$15 the going rate for votes in Mississippi

2014-07-01

A black reverend stiffed by the Cochran campaign has exposed an alleged criminal conspiracy by Cochran staffers to commit massive voter fraud ahead of Tuesday's controversial U.S. Senate Republican runoff election in Mississippi.

Reverend Stevie Fielder, associate pastor at historic First Union Missionary Baptist Church and former official at Meridian's redevelopment agency, says he delivered "hundreds or even thousands," of blacks to the polls after being offered money and being assured by a Cochran campaign operative that Chris McDaniel was a racist. "They [the Cochran campaign] told me to offer blacks fifteen dollars each and to vote for Thad."

#6 It would bankrupt Soros to get the black vote out for a non-black candidate. In my humble opinion.

#5 And now everyone knows it beyond a doubt. It's not this primary season they are worried about anymore. It's 2016, when things are going to get heated.

#3 Put this in context. The establishment Republicans went out and rented the Democratic vote fraud machine to protect one of their own from his own constituents. How again are these guys any better than the other guys?

#2 If the AG in Miss doesn't go after this, then the corruption goes to the Governor's office. Which it likely does )Haley Barbour is one corrupt SOB as are his cronies and most relatives).

#1 I'd have a few questions for the Reverend.

"You're admitting to violating the 1954 law banning 501(c)(3) organizations, which includes charities and churches, from engaging in any political campaign activity?"

"You're willing to accept bribes?"

"Would you have stiffed your parishioners and kept the money?"
