In reply to the discussion: Per Rachel, Republicans have STOPPED registering voters in 5 swing states [View all]
http://www.mynews3.com/content/news/story/Voter-registration-fraud-allegation-reported-in/BL9kd0OWMUmR6pqdQfQeWg.cspx
another battleground state with apparent voter registration fraud tied to the same company
A source tells News 3 that he witnessed someone directing someone to rip up a voter registration form.
The same source says it seems similar to what happened during the elections in 2008.
According to emails obtained by News 3, the Nevada Secretary of States Office is looking into the matter.
In a statement this person gave to the Secretary of State's Office, they say they witnessed a man registering voters in Henderson and "he told her she needed to fill out another form. And when she marked democrat he told her to rip it up and fill out another form and leave party affiliation blank."
Our source was later able to fish out the form from the trash and gave us this picture.
In reporting this to the elections office, the person there told our source the forms were registered to the group Strategic Allied Consulting, the same firm hired and then fired by the national Republican Party for similar fraudulent voter registration tactics in Palm Beach, Fla., and other battleground states.
