Discussion: Former Colorado GOP Chair Gets Probation For Voter Fraud

Too many excuses:

– if it was “ignorance” ([i]t was a normal and customary thing in my house with my prior wife and with Kelly (Curtis), to fill out their ballots. … I didn’t know that was illegal.), he doesn’t need to add the diabetic blackout.

– if it was the diabetic blackout, he doesn’t need to add “ignorance.”

Really? An adult man fills out the ballot for his adult, presumably competent, wife (or wives) and that’s a “normal and customary thing.”

After committing voter fraud, criminally tampering with a US election, this goober will still have the right to cast his vote in all future elections.

If you are convicted of selling a dildo in Alabama, by my (IANAL) read of the law, you can never vote again (1)(2)(3).

Seems legit.

It’s always Republicans screaming voter fraud, while committing it.

Rovism at work. Always accuse opponents of the things of which you yourself are guilty. It throws journalists a bone to keep them busy and keeps them off your scent.

He would have got away with it if he just let Hillary put him on one of those buses full of illegals

Steve Curtis, who chaired the state’s Republican Party from 1997 to 1999, has said in his defense that he filled out the ballot — and certified it with his ex-wife’s forged signature — during a diabetic blackout.

This lie brought to you by the Letter A (hole), the number 666 and The Party of Personal Responsibility…

But, if you elect a dildo in Alabama, it’s “state’s rights” and tradition…

Christian right or Muslim? That was certainly a subservient wife he had. He was the chair of the Colorado GOP? Did he grow up in America? I went to public schools in South Carolina (and Sunday schools) and I knew this was wrong when I started voting in 1972 (McGovern of course). It’s interesting that repubs yell so much about voter fraud - wonder how many other repub husbands have tried to vote for their wives?

[/quote]I’ve heard that committing voter fraud is a very common thing that happens during diabetic blackouts.

I would like if he said ‘what’ voter fraud he was talking about that the Dems committed.

Was it ACORN? Because I literally cannot think of ONE case of Dem voter fraud, but maybe “I” am out of the loop. I ‘know’ the GOP thinks the 10yr disbanded ACORN is/was doing it.

It’s like the people who cheat in their marriage are the most jealous because THEY know how easy it is to get away with it because they are already doing it!

So which is it? A diabetic blackout or he didn’t know it was illegal?

As for it “always being dems who commit voter fraud”, he’s managed to show that’s wrong.

Indeed, seems like every time I hear about fraud, it’s either a republican lying about how prevalent it is, or a republican committing it.

To be fair, I read a lot of of liberal media, so maybe I don’t hear about all those supposed dem cases (not that there are many cases by anyone in the first place). And somehow, I think this guy would be incapable of identifying such potential biases in his thinking. Most GOPers would have that problem as they don’t do the whole thinking thing too well.

Let’s analyze this incident using The GOP Voter-Fraud Checklist™

  1. Forging a signature?
    Check.

  2. On a ballot?
    Check.

  3. In an election?
    Check.

  4. To influence the outcome?
    Check.

  5. By a person of color?
    D’oh! So, so close…

Well, as everyone can plainly see, definitely not voter fraud.

Clearly, a simple mistake by a responsible citizen exercising his patriotic duty.

Nothing to see here.
