Plenty of reasons exist for suspecting absentee fraud may play a significant role in tomorrow's Garden State contests. Groups associated with Acorn in neighboring Pennsylvania and New York appear to have moved into the state. An independent candidate for mayor in Camden has already leveled charges that voter fraud is occurring in his city. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party in New Jersey is taking advantage of a new loosely written vote-by-mail law to pressure county clerks not to vigorously use signature checks to evaluate the authenticity of absentee ballots, the only verification procedure allowed.



The state has received a flood of 180,000 absentee ballot requests. On some 3,000 forms the signature doesn't match the one on file with county clerks. Yet citing concerns that voters would be disenfranchised, Democratic Party lawyer Paul Josephson wrote New Jersey's secretary of state asking her "to instruct County Clerks not to deny applications on the basis of signature comparison alone."



There are additional reports from Camden that Hispanic voters have been misled into voting absentee ballots. So-called bearers who are allowed to collect and carry absentee ballots are said to have encouraged voters to fill out applications for absentee ballots. A few days later, the bearers reportedly return with the actual ballots, which they offer "assistance" in filling out.

What would be really fucked up is if all these absentee ballots were for Christie. Corzine alredy looks like he's going to lose, so what if ACORN rigged it to make it look like Christie rigged it. They are already reporting that it is rigged and Christie would be the one that looks dirty. Then they could smear Republicans with accusations.

I predict that the day this country boils over will be an election day. More than likely a federal one, but who knows maybe a state one will do it.

I posted a link to this article in another thread yesterday. I'm SO sick and fed up with the Dems in this state and elsewhere that it's not even funny.
