The Las Vegas office of the lefty group Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, better known as ACORN, has been raided as part of a voter fraud investigation. According to the Associated Press:
Secretary of State spokesman Bob Walsh says ACORN is accused of submitting multiple voter registrations with false and duplicate names.
The Las Vegas Review Journal has more specific details about what’s suspected:
The warrant was part of an ongoing investigation into suspected voter registration fraud. Employees are suspected of using false addresses or false names, including those of former Dallas Cowboys, according to the secretary of state’s office.
ACORN has been busy working on Get Out The Vote efforts for the Obama campaign. Hired workers have been going door-to-door encouraging people to support Obama and getting many who’ve never voted before registered to vote for him. Apparently nothing, including voter fraud, will stop them from ensuring victory in November.

I sent this story to CNN a day or two ago as a news tip. No reply, and no coverage by them.
This is even uglier than four years ago when the Dems slashed the tires of the vans at Republican headquarters to prevent them from ferrying senior citizens to the polls.
