McCain’s Registration Fraud Glass House Shatters

Acorn Investigate It! Acorn Investigate It! Acorn Investigate It! Was a popular mantra on the trail until it was suddenly silenced yesterday and over the weekend by the arrests and then linking back of to two Republican operatives in the employ of the McCain campaign on real vote suppression and slamming fraud.

Remember last week when McCain talked about Acorn as “a grave threat to the very fabric of our Democracy?” How Acorn registered fiction al voters and were committing voter fraud? Now they are silent.

It seems the McCain campaign has funded two firms that have indeed conducted fraud and disenfranchised very real voters. Mark Jacoby was arrested in Ontario California on two counts of perjury and two counts of vote fraud. Seems he registered a fake address in California to get around the state’s restriction on conducting voter registration drives only if you are indeed a resident to, ostensibly, prevent the kind of fraud he was perpetrating. His company was called YPM. Nop stranger to legal troubles, prosecutors in LA, Ventura and San Bernardino counties all have questions for Mr. Jacoby.

Seems he likes to engage in practice called slamming where he takes voter registration info and ensures that they are registered as Republicans whether they choose that party or not since they only get paid for registering (wait for it) Republicans… So 80% of all ballots received were Republican whther that was true of not.

Why? Because a madman in Republican circles Steve Poisner is offering a $5 per registration bounty – kind of like a poker cash/knockout bounty – per voter. Mr. Poisner, is State Chair for (wait for it..) the McCain Campaign. Senator McCain cannot claim ignorance of this because YPM and Jacoby are based in his home state of Arizona. YPM have been busy. They also were accused of fraud in 2004 in Florida and Massachusetts.

As if that was not enough, enter Nathan Sprewell, former head of the Arizona Republican Party. He has been ignoring whistle-blowers and stands accused of tearing up Democratic registration in Oregon, Nevada, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Real registrations of real voters who thought they were registered and very wel may have been denied to right to vote in the real election of 2004.
