Electoral Fraud.

[bluethrunthru]

One conviction and 2 investigations NFA'd in 2017. Its a crime but hardly rampant. The convicted man is named here - the rest aren't - could be the one still being investigated at the time of the article but it seems the law have it covered

Didn't know it was illegal?
In one ward he voted using his real name.
In the other ward he voted with his surname first then his first name.
Fucking shady to me.
Fact.
A friend I drink with has seen the list of who voted in the ward he lives.
Conveniently for this fella , the voting list for his ward has been misplaced.
Not been found either. Fact.
Latest weird news in this saga is a druggie stole it when they were having a cup of tea after the count.

Yeah, that sounds dodgy.

But equally, why would you bother for the sake of one vote?

Incidentally, I didn't know people could vote twice in different councils. I never registered to vote when I was at university, because I assumed that I'd lose my right to vote at home.

This geezer used his name twice.
Only reversed.
If he was so ignorant of the rules , why not just leave your name the same ?

Thats the really odd thing - one vote in a ward or constituency ?? Can you imagine how many recounts there would be? You would be bound to be found !!!

Errrrm.
This guy has interests in 32 properties.
God knows who he rents them to.
Is he registered in 5 or 6 names in each property ?
1 vote becomes many.

still adds up to @160 votes - that would lead to recounts which I'd say would find him out - I mean if they found the 2 votes he cast in this instance 160 would be tantamount to setting off a flare to advertise what you are up to. Voter fraud is such a tiny issue - the stats prove it.

What should happen in proven cases of electoral fraud in this country ?

If you have evidence of electoral fraud the first thing you do is post about it on a football forum.
