Voter registration fraud investigations point to Arizona group with ties to left-leaning orgs

 Evidence from the voter registration application fraud cases has stunned Pennsylvania over the past week, leading all the way to Arizona in a private for-profit industry that tries to register voters across counties and has increasingly raised legal concerns.

The Pennsylvania attorney general's office announced Thursday, "Apparent attempts to submit fraudulent voter registration forms in Berks, Lancaster, Monroe, and York counties have been defeated. The Office of Attorney General is working with the respective county officials to investigate those responsible for this conduct." Additionally, Cambria County has found fraudulent voter registration applications.

"Pennsylvania authorities are investigating an alleged fraudulent voter registration scheme and named a radical leftist consulting group, Field Media Corps, as the organization submitting fraudulent registration forms. These announced investigations raise serious questions: Who is funding these efforts? Is the group active in other states? Is there any connection to leftist dark money groups? These are serious allegations that deserve an immediate and robust investigation to determine if laws were broken. If so, those responsible must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," the statement continued.

"The RNC Election Integrity team is closely monitoring these investigations. The most important election in the history of our country is four days away. These investigations must be done immediately so Pennsylvanians - and Americans across the country - can have faith in the process and confidence in the results. Voters deserve transparency and accountability in our elections." 60% of recent registrations fraudulent Meanwhile, in Lancaster County, Pa., prosecutors said last Friday they had uncovered a large-scale scheme to submit fraudulent voter applications that were collected at shopping malls and other locations.

One of the recommended reforms is "Protect the integrity of the voter registration process." "Voters should be able to trust that voter registration groups will properly handle their registrations and personal information," the report reads.

"States should establish standards for the handling and prompt return of voter registration applications, require groups engaged in voter registration drives to complete official training, and register with the state." "Procedures should be put in place to sanction VRD organizations that repeatedly or intentionally produce inaccurate or incomplete voter registrations, or otherwise violate election laws. Compensation for voter registration activities on the basis of a quota or per registration should be prohibited," the report continued.

HEP Vice President Chad Ennis told Just the News on Friday that third-party voter registration organizations are a "Problem for a lot of reasons," from committing fraud by inventing fake people to making mistakes on voter registration applications.
