voter fraud runs both ways

This also appears at the blog site of the Democratic Party. To read any comments that people have made about this brief essay please read it there.

I found it interesting that someone in DNC's open thread posted this link

The woman is a Democrat involved in voter fraud. Now this might be construed as Democrats punishing their wrong doers, but more than likely the GOP will latch on to this and other similar stories to point out instances of voter fraud.

In 2004 a Democratic fundraiser bought cigarettes for some Milwaukee homeless people to get them to go vote, a clear violation of a Wisconsin law that prohibits giving anything of value for a vote. In that same election, Democratic workers slashed the tires of vans in GOP parking lot. These vans were rented to get people to the polls. Recently, in a local aldermanic race, the Democratic incumbent and eventual winner now sits in jail because of voter intimidation and other irregularities.

I am not saying that the GOP doesn't commit voter fraud or rigging, but having grown up in Chicago, I know the Democratic party has a much longer and more sordid history of election shenanigans.

If the democratic party doesnt clean up its own act, they can expect the GOP to keep harping on cases like the ones above and Chicago's history.
