So why is this voting official just waving off the requirement that only citizens should vote? “Right. It doesn’t matter that he’s not a citizen?” the undercover journalist asked, adding, “I saw some mess on the internet that it’s not legal for him to vote because…” “No. Don’t pay any attention to that. Bring him up … Read more
The job of a journalist is to report facts, add context where necessary, and leave it to the consumer to decide what he thinks. In this video, James O’Keefe, founder and president of Project Veritas, explains why fewer and fewer people trust modern-day “journalism.” (H/T: Project Veritas)
Ed Naile joins us to talk about election fraud during the New Hampshire primary and his part in the under-cover Project Vertias videos (the second of which is due out this morning).
This week we examine the post NH primary hangover, election fraud and an inside look at the latest Project Veritas Video with Ed Naile, Democrat gun ban legislation, the SCOTUS ruling on Obama’s Clean Power Plan with AFP’s Chrissy Harbin, and there’s also plenty of talk about local control vs. central planning, and Jeb! – … Read more
James O’Keefe can put another notch in his belt – his undercover agent went to visit Patrick Moran, Congressman Jim Moran’s (D-VA) son who is working on his Dad’s campaign (for his 12th term). As with a number of his Project Veritas‘s videos, the target was voter fraud. Knowing how much and how often Democrats … Read more
Steve had the first one video here. And now a second one has popped up from James O’Keefe’sProject Veritas with more paid Democrats laughing (yes, laughing!) at folks talking about committing voter fraud (er, the operative word as to the attitude of Obama’s campaign operatives was “Sweet!”). You see, making suggestions on how to accomplish this just never seems to enter the heads of these wondertwits that they are aiding and abetting a felony-in-the-making.
And it further proves the long standing allegations of the Right that voter fraud does exist and it mostly acts like an iceberg – very little of it is seen:
As opposed to the earlier type of simply voting in the stead of someone else at a given polling place, this is more insidious. While here in NH there is a relatively new system that links towns together so that if someone moves into a “recipient” town the “donor” town gets a notification, it doesn’t talk all that well to other states. Which, as we can see, is the type of voter fraud outlined in this video.
“This is significant because labor unions are some of the biggest beneficiaries of taxpayer-funded jobs,” says O’Keefe. “If they’re intentionally propping up paper jobs, then they’re complicit in the fleecing of taxpayers.”
The latest video from Project Veritas captures Newark SEIU President Rahaman Muhammad laying out in explicit terms the nature of the relationship between his union and lawmakers like Democrat Senator Robert Menendez.
Project Veritas: “So that means you’re going to get the union dues…”
SEIU: “Exactly!”
Project Veritas: “…to your campaign.”
SEIU: “Exactly! It benefits them.”
So, why do I think that this is no different than the announcement (Laconia Daily Sun, (10/4, page 15)that the Gilford firefighters union endorsing the Democrats in all of the races that touch my hamlet (e.g., NH House, NH Senate),
James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas has done another Voter Fraud video – this time in the State where the Democrat National Convention will be – North Carolina! How fitting, as it always seems that Democrats are the one who could care less who is voting (or how often – it’s the Chicago way!). I just keep wondering how long it will take before the illustrative theater of the absurd will finally start to sink in – and even with that, it IS absurd that the government workers can’t accept that if something is that absurd looking, they are being punked. But, that’s the problem with “seams” or boundary conditions and folks who are “just doing the job” – both them and the “system” can easily be exploited.
This afternoon, the Rye Republican Town Committee held their “Gala Reception for 2012 GOP Candidates” at the Abenaqui Country Club in Rye, NH and GraniteGrok was there to livestream the event. Given such a name, a number of NH GOP candidates for seats in 2012 did attend the sold-out crowd of about 250. However, the … Read more
The Foster’s (It’s Australian for Beeyah!) Daily Democrat, gave GraniteGrok some ink this morning regarding James O’Keefe’s “appearance” at a Rye Republican GOP event yesterday…(That’s Rye NH, not the grass or the spirits, though perhaps the humor.) O’Keefe’s video appearance Sunday was facilitated by the conservative political website Granite Grok, which provided live video coverage … Read more
“It is a sign of the times that the absence of meaningful ID requirements in many states leaves our voting process vulnerable to fraud and allows legal votes to be cancelled out by illegally cast ballots.”—Virgil Goode
Yesterday, the New Hampshire Senate passed SB289 right down party lines 18 to 5, according the the New Hampshire Union Leader. The bill now goes to the House. The Senate website indicates a roll call vote, but as of this morning, there is no listing for that. Why is the leadership in this Senate Body “gun shy” about each Senator owning his or her vote via roll call?
The bill require voters to show photo identification before casting ballots is a step closer to becoming law after it was passed by a wide margin in the Senate on Wednesday.
You want to register? No ID needed. Even if you use the names of star quarterbacks! Lovely! “We are not the police“…… Who else is getting disenfranchised today? After what happened here in NH, why hasn’t the MSM been digging into this with all of their armies of investigative reporters, fact checkers, editors, and political … Read more
Yesterday, I had to go the State House on a personal matter. Seeing that I had to wait to complete that errand, why not spend the time wisely? With the coverage that the Grok has spent on the Voter ID / fraud issue here in NH since the James O’Keefe / Project Veritas video that … Read more
“American youth attributes much more importance to arriving at driver’s license age than at voting age.” —Marshall McLuhan
Opponents of Voter ID laws argue the laws stifle turnout among students, poor people and minorities, who are more likely to vote for Democrats but might lack government-issued IDs, such as driver’s licenses and passports. And that is a totally flawed notion.
Why is that notion so flawed?Simple. Let us look first at the largest demographic in the U.S. who is most likely to seek out public assistance of any kind. In doing so, lets look at a program or two that are universally recognized:
Earlier this evening, I had the opportunity to talk with James O’Keefe of Project Veritas concerning the NH First In The Nation Voter Fraud video that has gone viral in the blogosphere and has ignited a firestorm of commentary and angst here in NH (and of course, we have commented upon it all starting here … Read more
“Perhaps that suspicion of fraud enhances the flavor.” —C. S. Forester
SHREW: (SHroo) def. 1. A small mouse-like insectivorous mammal (Sorex, Crocidura, and other genera, family Soricidae) with a long pointed snout and tiny eyes. 2. A bad-tempered or aggressively assertive woman.
Juxtaposing this anti-voter ID push-back with the viewpoint of the average citizen who votes, but does not dabble in activist partisan rancor, an overwhelming majority of those citizens agree it is perfectly reasonable to show who one is to vote on election days. Maintaining the integrity of a system, intended to incorporate the duty of one person, one vote, gels with average sensibilities and common sense.
“There is no voter fraud problem in New Hampshire. We already have strong elections laws that are effective in regulating our elections.” —Governor John H. Lynch, in his July 2011 veto address of HB129
There is no voter fraud problem in New Hampshire. We already have strong elections laws that are effective in regulating our elections.
That has been the key Democratic talking point right down the line. From our own Attorney General to Ray Buckley, “Shrill” Kathy Sullivan, and a gaggle of RINO’s in the legislature. Opponents continued to push back against Voter ID claiming whole groups of people would be denied access to the polls under this bill. In vetoing HB 129 bill last Summer, Skip also pointed out in the governor’s veto message:
I got a tip just after 2pm that the story has broken that James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas has done yet another undercover investigation. First, however, let’s set the stage with what Gov. Lynch has said:
The right to vote is a fundamental right that is guaranteed to all citizens of this State under the United States and New Hampshire Constitutions. An eligible voter who goes to the polls to vote on Election Day should be able to have his or her vote count on Election Day. SB 129 creates a real risk that New Hampshire voters will be denied their right to vote.
Voter turnout in New Hampshire is among the highest in the nation, election after election. There is no voter fraud problem in New Hampshire. We already have strong elections laws that are effective in regulating our elections.
Riiiggghhhttt! Really? Who are you going to believe – Lynch and Gardner’s closed eyes or your lying eyes:
Lying eyes: as in “the same thing time after time – walk up, give some dead guy’s name, confirm the address, and get a ballot. Simple. Fraudulent.” And you watched it over and over. Project Veritas chose NH’s First In The Nation Primary to investigate voter fraud here in NH – and they certainly found a number of problems here yesterday at a number of polling places:
On New Hampshire Primary Day, Project Veritas sent a team of investigators into polling places with a list of deceased voters to see if they would be permitted to vote.
We tested more than a dozen polling places, simply walking up and stating the name of the deceased, and in all but one instance — where an alert poll worker actually knew the recently deceased — we were handed ballots.
While our investigators cast no votes and returned the ballots, there was nothing stopping our team from illegally influencing the outcome of a presidential primary.
With the 8 vote margin in the 2012 Iowa Caucus, it is clear that voter fraud can influence the outcome of an election. It is important to note that Project Veritas’ team had the ability to cast more than a dozen votes in this latest investigation.
This has gone viral in the blogosphere and I just wish that I had been able to post this up earlier – but there will be more coming!
