RNC "Voter Fraud" firm is actually a swing state VOTER SUPPRESSION operation & part of the meme

The RNC had paid the firm $2.9 million this year to conduct voter registration drives in five swing states -- Colorado, Florida, Nevada, North Carolina and Virginia.

The move came after the Palm Beach County, Fla., elections supervisor discovered 108 potentially fraudulent registration forms submitted by the GOP consulting firm, including suspected phony signatures and home addresses that matched those of a gas station, a medical building and a Land Rover dealership.

This is not the first time Sproul has been linked to voter fraud allegations. He has been accused of tampering with Democratic voter registration forms over several election cycles across multiple states.

Notice that they purposely followed the rightwing narrative about "voter fraud". This is no accident - the reason for them is to create copy for the Fox News B.S. about voter fraud.

I saw these headlines popping up during my sporadic news checks at work. Florida....Virginia....etc. All swing states.

Then it hit me - they don't care about this firm getting busted the prime directive is to get "Voter Fraud" (less syllables that "Registration Fraud&quot in front of everyone's eyes.
The point is to justify the weird results on November 6th IF their voter purge operations in Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Virginia actually work.
Romney declaring "I will win Pennsylvania" today is simply another part of this.

I hope I don't sound paranoid or giving them too much credit ("3 level chess" and all that) but this kind of operation that they are clearly coordinating is how sociopaths work. No one knows they are in a game until is the 2nd quarter and they can't win the game.

THIS is the only thing that worries me - that the voter purge works - because that is really their only hope for the Presidential race. And down ticket will follow.

wonder if he went off script, maybe his cadre said wink wink PA and he took it literally, and good point about how this might help us if the results are off, I don't even like losing a few votes though since downticket can be decided with so few

this same bunch of scumbags did to ACORN,and got away with it. Pappentoino warned us about these folks. KKRove and friends are still running around out there and planning more of this shit. Every thing in the Willard campaign runs threw or by Rove and Gilsppe before it goes down.


Hey Holder,were the fuck are you? Oh forgot,can't step on a fellow Coviving and Burling friend.
