Democratic Voter Fraud- The Real Picture of Corruption, Part 1

Hearne said he was inspired to delve into the details of election law after 2000, when on election day he found himself in court arguing against a move by Democrats to delay the closing of some St. Louis polling sites.

“They were arguing for a plaintiff who wound up to be dead. It was a fiction,” he said. “I thought I had walked into a John Grisham novel.”

With midterm elections less than two months away, it’s a good time to look back at the democratic voter fraud, election violations and attempted murder of government witnesses since Americans last went to the polls in 2004.

Democratic Voter Fraud, The Real Story – Part 1

The real story of the many democratic convictions of voter fraud in the United States since 2004. This gives you a shocking look at who is really stealing elections and much, much more!

Here are a few of the more memorable stories:

In Washington State, the blog Sound Politics reported that election officials knowingly and unlawfully counted ballots from ineligible voters in 2004 and then modified computer records to cover it up.

Democrats took the governor’s office on the third recount, by 129 votes.

In New Jersey… Dead people cast more than 4,000 votes in 2004, and nearly 11,000 people appear to have voted twice.

In West Virginia At least ten democrats entered guilty pleas for voter fraud in Logan and neighboring Lincoln County. Votes were bought in these West Virginia counties with booze, cash, payment of college tuition, and promises of gravel roads!

This brings us to St. Louis where Convicting Democrats has become the new Pastime. At least 16 local Democrats were convicted of election crimes in the last two years.

-In December 2004, Six volunteers for “Operation Big Vote” entered guilty pleas to dozens of election law violations for filling out the cards with names of the dead and other bogus information at a local McDonalds. Election officials launched an investigation after noticing that among the new voters registered was longtime Alderman Albert “Red” Villa, who died in 1990.

-In February 2005, Democrat Nonaresa Montgomery who ran Operation Big Vote, was found guilty of perjury in the St. Louis Circuit Court in her voter fraud trial.

This leads us to one of the most shocking and the largest voter fraud cases in the region’s history.

The story starts on October 31, 2004 at the East St. Louis VFW Hall…

Illinois State Board of Elections records reveal that 40 (of 44) ESL democratic precinct committeemen have received nearly $230,000 (collectively), over the past four years, for their ‘political activism’ in ESL elections.

Sources also stated that, on October 31, 2004 just days before the national elections over $80,000 was distributed to ESL politicians, at the East St. Louis VFW Hall, for the purpose of “getting out the vote”.

Around this time, Illinois State Treasurer, Republican Judy Topinka, who is currently running for governor of Illinois, traveled to East St. Louis to question absentee ballot procedures.

A boarding house came into question at 1232 Cleveland Avenue. Oliver Hamilton, a Democratic precinct committeeman, owned the boardinghouse.

It is a home for the mentally ill in East St. Louis. Eleven of the voters at this address requested absentee ballots for the 2004 election.

Another questionable registration was a woman who listed her home address as 200 S. Front St. This, of course, happens to be the address of the Casino Queen!

Steve McGlynn, a former chairman of the St. Clair County Republican Party, said he had received “specific information” that Democrats planned to buy votes, particularly in East St. Louis, with cash and crack cocaine.

McGlynn said he had delivered to the East St. Louis Election Board lists of hundreds of registered voters that he had cross-referenced with names from local obituary pages.

When questioned, Robert Sprague, the St. Clair County Democratic chairman, dismissed McGlynn’s allegations as “hogwash.” Sprague said the Democrats were planning an aggressive get-out-the-vote push but declined to describe those efforts in detail.
