Election Fraud 2004: What happens in Vegas.... 

Last night I heard David Boies, Gore’s mouthpiece in Gore v Bush, on Fresh Air. He predicted something like this would happen. I give you the whole article because it’s short, and in case you live in Vegas I include the link. And so it begins….

Voter Registrations Possibly Trashed
George Knapp, Investigative Reporter


(Oct. 12) -- Employees of a private voter registration company allege that hundreds, perhaps thousands of voters who may think they are registered will be rudely surprised on election day. The company claims hundreds of registration forms were thrown in the trash.


Anyone who has recently registered or re-registered to vote outside a mall or grocery store or even government building may be affected.


The I-Team has obtained information about an alleged widespread pattern of potential registration fraud aimed at democrats. Thee focus of the story is a private registration company called Voters Outreach of America, AKA America Votes.
The out-of-state firm has been in Las Vegas for the past few months, registering voters. It employed up to 300 part-time workers and collected hundreds of registrations per day, but former employees of the company say that Voters Outreach of America only wanted Republican registrations.


Two former workers say they personally witnessed company supervisors rip up and trash registration forms signed by Democrats.


"We caught her taking Democrats out of my pile, handed them to her assistant and he ripped them up right in front of us. I grabbed some of them out of the garbage and she tells her assisatnt to get those from me," said Eric Russell, former Voters Outreach employee.


Eric Russell managed to retrieve a pile of shredded paperwork including signed voter registration forms, all from Democrats. We took them to the Clark County Election Department and confirmed that they had not, in fact, been filed with the county as required by law.


So the people on those forms who think they will be able to vote on Election Day are sadly mistaken. We attempted to speak to Voters Outreach but found that its office has been rented out to someone else.


The landlord says Voters Outreach was evicted for non-payment of rent. Another source said the company has now moved on to Oregon where it is once again registering voters. It's unknown how many registrations may have been tossed out, but another ex-employee told Eyewitness News she had the same suspicions when she worked there.


It's going to take a while to sort all of this out, but the immediate concern for voters is to make sure you really are registered.


Call the Clark County Election Department at 455-VOTE or click here to see if you are registered.


The company has been largely, if not entirely funded, by the Republican National Committee. Similar complaints have been received in Reno where the registrar has asked the FBI to investigate.
