Think "True The Vote" will mention this guy? I doubt it...
SHOREWOOD, Wis. A Shorewood man has been charged with voting multiple times in multiple elections.
Robert Monroe is a health insurance executive and on his LinkedIn page boasts, "I love the thrill of the hunt, leading teams and developing new business."
Milwaukee prosecutors said he takes the lead in the number of multiple votes cast. He's charged with voting illegally at least a dozen times using relatives' names and addresses.
According to the complaint, the investigation started in Waukesha, where investigators wanted to know why Monroe's son had both voted in Waukesha and applied for an absentee ballot at the Shorewood Village Hall.
Police questioned Monroe's son about the Shorewood absentee voter application. The son said he'd never seen it. Suspicion then turned to his dad since it listed his father's address.
Shorewood's clerk said the state uses a computer system to detect duplicate voters.
"You can register in one community and vote once. If you try to register in another community, we will catch it," Shorewood clerk Sherry Grant said.
While there's no way to know whom he voted for, WISN 12 News has learned Monroe donated money to state Sen. Alberta Darling. Prosecutors said he voted twice in Darling's 2011 recall election, five times in Gov. Scott Walker's recall election and once in another state.

(13,349 posts)what party was getting the votes. It seems to me that what cases there actually are would even out anyway. We just hear something like "seven documented cases in Milwaukee" or whatever. That leaves people on the right to assume that all (and all the ones that weren't caught) were votes for Democrats. That really pisses me off!

(6,817 posts)I think a very popular and long standing meme in conservative circles is about how many DEAD PEOPLE voted for Obama, The implication being it was enough to swing his last election.
I have never seen any links or discussion on DU for this, which seems to be "conventional wisdom" for those that loathe Obama and liberal progressive Democrats.
Just wondering......
