue and cry because their voter fraud, intimidation, disenfranchisement and deliberate confusion is in the name of God, America and all things wholly GOP!
#1 & #3 I too received one. However (unlike the earlier dem mailings) it was not partially filled in. Even in the latter, there were no criminal charges.
The form I received was identical to absentee forms available upon request.
Thus, I think we can punt the histrionics (#3).
Jim Lucas, did you receive an unsolicited absentee ballot or an unsolicited registration form? I’ll ignore the lack of histrionics like ACORN received if you will call it what it actually was.
Voter fraud is voter fraud. Period. Anyone who is involved should be punished; liberals, conservatives, the pinheads at ACORN, the pinheads in the GOP. This is not about histrionics. It’s about protecting our basic rights guaranteed by our Founding Fathers. There are actually people in America who don’t give a flip about Republican or Democrat. We do give a flip about the Constitution.
#5 & #6 From the original missive, Mr. Artis:
“I’ve got one of this company’s phony “Vote By Mail-Absentee Ballot” voter application forms.”
Mrs. Saunders, where was your question then?
I said, perhaps not with any differentiation, that I had received the same.
Your ACORN bit was histrionics, and I doubt ACORN would fare well in the (irrelevant) comparisson.
What I received was an application form. Mr. Artis can make his own clarification.
No, Mr. Artis made clear what he received, you said you got a form “identical to absentee forms available upon request”. His did not require any clarification, yours does. Besides your own histrionics, there remains a difference. Of course I am going on the assumption that the form from the registrar’s office does not go to some third party or GOP hired group when completed.
