Democrats Angry Over Judge’s Order To Have Ohio’s Voter Rolls Purged of Potentially Fraudulent Voters

Bill Sammon has written an interesting article regarding how “Ohio’s top election official accused a federal judge Friday of injecting ‘disorder’ into the presidential race by ordering her to purge the state’s voter rolls of potentially fraudulent voters.”

The article says,

On Thursday, (U.S. District Judge George C. ) Smith issued a court order compelling Brunner to purge Ohio’s voter rolls of fraudulent registrants or at least allow the state’s 88 counties to individually purge their portions of the state’s centralized voter registration database. Although Brunner has cross-checked the database against records from both the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles and the Social Security Administration, Smith ruled that she stopped short of weeding out the mismatched names.

“Defendant admitted that the county boards of election had no way to search or identify the mismatches,” Smith wrote in his order. “Defendant further indicated that the State, like the county boards of elections, at this time, also does not have the technological capabilities to run a search to identify or isolate mismatches.”

This leaves a nice little loophole the Democrats can exploit, in their highly-publicized scandal to contribute to voter fraud by steering money to groups like ACORN. No wonder Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner is upset! The judge is taking away a technological gap in the voting procedure that would probably have led to hundreds, if not thousands, of potentially fraudulent votes for her candidate in that sate.

As Michelle Malkin said on her website, “NYPost’s Jeane MacIntosh is doing great work exposing ACORN’s standard operating procedures in Ohio”:

A man at the center of a voter-registration scandal told The Post yesterday he was given cash and cigarettes by aggressive ACORN activists in exchange for registering an astonishing 72 times, in apparent violation of Ohio laws.

“Sometimes, they come up and bribe me with a cigarette, or they’ll give me a dollar to sign up,” said Freddie Johnson, 19, who filled out 72 separate voter-registration cards over an 18-month period at the behest of the left-leaning Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

“The ACORN people are everywhere, looking to sign people up. I tell them I am already registered. The girl said, ‘You are?’ I say, ‘Yup,’ and then they say, ‘Can you just sign up again?’ ” he said.

You know what this really sounds like? Chicago machine politics:

Now, which one of the two Presidential contenders, this year, came out of that background? If you haven’t yet read The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso, you should at least go to Barnes & Noble (or whatever bookstore you prefer) and just read the section on his political history in Chicago.
