Guess who."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The<a href=\"http:\/\/www.washtimes.com\/news\/2008\/jul\/29\/gop-chief-urges-investigation-into-widespread-vote\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Washington Times<\/a>&#8216; Bob Lewis writes that the Virginia GOP is calling for an investigation into &#8220;widespread&#8221; voter fraud in the state based on the arrest of several Obama supporters;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The chairman, Delegate Jeffrey M. Frederick, Prince William Republican, decried a &#8220;widespread problem across the commonwealth&#8221; after the arrests of three people last week in Hampton on election fraud charges. He urged Gov. Tim Kaine, a Democrat, and Attorney General Robert F. McDonnell, a Republican, to begin a statewide investigation.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->The three were arrested on felony charges, and Mr. Frederick said the arrests triggered investigations in several other localities, including Richmond, Newport News and Norfolk.<\/p>\n<p>But when pressed on his assertion that registration fraud had been reported by local election registrars statewide, Mr. Frederick would not identify other affected jurisdictions, citing the advice of lawyers.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy Rodrigues, executive secretary of the State Board of Elections, said the reported fraud was based in Hampton, and listed eight other localities where victims could be involved.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, Tim Kaine, VA&#8217;s governor is on Obama&#8217;s short list for Vice President, so I doubt we&#8217;ll see much action from Richmond on this.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Much of the increased registration activity involves block-by-block efforts by the campaign of presumed Democratic nominee Barack Obama to add tens of thousands of new young and minority voters to Virginia&#8217;s rolls.<\/p>\n<p>The three people arrested worked for the nonprofit Community Voters Project and, to be paid, had to meet a daily quota of new registrations. Two were 18 and one was 22. The group is affiliated with the Boston-based Fund for the Public Interest, which promotes progressive and environmentalist efforts but has no direct ties to Mr. Obama or the Democratic Party.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To their credit, Fund for the Public Interest blew in the criminals to the cops, but it seems to me that Democrats are involved in a lot of this type of stuff. I&#8217;m sure many of my readers will gladly recount stories of voter fraud in their own areas. But it&#8217;s indicative of the mentality that the Democrats know what&#8217;s best for us, despite our own wishes. If they are so far ahead in the polls and they&#8217;ve got a solid agenda that&#8217;ll get them elected, why do they feel they have to cheat?<\/p>\n<p>No Democrat has been elected to the Presidency with more than 49% of the vote since 1976 &#8211; for a reason. Most American voters know the Democrat platform is intellectually bankrupt and potentially harmful to the nation&#8230;and Democrats themselves know it. The only way they can win is by cheating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Times&#8216; Bob Lewis writes that the Virginia GOP is calling for an investigation into &hellip; <a title=\"Voter fraud in VA.
