A jury in South Bend, Indiana has found that fraud put President Obama and Hillary Clinton on the presidential primary ballot in Indiana in the 2008 election. Two Democratic political operatives were convicted Thursday night in the illegal scheme after only three hours of deliberations. They were found guilty on all counts.Former longtime St. Joseph County Democratic party Chairman Butch Morgan Jr. was found guilty of felony conspiracy counts to commit petition fraud and forgery, and former county Board of Elections worker Dustin Blythe was found guilty of felony forgery counts and falsely making a petition, after being accused of faking petitions that enabled Obama, then an Illinois Senator, to get on the presidential primary ballot for his first run for the White House.
You may be wondering how they pulled this off.
Well, as Rick Nees explained “page after page of signatures (were) all in the same handwriting.” However, nobody picked up on it, “because election workers in charge of verifying their validity were the same people faking the signatures.”
Had a whistleblower not had an attack of conscience, they would have gotten away with it, too. Keep that in mind when Democrats say we can trust everyone to be honest and so we don’t need to take any special steps to protect the integrity of our elections.
