New Hampshire voter-fraud probe into Sanders campaign expands after latest Project Veritas video
(I shortened the length of the thread title for length.)

The New Hampshire voter-fraud investigation into Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders’ campaign has grown with the release of a second undercover video showing out-of-state staffers saying they exploited the law in order to vote in the Democratic presidential primary.
New Hampshire Assistant Attorney General Stephen G. LaBonte said Thursday he had seen both hidden-camera videos released this month by Project Veritas Action, including the latest footage showing top staffers saying they had registered to vote using the campaign office’s address in Manchester, an apparent violation of state law.
The second video focuses on Hugo Palma, Mr. Sanders’ regional field director, who says on hidden camera that he had registered using the field office address in order to vote in the New Hampshire primary even though he lives in Colorado Springs.

Other staffers said the practice was commonplace. New Hampshire’s election law says that voters “must be domiciled” in the city or town in which they register and must sign an affidavit when registering agreeing that their domicile is “that place, to which upon temporary absence, a person has the intention of returning.”
In the second video, Mr. Palma made it clear he has no intention of returning to live in New Hampshire, saying, “This place sucks.”

“Why the [expletive] would I want to come back to New Hampshire? This place is a [expletive] show,” he says.

Bernie won't like this. I wonder how long until Bernie starts cleaning house.
 
wow he had better start firing people now and turning them over to authorities.
that is just completely amazing.

I doubt it would affect the election outcome as those votes won't count but still.
he had better get a better control of his staff.

if he can't keep his own staff clean imagine what his presidency would be like.
 
If Bernie does fire them, I bet Cruz will double their salary to come over and work for him. LOL!

Well it is the Mooney Times....I mean Washington Times reporting this.
 
dude won the state by a landslide, and it wasn't because of voter fraud.

No, voter impersonation is an absurdly overblown issue created by the right-wing power structure to try and reduce Democrat votes, and voter ID laws are a massive overreaction to a trivial number of cases of actual voter fraud via impersionation. Conservatives, of course, favor massive government overreactions to non-issues, when it suits their purposes.

Voter ID laws don't stop the sort of fraud alleged in this article, nor do they stop the most common source of fraudulent votes, voting by absentee. (which are typically along the lines seen here, voting in a state you don't actually live in) Strangely enough, there's no nationwide call to crack down on this type of voter fraud. Coincidentally, of course, absentee ballots swing conservative.

I'd be willing to bet a nickle that this conspiracy story IS being pushed by a right wing group/interest.

Any takers?
