NP Rank:
Bring out your dead - potential voter fraud in Missouri
WSJ Opinion Journal goes into some detail on the potential for voter fraud with the lack of a system to identify voters:
The Liberal Assault on Voter ID Laws. “People
in the good state of Missouri need photo identification to cash a
check, board a plane or apply for food stamps. But the state Supreme
Court has ruled that a photo ID requirement to vote is too great a
burden on the elderly and the poor. Go figure.”
On the heels of
the democrat front group ACORN being discovered with 1500 fraudulent
voter registrations submitted by its St. Louis office, Missouri
citizens were today informed that their new Voter ID law had been
declared unconstitutional.
The justices said
requiring otherwise legitimate voters to obtain an appropriate ID
imposed too great of a burden on their voting rights.
This year in Missouri, ACORN has turned in about 40,000 new voter registrations. Half of those were in St. Louis.
ACORN fired several workers in 2003 after turning in
over 1000 bogus registrations. Unreadable cards, duplicate
registrations, underage voters, dead people, and forged signatures
turned up in Ohio, Minnesota, North Carolina and Virginia,
Pennsylvania, and Colorado.
