Voter fraud is a fantasy just like unicorns

To whit...

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - A Democratic state legislator from east Arkansas, his father and two campaign workers pleaded guilty Wednesday to conspiracy to commit election fraud after federal prosecutors said the lawmaker's campaign bribed absentee voters and destroyed ballots in a special election last year.

Prosecutors said Hallum and his father, Kent, tasked Carter and Malone with obtaining absentee ballot applications for certain voters and assisting voters in filling out the ballots, "actually completing absentee ballots in some instances without regard to the voter's actual candidate choice."

The ballots were typically placed in unsealed envelopes before being mailed to local election officials.

"If a ballot contained a vote for Hudson Hallum's opponent, it was destroyed," prosecutors said in a bill of information filed with the court.

This conviction must be a mistake.

All voter fraud convictions are fake and manufactured... cuz LJ says it never happens. Don't worry, your vote is just as strong as any criminal that wants to dilute it.

Fiction is not worth commenting on.

The facts presented in the piece are not fiction. Only the show is fiction.

And the article of the OP is fact, but you deflected.

How would photo ID have prevented this?

I agree with you, I don't think that it would have done much to prevent it Dog

butt a showing a valid ID to vote is a is a good place to start.

Sorry, I thought posting a video about the "problem" of voter ID in a discussion about voter fraud was staying on subject. Not sure how you think it's a deflection.

But to the original post:

The ballots were typically placed in unsealed envelopes before being mailed to local election officials.

"If a ballot contained a vote for Hudson Hallum's opponent, it was destroyed," prosecutors said in a bill of information filed with the court.

Prosecutors also accused the four of offering money and food to absentee voters in exchange for their support.

How would requiring voter ID have prevented this from happening?

Your turn.

I didn't bring up voter ID's. Stop deflecting. It's the left that keeps harping that there is NO proof of any voter fraud. I just presented on case of that proof. And the perpetrator admitted to the crime. It's can't get any simpler that that.

So if you have something to say about the subject of this article, then do it.
