Is Wisconsin the Vote Fraud Capitol of the US?
In focus tomorrow in elections, and ongoing in the months to come as efforts to recall Wisconsin Republican State Senators continue, will be Wisconsin's flawed, corrupt and incompetently-run election system. This is not a partisan allegation, but rather one made by the most thorough, non-ideological study ever conducted on an election, which was released by the Milwaukee Police Department. The left has never refuted any of the substance of the Milwaukee report, yet virtually nothing has been done to attempt to rectify the problems it identified.
Why? Because the record keeping in Wisconsin is incompetent. Although investigators found an "illegal organized attempt to influence the outcome of an election in the state of Wisconsin," nothing was done to prosecute the various Democrat and liberal staffers who committed the vote fraud. This is because:
Based on the investigation to date, the task force has found widespread record keeping failures and separate areas of voter fraud. These findings impact each other. Simply put: it is hard to prove a bank embezzlement if the bank cannot tell how much money was there in the first place. Without accurate records, the task force will have difficulty proving criminal conduct beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
In other words, incompetent Election Officials make it hard to prosecute guilty people and groups, even when caught red-handed committing election fraud. The obvious solution, a legislative fix such as abandoning the corrupt system of same day registration, has been opposed by most elected Democrat officials, who must know such a system provides them with thousands of fraudulent votes every election. As the police concluded:
What is most troubling is that each ineligible ballot accepted in effect cancels a legal vote cast by a Wisconsin state resident.
The Republican Party of Wisconsin is to be lauded for their efforts to ensure a fair and accurate count. We only wish Democrats would join with Republicans and put the interest of ensuring honest and fair elections before their own self interest.
