Paid DNC staffer helps voter cast ballots in two states

by Matt Lacy –

A shocking undercover video reveals an Obama supporter assisting an undercover reporter commit voter fraud by voting for the president in two different states.

The fraud was uncovered by an undercover reporter for James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas which has captured undercover video of ACORN, a controversial national community organizing group with ties to Obama.

In the undercover video the reporter posed as a voter attempting to vote in Houston, Texas, at the Organizing For America headquarters in the state.

In an attempt to show the organization has a pattern of encouraging voter fraud the reporter made two separate visits to the headquarters, once on Sept. 7 and again on Oct. 1.

In the video she tells Organizing for America Field Director Stephanie Caballero she had a voter registration card in Florida, but wants to vote a second time in Texas.

In the first visit Caballero says, “Keep it! Keep it! So you’re gonna vote, umm, yeah, vote by ballot?”

The undercover reporter then told her, “I’m gonna vote by ballot, and then I have mine here (in Texas) too.”

She then emphasizes the importance of doing everything possible to ensure that Obama wins.

“It really concerns me that if we don’t do everything we can that we’re not gonna win.”

Caballero then goes on to instruct her on how to commit voter fraud by saying, “You have to make sure because after 60 days you can send in your application to vote by mail ballot.” She then says, “I can print that out for you.”

The reporter then asks, “And there’s no way they’d be able to cross reference the ballots?” Caballero responds, “If you voted twice?”

After the reporter says, “yeah,” the campaign worker says, “I don’t know this. That’s not my expertise.”

When the reporter said she didn’t want to do anything wrong, the worker laughed and said, “Oh my God this is so funny. It’s cool though.”

Project Veritas discovered that Caballero is not a volunteer but is actually a salaried employee of the Democratic National Committee, the parent group for OFA. Organizing For America was founded after Obama’s inauguration to help mobilize supporters to pressure lawmakers to pass his legislative priorities.

What is amazing is the same reporter goes back a few weeks later and meets with Caballero again. She asked about the procedure for contacting Florida for an absentee ballot even though she was going to vote in Texas.

“What you’ll have to do is you’re going to call in to Florida.” Caballero told her. “Are you going to do what I think you are going to do?” When the reporter says she is going to vote twice, the campaign director laughs and says, “You’re so hilarious” and then proceeds to print out her ballot.

She then tells the reporter that if anyone questions her about it to say, “I don’t know.”

A similar incident happened in New York where a reporter told Organizing For America he was going to vote in Minnesota and New York to ensure Romney loses both states. The workers enthusiastically offer to help him register to vote in New York and one worker even offers to turn the registration in for him even after he told them he would be voting a third time in Connecticut.

The Gazette previously reported how Project Veritas revealed how easy it was to commit voter fraud when a white man was able to obtain a ballot to vote in a Washington D.C. election by using Attorney General Eric Holder’s name. Besides being a well-known national figure, Holder is black.

The young man gave the poll worker Holder’s name and was not asked to produce any type of ID or confirm any information such as the address on file, despite being asked multiple times if the worker needed to see some proof of his identity.

The poll worker said, ““You don’t need it. It’s all right. As long as you’re in here, you’re on our list, and that’s who you say you are, you’re okay.”
