53,000 Dead Voters Found in Florida
 I have learned that Florida election officials are set to announce that the secretary of state has discovered and purged up to 53,000 dead voters from the voter rolls in Florida.It's a good start. But only for this one state. How could 53,000 dead voters have sat on the polls for so long? Simple. Because Florida hadnt been using the best available data revealing which voters have died. Next question: How come any state would avoid switching over to the best available data for so long? Florida is now using the nationwide Social Security Death Index for determining which voters should be purged because they have died. Here is the bad news. Most states arent using the same database that Florida is. In fact, I have heard reports that some election officials wont even remove voters even when they are presented with a death certificate. Get That means that voter rolls across the nation still are filled with dead voters, even if Florida is leading the way in detecting and removing them. But surely people arent voting in the names of dead voters, the voter fraud deniers argue. Wrong. Consider the case of Lafayette Keaton. Keaton not only voted for a dead person in Oregon, he voted for his dead son. Making Keatons fraud easier was Oregons vote by mail scheme, which has opened up gaping holes in the integrity of elections. The incident in Oregon just scratches the surface of the problem. Massachusetts and Mississippi are but two other examples of the dead rising on election day. Or when 5:00 rolls around and it's time to go home from your government job. Florida should be applauded for taking the problem seriously, even if Eric Holders Justice Department and many state election officials dont. That's going to make the unions have to work that much harder to play games with the locations of their hidden and pre-loaded voting machines. Posted by: gorb 2012-05-21 |
