Let Teh Voter Fraud Begin

Wisconsin is a swing state in the presidential election and they have a very close U.S. Senate election as well and so what do the liberals in Wisconsin, why cheat, of course.
From jsonline: Milwaukee election officials failed to check those registering to vote for a time this week against a list of felons ineligible to vote, and the mistake became fodder for a new round of fights over election rules.
Election workers on Tuesday retroactively checked the 204 people who registered in Milwaukee on Monday and found that none of the residents were felons ineligible to vote. But the situation made clear that voting policies will be ripe for partisan bickering from now until the Nov. 6 election.
A separate dispute Tuesday centered on guidelines that say election observers should stand at least 6 feet from the table where voters check in at polling places on election days. Also at issue was a recent decision by the state Government Accountability Board to allow those registering to vote on election day to show copies of utility bills or other proof of residence to poll workers on smartphones.
"We feel this is going to be a contentious voting period," accountability board attorney Mike Haas told the board Tuesday.
Monday marked the first day of early voting and thousands of people around the state took advantage of it. In Milwaukee, 2,369 people voted, including the 204 people who registered to vote that day.
Those registering to vote are to be checked against a list of felons who are currently under state supervision and ineligible to vote. Those checks didn't happen in Milwaukee on Monday, according to Neil Albrecht, director of the Milwaukee Election Commission.
The state Republican Party complained about the issue to the Government Accountability Board, which runs state elections. The accountability board told the election commission where it could get the felon list online, but the election commission did not have the list loaded onto city computers until late Monday, Albrecht said. http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/city-officials-failed-to-check-voters-registering-against-felons-list-ro7b2k9-175490511.html
The issue about checking for felons, or not check for them, is a statewide issue, just not Milwaukee.
Let the cheating begin.
