Back To The Drawing Board For Ohio Secretary of State Brunner

Cross posted with permission from McNorman, who has been Brunner Watching, so to speak. Looks like Ms. Brunner will have to think fast and come up with yet another excuse for not keeping registration rolls clean.

More More Update: 6th Court Of Appeals to hear case pdf

Full Sixth Circuit Reverses Panel, Siding With Original Judge That Ohio Secretary of State Must Do Her Job and Stop Election Fraud

She must do her work and turn the verification system back on while awaiting a full hearing which may not come until after the election.

She was trying to run out the clock. Wah!! I hear some majah wailing from Brunner. SNARK

She is compelled to do her job, absent a contrary ruling by the court. It is not as if Brunner is not getting paid to do her job. MORE SNARK.

Darke Blog UPDATE: In looking at the decision, it appears the full court voted 9-6 to hear the case en banc (which means all of them). I’d say the 9-6 vote is a good sign, but doesn’t necessarily mean the case will end that way. Tonight’s decision has been described as the opportunity to “live and fight another day.” But in the world of temporary restraining orders, if you have it, that’s all that matters for the time being. And the time being is what is crucial right now.

Second point – the initial district court decision got some press because the judge found that Brunner was actually violating the law. That dialogue was snuffed out by the subsequent reversal. But now it’s back. When you run into Jennifer Brunner on the street, you can ask her why she’s violating federal election laws.

You deserve the hat tip Patrick Poole. Patrick Poole is Darke Blog.

Just like Michelle, I believe that we must get to the bottom of the any fraud occurring all over our country.

From Voting Is Power to ACORN. IT MUST STOP.

The St. Petersburg Times reports that ACORN tried to register Mickey Mouse.

Investor’s Business Daily hammers “Obamacorn.”

So does the WSJ.

Jim Hoft provides a guide to ACORN fraud.

Even CNN is on the case.

The ciggies-and-smokes kid and other fraud recruits testified in Ohio.

More update: 10-14-08 PDF John Cornyn, US Senator TX requests feds look probe ACORN fraud. That is the VOTE EARLY VOTE OFTEN ACORN that you have been hearing about. (Association of Corrupted Organizations for Registration of Non-Eligible Voters or ACORN)

From the NYPost:

The vote of Darnell Nash, one of four people subpoenaed in a Cuyahoga County probe of ACORN’s voter-registration activities, was canceled and his case was turned over to local prosecutors and law enforcement, Board of Elections officials said yesterday.

Nash had registered to vote repeatedly from an address that belonged to a legitimately registered voter, officials said during a hearing at which the subpoenaed voters were to testify.

Board officials had contacted Nash this summer, questioned his address and told him to stop repeat registering.

But still, he breezed into Ohio election offices – the state allows early voting for president – reregistered with a fake address and cast a paper ballot, officials said.

“He came in on 9/30 and Mr. Nash again registered to vote at [someone else's] address, and he cast a ballot,” said board official Jane Platten.

UPDATE: ACORN in Lake County, Indiana: All 2,100 of First 2,100 ACORN Registrations Fraudulent.

Every. Single. One. I am stunned. NOT!

CNN blames the government for some reason.

From the WSJ:

The Justice Department needs to treat these fraud reports as something larger than a few local violators. The question is whether Acorn is systematically subverting U.S. election law — on the taxpayer’s dime.

From ACE Stay tuned:

RICO ACTION AGAINST ACORN TOMORROW MORNING or have they canned it? Can you say RICO?

Ok NOT RICO. PDF.

To be filed Tuesday morning in in the Court of Common Pleas, Warren County, Ohio
A suit on behalf of citizens asking for, among other things, the
dissolution of ACORN.

For violation of the Ohio Corrupt Activity Act

The suit lists 19 predicate acts in Ohio and 40 out-of-state predicate
acts.

The suit demands a trial by jury.

Ace says Obama is almost certainly not named in the action, but let’s face it, Obama is irrevocably tied to this radical organization.

RBO: In a misleading statement, Obama’s site claims “ACORN never hired Obama as a trainer, organizer, or any type of employee,” but it fails to mention Obama was an unpaid ACORN trainer, as WND first reported in August.

The Dial Tone of Deep Concern posted at 10:25 am on October 13, 2008 by Ed Morrissey

Cleveland’s Bob Frantz of WTAM 1100 wanted to ask Brian Clark, communications director for Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, about the court battles she has waged to keep from having to address allegations of voter fraud in early voting.

Why did Brunner block independent observers? Clark attempts to blame Ohio legislature in the conversation.

Got news for this Brunner, it is HER job to protect the voting process. YOU hear that Jennifer, IT IS YOUR JOB. It has become increasingly obvious that she and her team don’t give a damn about protecting the voting process. You are SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THE PROCESS.

If evidence arises that outside groups have tampered or will tamper with an election, the Secretary of State has a duty to act to prevent it, and Brunner has all the authority she needs to protect the process. Listen to the audio when he confronts Clark with actual evidence of ACORN fraud in Cleveland

Ummm, I don’t believe you when you say that the Ohio legislature didn’t prohibit observers for early voting efforts.

We all know who ACORN targets to register at the local Dollar Store or Rescue Mission. Somehow, I don’t think that they are Republicans, mmkay?

He was neither abusive nor blocking Clark from speaking, and yet Clark simply couldn’t handle the conversation.

Ok, Earth to Clark, it is YOUR job to answer why your Boss does what she does.

Clark hung up because Clark has no answer to Frantz’s questions.
