for filling out registration cards with names of dead people and other bogus information.
The volunteers worked for “Operation Big Vote” — a branch of ACORN

On February 10, 2005,
Nonaresa Montgomery, a paid worker who ran Operation Big Vote
during the run-up to the 2001 mayoral primary,
was found guilty of vote fraud.

In April 2008
eight ACORN employees in St. Louis city and county
pleaded guilty to federal election fraud
for submitting bogus voter registrations.

All members of acorn - all guilty. You asked me to put up and I did. These are facts - irrefutable facts.
The fact is that ACORN submitted all registrations as required by law, reported those that they thought were questionable, fully cooperated with authorities, which led to the convictions.

In fact, ACORN had collected over 1 million voter registrations nationwide in 08 and less than 1/10th of 1 percent were questionable and reported as such by ACORN to the appropriate state authorities.

ACORN has never been charged with voter registration fraud.....that is a fact.

You can transfer the guilt of volunteers to the organization or characterize it as you wish. No court has ever made that leap of guilt association.

But in your unsubstantiated and undocumented opinion, its all a cover-up of deceptive practices and a ploy that makes them worse then the murdering, drug running, prostitute pimping, illegal gambling operations Mafia?
