From HumanEvents.com:
A federal racketeering probe into the activities of the radical activist group ACORN is all the more urgent after the recent filing of felony election fraud charges against the group and ex-employees this month in Nevada and Pennsylvania.
And this time the spin doctors at ACORN (the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), known for its bank sit-ins and illegal squat-ins at homes slated for foreclosure, can’t hide behind the specious excuse that Republicans were behind the push to prosecute because, this time, all of its accusers are Democrats.
Two of them, Nevada Secretary of State Ross Miller and Atty. Gen. Catherine Cortez Masto, announced May 4 that the community-organizing group itself and two of its former senior employees in the state were charged with a total of 39 felony counts related to fraudulent voter registrations. This is apparently the first time that the ACORN organization itself has been charged with election-related fraud.
