Now we have reports of a voter registration fraud investigation in Lake County. No, we're not talking Lake County, Indiana, the site of fraud in the primaries (plus voters being bused in from Chicago) and again this fall-- half the registrations ACORN submitted so far were bogus. We're looking at Lake County, Illinois, in the hotly contested 10th Congressional District race between Mark Kirk, who actually lives in the district, and Democrat Dan Seals, a newcomer from Chicago who lives in liberal Dem Jan Schakowsky's 9th district. Lake County News Sun:
Pointing to more than 1,000 "compromised" registration forms received by her office, County Clerk Willard Helander called Friday for voter registration reform to protect the integrity of elections.
Meanwhile, the Lake County State's Attorney's Office and the Lake County Sheriff's Office confirmed the initiation of a joint investigation into the registration forms, which include non-existent addresses, dead people and even pets.
Helander said information on the registrations, all of which involved mail-in voter registration forms, has also been forwarded to Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan's office, the U.S. attorney's office and the FBI.
Receipt of the false registrations is "unprecedented" in Lake County and could call into question the integrity of election results in extremely close races, Helander said.
"We are concerned," she said. "If you have a race that is decided by two or five or 10 votes, you're going to care greatly."
Officials indicated that more than 800 of the forms were turned into the clerk's office by a Chicago resident claiming to represent several community organizations in Lake County.
Gee, why bother to even have a vote? We can just rely on these organizations, like Barack Obama's ACORN, to represent our interests and that of our pet goldfish Princess, deceased or otherwise.
P.S. Illinois has no photo ID, Barack. Don't we voters deserve the same protections you insisted on for your caucus votes in Nevada? Barack Obama brought change to Illinois all right--even more egregious vote fraud. Forgery and felony is no laughing matter.
