ALIPAC E-mail Says Midterm Elections Could Be The Last Time The Conservative Vote Will Count In U.S.

Raleigh, North Carolina - On Monday, in a last desperate attempt to create hestieria before Tuesday's election, William Gheen, president of the national organization called Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) is saying illegal immigrants are expected to vote. Gheen believes that massive numbers of Illegal immigrants will actually vote on Tuesday by citing several reports in October 28, which WSBTV and the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported that a recent comparison of jury duty records and voter registrations found hundreds of non-citizens registered to vote and hundreds actually voting! The reports and Gheen failed to include in the e-mail, if anyone rather alleged non-citizens involved were ever charged and prosecuted for illegally voting. The lack of charges and prosecution of non-citizens voting draws questions about the reports Gheen is citing.
Gheen says Democrats will use Chicago Style Machine tactics, "It appears to me that Obama and the Democratic political machinery that roll vans through Hispanic neighborhoods on Election Day want those illegal immigrants voting in 2010." He is claiming and racially identifying that Hispanics expected to vote in large numbers on Tuesday are illegal. Which until now, Gheen is just crying wolf and is desperate to stop or deter U.S. registered Latinos voters from exercising their right to vote.
ALIPAC is calling on allied organizations, Tea Party groups, and conservative campaigns and activists to transport like minded conservative voters to the polls on Election Day. This will compensate for voter fraud and illegal immigrant voters being fielded by the Democratic political machines. "America is about to experience our first Chicago Style national election... as this is the last time their (conservative) vote will ever matter because this will be the case, if Obama gives illegal aliens Amnesty and voting rights," said Gheen.
Last week, FoxNews reported that an anti-immigrant group Ban Amnesty Now, or B.A.N., sent an e-mail entitled "6 Days to STOP Illegals from Stealing the Election!" The e-mail had the signature of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who is the honorary co-chair. The e-mail referred to unions the White House and Latino groups as "open-border criminals determine to undermine," our elections.
Sean McCraffrey, president of B.A.N. had to retract the first massive e-mail above after Arpaio objected and hadn't approved or signed such a massage. Arpaio stepped down as co-chair of the group as a result of the controversy. McCraffrey admitted it was a mistake to use Arpaio's name without his permission, but stands by the message alleging illegal immigrants are expected to vote on Tuesday's election.
On the B.A.N. website, it reads "Barack Obama has made a conscious decision not to enforce federal immigration laws including looking the other way while ILLEGALS VOTE!"  So far, McCraffrey hasn't provided any proof that illegal immigrants have voted or will attempt to vote.
In this case, B.A.N. lacks credibility and common sense to understand that undocumented immigrants can't vote and actually don't vote. This type of e-mails and massage content by B.A.N. creates hestieria among anti immigrant and known racists groups looking for an excuse to react, target and discriminate against Latinos in general.
FoxNews also reported that Gheen, president of ALIPAC had said, "...the Obama administration is doing everything it can to make sure as many illegal aliens vote in 2010, although that is a violation of federal law." Gheen provided no proof that illegal aliens will vote or have voted in prior elections.
The U.S. Department of Justice has sent 400 federal election observers to 18 jurisdictions in 30 states in an attempt to monitor and keep anti-immigrant groups from targeting and intiminating Latinos from voting.

Update: On Tuesday, William Gheen from ALIPAC lacking proof of voter fraud appears on Foxnews alleging Illegal immigrants will be voting during midterm elections at video link. http://bit.ly/cEJ9P4

Republican Linked Groups Sending E-mails Illegals Will Steal Election By Voting In Arizona And Other States

Latest intimidation geared at U.S. Hispanics to keep them from voting in midterm elections and USDOJ sending federal election observers to 30 states.

Phoenix, Arizona - Several groups linked or support the Republican Party have sent e-mails trying to ignite voter suppression of minority groups, especially U.S. Latinos from getting to the polls. FoxNews reported that last Monday, an anti-immigrant group Ban Amnesty Now, or B.A.N., sent an e-mail entitled "6 Days to STOP Illegals from Stealing the Election!" The e-mail had the signature of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who is the honorary co-chair. The e-mail referred to unions, the White House and Latino groups as "open-border criminals determine to undermine," our elections.
Parts of the e-mail read: "FACT: "The illegal registration of alien voters has become pervasive," says Kris Kobach, the attorney who helped Arizona write SB 1070. The problem exists across the nation, bolstered by open-borders criminals determined to undermine our elections, including the unions, La Raza... even the White House...
FACT: The same pro-amnesty criminals working in states like Washington to turn out pro-amnesty voters have been working to register illegal voters all over the nation! In one Arizona congressional district, more than 65% of the 3,000+ new voters registrations submitted by Mi Familia Vota and One Arizona were found to be invalid - many of them to non citizens.
...Our grassroots army of VOTER FRAUD PREVENTION VOLUNTEERS will stand vigilant across the nation. We will be the first and strongest line of defense to ensure that only legal citizens vote on November 2nd, but to do this, we need your help today."
Sean McCraffrey, president of B.A.N. had to retract the first massive e-mail above after Arpaio objected and hadn't approved or signed such a massage. Arpaio stepped down as co-chair of the group as a result of the controversy. McCraffrey admitted it was a mistake to use Arpaio's name without his permission, but stands by the message alleging illegal immigrants are expected to vote on Tuesday's election.
On the B.A.N. website, it reads "Barack Obama has made a conscious decision not to enforce federal immigration laws including looking the other way while ILLEGALS VOTE!"  So far, McCraffrey hasn't provided any proof that illegal immigrants have voted or will attempt to vote. In this case, B.A.N. lacks credibility and common sense to understand that undocumented immigrants can't vote and actually don't vote.
McCraffrey's desperate attempt to cry wolf and trying to gain support for his insane campaign to keep Illegal immigrants from voting is just insane and shouldn't be taken seriously. This type of e-mails and massage content by B.A.N. creates hestieria among anti-immigrant and known racists groups looking for an excuse to react, target and discriminate against Latinos in general.
McCraffrey confirmed that about 500 election voter fraud monitors have volunteered for B.A.N., including 100 in Arizona.
Only U.S. Citizens can vote in elections. Last week, MALDEF who filed a lawsuit in 2004 challenging an Arizona law requiring citizenship documents to vote announced that a Ninth Circuit Court federal appeals judge ruled in Gonzalez v. State of Arizona that people registering to vote don't have to proof they are U.S. Citizens, striking down state law Proposition 200 requiring proof of citizenship when registering. Although, the deadline to register in Arizona expired before the decision was rendered by the judge.
On Thursday, Mi Familia Vota, a voting rights group requested the U.S. Department of Justice (USDOJ) to send election observers to assure Latinos that can legally vote won't be harrassed or kept from voting by groups attempting to keep Hispanics from voting.
On Friday, the USDOJ decided to send 400 federal observers to 18 jurisdiction in 30 states in an attempt to keep anti-immigrant groups from targeting and intiminating Latinos from voting.
Another group known to oppose immigration reform, Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) also forwarded e-mails alarming followers of alleged illegal immigrant voters. FoxNews reported that William Gheen, president of ALIPAC had said, "They're sending them (federal election observers) out because the Obama administration is doing everything it can to make sure as many illegal aliens vote in 2010, although that is a violation of federal law." 
Gheen provided no proof that illegal aliens will vote or have voted in prior elections. Both Gheen and ALIPAC's credibility come into question for making false allegations, that illegal aliens will vote. One thing is to actually catch and prove an undocumented immigrant has voted illegally, but to presume undocumented immigrants will vote illegally to steal an election is outrageous and unprofound.
Both B.A.N. and ALIPAC actions only shows to what lenghts these type of anti-immigrant groups lower themselves too and fabricate voter fraud by undocumented immigrants, to try and keep Latinos from voting on November 2nd.
