Attorney General Eric Holder's ridiculous partisan argument that voter fraud is a minimal problem and voter ID laws are unnecessary just exploded in his face, thanks to James O'Keefe and Project Veritas.
In the above video, a white male walks into the polling place at gives his name as Eric Holder, gives Holder's address and promptly gets his ballot for the recent DC primary, no questions asked.
When the young man then suggests that he should show his ID, the poll worker, in compliance with DC law, says: “You don’t need it. It’s all right. As long as you’re in here, you’re on our list, and that’s who you say you are, you’re okay.”
The young man replies: “I would feel more comfortable if I just had my ID. Is it alright if I go get it?" The poll worker agrees.
"I’ll be back Faster than you can say Furious,” the young man quips on his way out, a nice poke at Holder's Fast and Furious scandal involving American weapons illegally sold by the Department of Justice to Mexico's drug cartels.
You'll also note that at no time does the young man actually say he is Eric Holder, so he's not illegally impersonating him. He just said his name, and that was all it took to get a ballot and vote illegally, had he desired to.
AG Holder's vicious attack on voter ID laws in states like Texas has just one purpose - to delay the laws being implemented until after the 2012 election. The Supreme Court has already ruled on this issue, with the majority opinion authored by Left-leaning Justice John Paul Stevens in a judgment that upheld the constitutionality of Indiana’s tough ID requirement 6–3 in 2008.
Another avenue for voter fraud commonly used almost exclusively by Democrats is absentee ballots. Several of the new laws add security provisions to counteract widespread fraud in this area.
A new Pew study shows that 1.8 million dead people are still listed on the rolls, and their information is freely available to partisan Democrat groups like ACORN.
Just last year, Mississippi was rocked by a scandal when Lessadolla Sowers, a member of the NAACP’s Executive Committee in Tunica County was sentenced to five years in prison for fraudulently casting absentee ballots for ten other people.
The national media ignored the story, but it's one reason why 62 percent of Mississippi’s voters approved a photo-ID law last November that's also being attacked by Eric Holder's Department of Justice. Not only did it pass statewide, but in counties where the majority of voters are black....which gives the lie to claims by partisan hacks like Eric Holder and NAACP head Benjamin Jealous that voter ID laws discriminate against African-Americans.
Actually, the fact that people like these are fighting so desperately to keep voter ID laws tied up in courts gives you an indication of exactly how necessary voter fraud is to the fortunes of the Democrats. They can't win near as many elections without it. And they know it.

Yes and who committed the voter fraud? A conservative of course.
Right-Wingers are despicable jokes. Breaking the law and then saying see I could break the law doesn't validate the bogus conservative narrative that voter fraud is occurring.
But, of course, voter fraud is occurring, it's simply that Republicans are the ones doing it.
Thanks!
Stupidity much, Gene?
If you bothered to read this article and the links, you'll see that the guy in question walked out supposedly to get his ID and never returned, so he didn't actually commit voter fraud.
That's what Democrats like you do, because it's the only way you can win and get some of the morons with a small d behind their names elected.
