The Pennsylvania Republican Party wants an investigation into a promotion by Fayette County Democrats at the recent county fair to get people to register as Democrats or change party affiliation.

The GOP says the offer of Pittsburgh Steelers memorabilia and a one-night stay at a western Pennsylvania resort violated the state Elections Code .

Fayette County Democratic chairman George Rattay says when his group learned it might not be legal to link the giveaway with voter registration it was expanded to let anyone sign up who stopped by their booth, then they canceled the giveaway altogether.

"Learned it might not be legal"? So they didn't bother to check in the first place and decided to just do it?

Hmmm. Wonder if it there's an outside chance that it might be illegal to pay someone to vote in our party's primary election instead of the primary election of the other party??

Anyone who wants to can drop off a paper bag on my porch with $500.00 cash in it,
and I guarantee as God is my witness I will not vote against them or for the party opposing them in any upcoming election this month , next month, or for the rest of this year.

Any money left over after buying groceries for hungry folk in the area here
will be used to help them fight cancer or flu-like symptoms and as possible to pay their doctor's bills or deductibles.

Pikers. Here's how you make corruption work for you:


Trump campaign and Republicans paid $1.8m to companies mired in voter fraud claims

Strategist Nathan Sproul, whose staff pleaded guilty to destroying registration forms in 2012, is back on the Republican National Committee’s payroll
Donald Trump’s campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC) have paid at least $1.8m to a political operative whose roster of companies include several that have been repeatedly investigated for voter registration fraud, even as Trump has complained that the election is rigged against him.


Three employees of Strategic Allied Consulting, a firm owned by conservative operative Nathan Sproul, pleaded guilty in Florida four years ago to felony charges related to altering and destroying scores of voter registration forms. There were no formal actions against the firm.


Yet recent federal campaign finance reports reviewed by Associated Press show Sproul is now back on the RNC’s payroll, this time with a firm named Lincoln Strategy Group, a renamed version of his former firm Sproul & Associates, an Arizona-based firm that was investigated for alleged voter registration misconduct in Nevada and Oregon.


Although Sproul was never charged in the 2012 Florida case, GOP officials and Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign considered the charges against his employees alone serious enough to fire his company in 2012. The chairman of the RNC said this week he didn’t know Sproul’s firm has been rehired. Neither the Republican party nor the Trump campaign would discuss the specifics of the work Sproul or the firm is doing and in what states.

Trump thinks big. No handing out bumper stickers or team pennants. Real crooks destroy registrations and pay off regulators.

Are you going to address the OP or are you going to try and derail the thread? If you want to talk more about voter registration issues, you better be prepared to defend Motor Votor laws. It's the biggest scam going. It's how so many illegals and non-citizens are voting in our elections. But as long as they vote democrat, what's the big deal, right?

Democrats allegedly participating in voter fraud and Republicans allegedly participating in voter fraud (as was demonstrated). In other words, both of these political parties are politically corrupt and some people seem to be upset whenever this happens and they point fingers in alleged indignation. But the fact remains that both of these political parties are almost as politically and morally corrupt as the two final candidates they chose as their final nominee during the last presidential election. The truth of the matter here is, the left wing and the right wing are part of the same bird and both wings are foul.

I did. I pointed out their chintzy gifts to people registering. Real crooks spend big bucks and do major fraud.

These guys need to think big, like Trump.

Guess how many of those Trump's voter commission found? Hint: he and his commissioners don't want to talk about it, and quietly closed the commission. It took a lawsuit to get the material that's supposed to be public.

The few cases of fraud turned out to have involved Trump voters, including one Trump nominee.

Yeah, who would be dumb enough to stumble into a violation of election law?

Does Don Jr use the same face dye as his old man?

In the bottom photo he looks to be a similar shade of orange.

Mind you - the colour goes well with the axle grease in his hair.

As he grows up, I hope Baron gets fashion advice from his sisters and not his brothers. I don’t understand how all the dudes in that family can be so rich and look so terrible all the time.

You know why the commission closed? Over 40 states refused to supply any info or certain parts of the information requested. Sounds like a lot of Governors didn't want to contemplate what skeletons might be found in their closets.

Why, those crooked democrats! Wait, isn't Georgia run by republicans? (Barbarian checks)

Yes they are. So, just another republican rigging of elections. Should have known.

Yep. Confidentiality laws prevent the government from checking how you vote. And now that a lawsuit has forced Trump to release the information on what his commission was actually doing, we have another scandal in the works.

New documents reveal how Trump's election-integrity commission engaged in a political, self-promotional battle against noncitizen voting—without ever establishing that it happens.

But, in its beleaguered and brief history, the commission faced numerous allegations that it was little more than a partisan inquiry hyper-focused on potential voter fraud by noncitizens—even as it struggled to establish that such fraud happens on a wide scale.

Months after the group’s dissolution, a newly released slate of reports, emails, and meeting materials from the commission confirms the skeptical view. The cache of documents, obtained by the commission member and Maine Secretary of State Matt Dunlap after he sued to have a court release them, highlights that much of the commission’s correspondence and activities were part of efforts by a tight circle of Republican officials, activists, researchers, and journalists to identify noncitizen voters. Their efforts seem to have focused less on a number of other serious issues around election integrity than on a broader anti-immigration agenda. The documents reveal that the commission, far from the vigilant and neutral defender of American democracy that White House leadership pretended to have chartered, conducted an inquisition during its seven-month existence.

Emails released in this collection also suggest that the trio was intentionally unclear about the intended use of a massive set of voter data it attempted to compile—a request that led to multiple lawsuits and the eventual disintegration of the commission. When Kobach and the commission requested all “publicly available” election information from every state, including voters’ Social Security numbers, voting history, and party affiliation, even several Republican election officials balked at what voting-rights activists thought was a clear attempt at creating a voter-suppression data warehouse. Mississippi Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann famously told the commission to “go jump in the Gulf.”

Sounds like a lot of governors,including some republicans, took their oaths seriously.

Or maybe those governors were just following the laws of their states. A lot of the states that refused to give some of the information were deep red states. Even Kansas didn't give all the information that was requested.

Trump's intent was to gather a complete voter suppression database, but most of the states refused to go along with it. Even his chairman's own state refused to take part in the scheme. Kobach was counting on being able to cover up what was really going on, but the lawsuit ruined that plan, just as he's up for re-election in a state where he's got opposition.
