Mary Pat Flaherty @ the Washington Post is reporting a raid of ACORN’s Nevada office as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged voter fraud.
Apparently seven agents from the NV Sec of State and AG offices served a search warrant and removed boxes and computers.
(ACORN stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.)
The gist of the complaint against ACORN is that they are trying to bombard election officials with new registrations that are carelessly gathered and might enable unqualified voters to get on the rolls.
So far, proven offenses range from illegible names on registration cards to names being drawn from telephone listings or other public directories.
Here’s ACORN’s Nevada website/contact info if you are curious.
