A jury in South Bend, Indiana has found that fraud put President Obama and Hillary Clinton on the presidential primary ballot in Indiana in the 2008 election. Two Democratic political operatives were convicted Thursday night in the illegal scheme after only three hours of deliberations in South Bend. They were found guilty on all counts.

Former longtime St. Joseph County Democratic party Chairman Butch Morgan Jr. was found guilty of felony conspiracy counts to commit petition fraud and forgery, and former county Board of Elections worker Dustin Blythe was found guilty of felony forgery counts and falsely making a petition, after being accused of faking petitions that enabled Obama, then an Illinois Senator, to get on the presidential primary ballot for his first run for the White House.

I know some of you are going to say, "Who cares? Why does it matter now?"; but I have to say, "Yeah, it does matter now." Why? Because unless we fight voter fraud they are going to keep doing it. Our freedom depends on the integrity of our elections, if not, we are no better than Saddam Hussein's Iraq. Personally I would like to see these guys face execution. Strong response I know.....but then again some crimes are worthy of such a strong response...and perhaps it will send a message for future vote fraud participants to make them stop and think twice.

As the prosecutor said:

"I think this helped uphold the integrity of the electoral system," the prosecutor, Stan Levco told reporters.

“Their verdict of guilt is not a verdict against Democrats, but for honest and fair elections,” he said.

“This is a bitter sweet moment for free and fair elections," observed Ryan Nees, the Indiana born Yale “University senior who first exposed the scheme in the independent political newsletter, Howey Politics Indiana and South Bend Tribune.

Nees said the multiple guilty verdicts were "bitter, because a five-person conspiracy succeeded in illegally placing two presidential candidates on the ballot, but sweet because they were exposed, tried for their crimes, and convicted."

Neither one of them would have been on the ballot. WTH would the Democrats have done then?
