Democrats Busted In Major Voting Scheme
Undercover video shows astonishing illegal plot
WND
A new video from Project Veritas, the undercover investigation specialists organized by guerrilla journalist James O’Keefe, reveals Democrat activists in the state of Texas boasting about breaking the state’s election law by mining confidential records for phone numbers.
O’Keefe, whose work helped bring down ACORN, the community “organizing” behemoth for which Barack Obama worked as a lawyer, reveals in the new online posting that Battleground Texas Field Organizer Jennifer Longoria confirms on video – several times – that the group is taking telephone numbers, names and addresses from voter registration cards to keep and use to campaign for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis.
But the video quotes from Texas statutes that copying those personal details is illegal.
According to the video, Longoria explains the goal of her group, run by a former field director for Obama for America, is trying to increase the number of voters in Texas to try to raise the support for Democrats.
“So every time we register somebody to vote, we keep their name, number,” she explains. When a Project Veritas investigator asks, “That’s from the voter registration form?” Longoria responds, “That data collection is the key.”
However, according to the video, state law forbids that.
“The registrar may not transcribe, copy, or otherwise record a telephone number furnished on a registration application,” the rules state.
But Longoria explains the Democrat group takes the information, puts it in a database, and then uses it.
“So when we get to get out the vote, three weeks before, we can give those people a call,” she said.
Alicia Pierce, a spokeswoman for the Texas secretary of state, said the rule doesn’t need interpretation.
“Section 13.004 speaks for itself,” she told O’Keefe.
O’Keefe also exposed how journalists with the newspaper that revealed the addresses of gun-permit holders in the New York City area were unwilling to take a dose of their own medicine and declare their homes “gun-free zones.”
