 Minnesota Majority delivered a letter to Secretary of State Mark Ritchie today, asking him to immediately respond to the findings of an analysis of the voter file recently completed by the organization. The analysis identified many inconsistent and suspicious records within the file, including thousands of new registrants that voted in past elections, thousands of voters over 100 years of age and thousands of voters residing at vacant addresses.
The findings of Minnesota Majority’s research raise serious concerns about the integrity of Minnesota’s voter file. While there may be plausible explanations for some or all of the apparent inconsistencies, these findings should warrant a complete and comprehensive verification of voter records.
This comes at a time when there are voter registration problems surfacing across the nation. Last week U.S. District Judge George C. Smith ruled that Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner must perform verification required by the Help America Vote Act. That includes matching new registrants' information against information in databases maintained by the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles or the Social Security Administration.
A copy of the letter to Secretary of State Mark Ritchie together with the findings of the analysis project are available here. |

This is a great opportunity for our government to earn our trust by correcting mistakes and putting policies in place to prevent them from happening in the future.
Unfortunately I can only anticipate bureaucratic double-talk. |

This is a disturbing national issue and growing by the minute!
The revelations this past week about ACORN voter registration fraud should cause Senators and Congressman alike and Attorneys General of each state to immediately begin an investigation of all records. As citizens about to begin the most important vote in our history we should expect and demand nothing less of our elected representatives.
I don't hesitate to say that their attitude will be one of in-action and business as usual which is just another reveiling indication that they no longer work for us. If that is their response, I for one will do my little part to THROW THE CLOWNS OUT with my vote on Nov. 4th!!
What say you?

| I say we may be outnumbered by stupidity and unamerican ideas. No enforcement, no dicipline, confusion... and all indoctrinating. I think there is much more going on then we are aware of within this country and state. And what we are aware of is sickening. |

| I checked Dex phone listings for my single family address and found four new people listed, Javier Delgado, Mary I. Delgado, Mary E. Delgado, Mary B. Oakes (no such person). How do we check voter rolls to see if they appear? |

 "Green Hell explains why Americans can't afford to fall for Al Gore's `the debate is over' line on global warming. While we're all for the environment, Green Hell explains why we need to oppose the environmentalists."
--Fred Barnes, Executive Editor, the Weekly Standard
"Green Hell is the `inconvenient truth' on extremist, growth-killing environmentalism. A must-read for those interested in keeping America free and prosperous."
--Steve Forbes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Forbes
"Regardless of whether you believe global warming is a fraud, the fact is that the current depression, the past spike in oil prices, and the coming technology of electric cars are all going to solve whatever problem exists. Liberals want to use climate change as an excuse to take over the economy and regulate everything and this book exposes their plans."
--Dick Morris, FOX News commentator and former political consultant to Bill Clinton
"This book describes why the world can't afford to fall for global warming alarmism and environmental hysteria. Steve Milloy shows how to avoid the environmentalists' vision of our future."
--VACLAV KLAUS, President of the European Union and President of the Czech Republic
"Free market capitalism is still the best path to prosperity. Green Hell is a must-read for anyone who wants to keep America on that path and away from Soviet-style command-and-control environmentalism."
--Larry Kudlow, Host, CNBC's The Kudlow Report
