Democrats charged with election fraud
Those wacky Democrats! When they aren't violating election laws by intimidating voters they aren't doing it by falsifying election documents!
Two former leaders of the Oakland County Democratic Party are facing a total of nine felonies for allegedly forging election paperwork to get fake Tea Party candidates on November’s ballot. “It is not a partisan statement, and we need to make that very clear,” said Oakland County Prosecutor Jessica Cooper.
Former Oakland County Democratic Chair Mike McGuinness and former Democratic Operations Director Jason Bauer face up to 14 years in prison if convicted. “Some of the people didn’t even know they were on the ballot till they began receiving delinquency notices of filings that were required as a candidate,” said Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard.
It's a good thing they are being prosecuted at the local level. I'm sure Eric Holder would deny anything was wrong here and that "boys will be boys!" before charging the victims of these illegal schemes with failure to file federal election forms.
Remember this the next time you see an alleged Tea Party candidate regurgitating MSM talking points and/or acting like the caricatures of Tea Party members you see in the MSM. The Democrats are doing their best to misinform you about the Tea Party and to divide and conquer its supporters by planting false candidates on ballots.
