Even More Voter Registration Shenanigans: West Virginia Has 112% Of Eligible Voters Registered

  •  October 10, 2008

My post from yesterday about Indianapolis having 105% of its eligible voters registered has gotten a lot of response, including this in the Huntington (West Virgina) Herald-Dispatch:

I’ve been tracking this in southern West Virginia for years, particularly in Lincoln County.
2004: 106.4 percent voter registration.
2006: 107 percent.
2008 primary: 112.4 percent.

You’d think that at some point, someone somewhere would want to fix this.

    Now we know what a community organizer does. He gets money from the government and funnels it through a network communtity activist organizations back to ACORN. Then ACORN uses it to fraudently register multiple or illegal voters, who in turn elect more corrupt politicians, who in turn give them more money.

    Isn’t that an expected result of people moving, reregistering, and not telling the BOE that they’ve moved? It seems silly to be surprised by a stat like that.

    A. Most people who move generally move within a county, so they would just transfer registration addresses, not create a new voter registration.

    B. West Virginia isn’t Maui, where people move for short periods of time, then move away.

    And if WE question it WE will be labeled a racist by BHO’s Henchmen.

    This has got to be some right wing conspiracy! NOT! How will Obama deflect this time? Obama doesn’t want to talk about it.

    We work hard to make sure every eligible voter is heard. Just because some of the people we hire don’t follow the rules doesn’t mean we planned it. We believe some of the people not following the rules are McCain supporters planted among our workers. They keep track of the false registrations and turn the information over to the authorities. They cannot understand a non-white person can bring out the vote.

    I’ve got friends voting Obama because “he’s an outsider and we need that in Washington.” I replied that he rose to the top of Chicago politics.

    I’m still not sold on Palin but the history she has is based on fighting and taking down the likes of Stevens, a real rethuglican. Obama has no such history in Chicago.

    Heh,

    The things that happen in the State of Byrd (formerly known as West Virginia)…

    Why my great, great grand daddy rode with Nathan Bedford Forrest, and he still votes every election, twice!

    Heh!

    you know that Obama is lying about who and what he is; neither McCain or Sarah needs to do that - Same old bullstuff from r108

    If you want to play dirty dozens, OK.


    “ – Sarah honey, stay away from any specific questions about my POW years. But if they ask about that anti-America paper I signed for the communists, say it was a Freedom Paper For Good and Against Bad and that Obama was the bad part.
    - How do you expect me to say such a thing?
    - I expect you to say it loud, waving your hands and jerking your head.
    - Oh, okay    ”

    “ – Sarah sweetie, they called me the Songbird because some claimed I was giving military secrets to the communists and singing the Vietnamese national anthem. If they ask about it, say it was Obama.
    Obama what? Never mind what, just say it was Obama, stamp your feet, jerk your head and wink at the camera with a big smile.
    Oh, okay    .”

    -If they see my picture wearing that cool helmet I was awarded by the communists, say its Obama.
    -How can I say it’s Obama if it’s a picture of you?
    -Say it’s a trick by Obama and ACORN, jerk your head, stamp your feet and…
    -OK, OK, I know the rest of my script.


    THIS IS OBAMA

    Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign distanced itself Thursday from its $800,000 payment linked to the liberal ACORN organization, which is under investigation in several states where it is suspected of filing fraudulent voter registrations.

    Federal Election Commission reports show ACORN-affiliated Citizens Services Inc. got $832,598 from the Obama campaign for get-out-the-vote work during the primaries. But those payments stopped in May and the Obama campaign says they should not be an election issue.

    Oswaldo – it’s pretty obvious that you support voter fraud.

    Keep on ignoring it.

    Your side is ALL about fraud.

    To acorn:

    Let’s sum up your argument

    “It’s not that we’re dishonest. It’s just that McCain sympathizers catchus being dishonest!”

    Nonsense.

    Oswaldo…
    Aww…you’re too stupid to see the facts of the case. Surely Obama is rigging the vote himself right? Halfwit.

    But those payments stopped in May and the Obama campaign says they should not be an election issue.

    The Obama campaign makes fraudulent payments totaling $832,598, and then has the audacity to declare that this shouldn’t be a campaign issue because they are no longer making the fraudulent payments!?

    That’s like saying since you discovered that I’ve been beating my wife and kids, I’ve stopped doing it… so don’t bother to ask me about.

    Whatever experience, wisdom, judgment, integrity, and candor Obama lacks is more than made up for by the umitigated arrogance of the man and his supporters.

    jpe, I had the same thought about people moving, and a magazine to which I subscribe (World Magazine, http://www.worldmag.com) did a report where a writer went to place he and his children had lived, and found that yes, they were still on the voter rolls. However, what we have here in WV is a year over year increase in this excess, and that’s not easily explained by moving.

    Moreover, there is usually a portion of adults who do not register to vote, so >100% registered IS indeed a cause for curiousity and concern.

    And the ACORN guy? Well, yeah, you get caught submitting tens of thousands of fraudulent applications, you’re going to try to point fingers at someone. Nice try, but no go. This sticks to ACORN and Daley, I mean Obama.

    Ah, I get to weigh in on a West Virginian concern (I’m a proud West Virginian):

    West Virginia, despite having some sense and voting for Bush of late, has been overwhelmingly Democrat in the last 50 years. (It’s the reason our state is one of the poorest in the nation). WV was heavily unionized due to coal miner exploitation long, long ago. The poison of unions goes away hard.

    Since many of us have heard the far left mantra “Vote early, vote often”, the correlation between WV being historically Democrat and having over 100% voter registration speaks for itself.

    According to STATSIndiana, In 2007, Indianapolis/Marion County had an estimated population of 876,804.
