ACORN appears to be recklessly disregarding Ohio laws and adding thousands of fraudulent voters to the state’s roles in the process
ACORN, the liberal group notorious for allegedly trying to inflate voter rolls through fraudulent practices, has seen its last election in Ohio.
Other documents show that the Bush Justice Department failed to prosecute ACORN voter registration fraud of non-citizens in Phoenix, Arizona in 2007 because the allegations that led to the opening of the investigation were 'unverifiable.'
serious allegations of corruption and voter registration fraud by ACORN as well as the Obama administration's decision to shut down a criminal investigation without filing criminal charges.
After nearly two years of continual attack by the extreme right -- aided by many who should have known better -- ACORN has now been exonerated in many forums. The dedicated volunteers and organizers who have worked with ACORN will continue our efforts to create a more fair and just nation.

The court's ruling and ACORN's vindication in other forums make clear why the protections of our Constitution are so dear -- all of us suffer when a politically motivated frenzy feeds a rush to judgment
In fact, ACORN's efforts to encourage voter participation were not only legal, they were successful in helping low income and minority citizens to participate in our democracy ... That is something everyone should applaud.
It would appear from the press release and old documents issued by Judicial Watch that Department of Justice, mostly under the Bush administration, looked into complaints about ACORN from two local Republican officials and didn't find any evidence of wrongdoing
Given President Obama's close connections to ACORN, including his campaign's hiring of the ACORN's Project Vote organization, it seems rather obvious why Attorney General Holder has failed to seriously investigate these and other alleged ACORN criminal activities.
For reasons unrelated to the lawsuit, ACORN was winding up its staff operations in Ohio anyway ... So there was no practical reason for us to spend time and money litigating this suit further, even though it was baseless and intended to harass us.
It carries a great deal of significance because, in the absence of that term, ACORN could simply have shut down but reopened the next day as WALNUT or CHESTNUT or whatever and done the exact same thing ... So our goal was to affect permanent change.
The videos were in fact a hoax, and the Times was duped. Its readers deserve to know as much--and ACORN, which suffered serious political damage as a result of the false stories, deserves an apology.
So those really are new and different things, although a number of people who played a big role in them played a role in ACORN for a long time.
They're new corporations, incorporated with different boards that include some people that used to be involved with ACORN but also prominent community members from labor and public life ...

These documents reflect systematic voter registration fraud by ACORN

But in the footage made public--initially by a new website, BigGovernment.com--ACORN employees raised no objections to the criminal plans. Instead, they eagerly counseled the couple on how to hide their activities ...
