Election Frauds

Five Democrats, including the Chairman of the St. Louis Democrat party were convicted of vote fraud. Oddly, almost every newspaper that carried the Jim Suhr, Associated Press story, fails to include these two critical paragraphs.

State records showed that tens of thousands of dollars [$67,000 to be precise] were transferred from the St. Clair County Democratic party to committee members in East St. Louis days before the Nov. 2 election. Party leaders said it was for legitimate expenses, including rides to the polls for people without cars.

AND,

In March, three other precinct committee members and a precinct worker each pleaded guilty to a related count of vote buying. They are awaiting sentencing.

And, not so incidentally, you have to go to Yahoo news to get the complete AP story. As of 3:00 pm PT, Google only carried one story on it. Nor is there much media attention on Ralph Nader's election coordinator's conviction for fraud, nor the trials in Louisiana for election fraud.
