Remember this is the Scott Walker who wants to make voting in WI more difficult because of all the "fraud" he and his rich friends think that Democratic voters (read minorities) cause:

According to those records, Monroe was considered by investigators to be the most prolific multiple voter in memory. He was a supporter of Gov. Scott Walker and state Sen. Alberta Darling, both Republicans, and allegedly cast five ballots in the June 2012 election in which Walker survived a recall challenge.
According to the John Doe records, Monroe claimed to have a form of temporary amnesia and did not recall the election day events when confronted by investigators.
Monroe voted in his own name, using his Shorewood address, as well as that of a home owned by his parents in Milwaukee. He also voted in the 2012 presidential election from Shorewood and then drove to Lebanon, Ind., where he voted again. He also owns a home there. This double voting allegedly occurred after he was made aware of a double-voting investigation involving his son.

(5,075 posts)When the Democrats claimed there was no need for voter ID, they cited lack of proof that voter fraud ever happens.
Charlie says this proves that fraud happens so is evidence for the need of voter ID.
Soooooo, Charlie, one instance of fraud versus thousands of people disenfranchised?
Really?
What are you afraid of Charlie?

"While Republicans have been more to blame than Democrats, partisanship runs both ways
