A scandal-plagued Democrat prosecutor in Minnesota has announced she is bringing charges against James O’Keefe, founder of O’Keefe Media Productions, and Cam Higby, for an election system flaw-exposing stunt there.
They posed as Muslims and confirmed that Minnesota allows a single person who is a registered voter to “vouch” for up to eight more people, who are not registered, so they are allowed to have their votes counted.
The announcement came from Mary Moriarty, now the Hennepin County attorney.
She said the charges are for “unlawful voting and identity theft” and claimed, “Polling places are the heart of our democracy. Any attempt to disrupt or deceive our election workers will not be tolerated.
It was because O’Keefe dressed in Muslim garb and went to a polling station during the primary, asking about other people, not registered, having their votes count.
He was told he was their ID.
O’Keefe asked about the vouching system: “I can vouch for them. They are not registered…” and he was told, “That’s okay. That’s fine. Yeah!”
“If you’re all in the same precinct and you are already registered, you can vouch for them as ID. Eight people,” he was told.
