Stealing Your Vote
- Be careful, Democrats and historically
Democratically aligned organizations want to steal your vote and
disenfranchise you.
· In 2000, Theresa LePore, Supervisor of Elections in Palm Beach County, and a Democrat, designed the infamous “butterfly ballot”.
· Since 2004, the NAACP has been under investigation for paying one of its workers with cocaine in exchange for his efforts, while submitting forged and fraudulent voter registration cards.
· Days before the 2004 Presidential election, Democrats placed phone calls to voters and purposely gave out the wrong election date and polling location - the case is still pending in the Marion County Court of Common in Ohio.
· In May of 2005, Jesse Jackson agreed to pay the Federal Election Commission a fine of $100,000 for violating the Federal Election Campaign Act.
· In January 2005, five Democrats and the son of first term Congresswoman Gwen Moore, were charged with criminal damage to property for slashing the tires of 25 vehicles used to drive voters to the polls. The felony carries a maximum punishment of 3 ½ years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
What Democrats fail to disclose is that the real culprit of election fraud is the Democrat Party.
Democrats are already planning a strategy to make claims of voter fraud, voter intimidation and racism. In fact, we can expect to see Rainbow Push Coalition founder Jesse Jackson, Democratic National Committee Chair Howard Dean, and California Democrat Chairman Art Torres crisscrossing the state, charging the Republican Party with developing covert plans to disenfranchise and suppress the vote of minorities.
The Republican Party strongly believes that every voter should be given an opportunity to cast his or her ballot, regardless of political views and absent intimidation and suppression.
Voters who feel such pressures should contact their local registrar of voters immediately to lodge formal complaints. Don’t let embarrassment or fear keep you from reporting pressure from poll workers, co-workers, or campaigners to vote a particular way. These people know that you might hesitate to report that you have been pressured and will continue to do so without your intervention. - _____________________________________________________
