He’d then have to stop pretending it’s a serious problem requiring draconian solutions.
Meantime the paper that fired Littwin has served up editorials supporting those draconian solutions for a problem for which no one has offered a scrap of proof of existence while high fiving the defeat of a bill to make distributing false election info a felony.
Let’s see. Which affects elections more: A merely possible but unlikely few voting illegally and having their votes actually count, as yet unproved in even one case, or face book posts and widely distributed fliers telling Dem leaning demos and neighborhood residents that their polling place has changed or that election day has been changed to a date after the real one or that if they have any outstanding traffic or parking tickets they will be arrested when they try to vote?
According to the paper that fired Littwin and to Repugs, the first scenario is a threat to the republic, the second just harmless pranks. This has nothing to do with protecting elections and everything to do with suppressing the Democratic vote.
initials like this, I can google and find out what the heck they mean. No luck with google for these. So thanks? Screw you? I have no clue which. I’m an old lady who doesn’t speak text.
Google probably doesn’t have it…yet
1) DHS likely can’t comment on request for investigation so Gessler crows citing that as proof or fraud when it’s really just security bureaucracy
2) DHS denies request for investigation so Gessler crows about Fed’s conspiracy with Dems to allow voter fraud (builds on ColPols post)
either way, Gessler extends his GOP bona-fides to become the Repug poster boy for the Great Voter Fraud fight 2012. GOP needs another ACORN to drum up more white hate & bigtory for 2012 election and Scottie sees his chance to shine.
If only someone Fed level could compel Scottie to put up or shut up. Let’s see Scottie forced to publicly share his preliminary evidence before the Feds go fishing.
Fuxsake he spends a lot of time on this obsession. Do other areas of SoS responsibility suffer for the sake of this subject? All his noise on this makes me wonder if it’s to deflect attention from other doings.
He’s making brown people scared to register to vote.
That’s his apparent intent.
REALLY?
What if Homeland Security approves the request? What if they find that thousands of noncitizens voted in 2010? What will you do then?
Since you don’t know what will happen, I suggest you shut up and wait for DHS to decide.
Over the past fourteen months, Mr. Gessler has at different times publicly stated there are 10,000+ illegal aliens voting in Colorado; then he said 4,000+, then 600, then 106, then 6, then 550, then his spokesman about a week ago said Mr. Gessler has only alleged 6 and now we are back up to somewhere in the neighborhood of 4,500. Your correct when you say no one knows how the investigation Mr. Gessler has called for from Homeland Security will turn out but there is certainly plenty of evidence to suggest he simply doesn’t know what he is talking about. But one thing is crystal clear, he is willing to throw wild accusations around without offering any proof.
By the way, why doesn’t he agree with the Mesa County clerk and recorder, a fellow Republican, and allow the clerks to review his list of 4,500? Assuming Homeland Security undertakes an investigation, wouldn’t that stand as a double check of that agency’s investigation? Or if DHS won’t conduct an investigation, we can all get to the bottom of this through the clerks good offices. I don’t understand why Mr. Gessler is so reluctant to have other public officials in Colorado verify his allegations. Do you? If I was in Mr. Gessler’s shoes, I’d be utilizing every available avenue to find the answer, including through the clerks.
Surely, since he has 4,500 specific names, he has some evidence as to whether some of these people are illegal aliens who have registered to vote and who have voted.
Because a vigorous debate about policy makes Arap nervous. And it’s unseemly when DHS knows things we don’t and yet hasn’t decided. Don’t you get it, R36?
He would have asked DHS before the new year began to start the investigation. This is just another stall tactic to avoid uttering the truth – that this isn’t a real issue.
Ha ha
