Quote:Like Vor_lord said, ACORN is required by US law to deliver all forms they collected. I'm sure you can see why, MEAT. So, there is hardly any reason for screening, as long as forms don't get dumped somewhere. They are not even required to check the collected forms in any way, but they do. And in all these cases of registration 'fraud', it was the ACORN organisation who alerted officials, as far as I can see.Yes, but is it the tip of the iceberg?
Quote:In fact, if you didn't know what to vote 3 months ago, it's propably better not to vote at all.Not really. There is time to get familiar with candidates and vote your conscience.
Quote:Btw, I always find it hard to believe that obvious dirty tricks like this ACORN affaire can actually play a significant role in your elections (other then contempt ensuring defeat for the tricksters, ofcourse) :glare:It can when some State elections are as close as a few thousand votes. Check out the way electoral votes are cast. A little bit of fraud in a few States can have a huge impact on electoral votes.
