In a press release sent out last night, the campaign announced that it had established a voter fraud hotline to handle the "many reports of possible voter fraud" that they've gotten, including "serious allegations of fraud, voter intimidation and voter bullying." Brown continued: "To facilitate collection of this material for law enforcement or legal review, we thought it best to establish a centralized number where people could call, anonymously if need be, and leave information. We encourage any citizen who has a concern to call this number."
The release also says that the campaign intends to sue for copies of voter registers from the Division of Elections so they can compare the number of voters who signed in with the number of ballots. According to Brown, the DOE said it was "too busy" to provide copies, so "the Campaign will be forced to ask a judge in Juneau to order the state to produce these registers."
Murkowski campaign manager Kevin Sweeney dismissed the claims, saying that "for the Miller campaign, it's become desperate time."
"He's making accusations without giving any meat to those accusations," Sweeney said.
Isn't it great when Republicans turn their tactics on their own? You see, in the Republican vocabulary, voter fraud means not only poor, darker-skinned people voting, but it also means "when a Republican loses, I will cry 'voter fraud' because I know the Republican should have won". The only problem with that is since both candidates are Republicans, neither could have lost, and if one did lose, it was certainly because of "voter fraud" on the side. And it goes 'round and 'round.
Keep it up Joe. There is no rift in the Republican Party.
