TROY -- A Rensselaer County grand jury indicted City Councilman Michael LoPorto and county Democratic Elections Commissioner Edward G. McDonough for forging and possessing absentee ballots in the 2009 city Working Families Party primary.
The two Democrats pleaded not guilty Friday to dozens of felony counts of second-degree forgery and second-degree criminal possession of a forged instrument.
LoPorto and McDonough were handcuffed when state troopers escorted them into the courtroom for their arraignments.
The indictments were handed up to state Supreme Court Justice George J. Pulver Jr. of Greene County at the Rensselaer County Court House. McDonough faces 38 counts of forgery and 36 counts of criminal possession of a forged instrument. LoPorto faces 13 counts of forgery and 29 counts of criminal possession of a forged instrument.
"This indictment accuses Mr. McDonough and Mr. LoPorto of criminal acts which contributed to the misappropriation of the voting rights of 50 citizens of Rensselaer County," Special Prosecutor Trey Smith said.

They preyed on poor people--the very same people that Democrats purport to "be for." Whoda thunk--Democrats stealing the votes of poor people? ::) ::) ::)
And, the "Working Families Party"--anyone remember which organization they're a front for? (Hint to DUmb**** lurkers--Oak trees grow from them.)

Oh you must have that all wrong. When democrats are involved in this sort of thing, they are never identified as democrats. Oh wait, must be one of those right wing rags printing the story.

But it is an isolated incident, not an example of how the DemonRats are as a whole. That is the story some bozo said on Fox News this morning.

I sure as hell hope it was sarcasm! If not, did he manage to say it with a straight face? If so, somebody needs to cast him in a movie! He's Oscar material!

I'll stay on this one, and I'm sure that Carl will be watching. To add to the Troy case, I saw on RedState a report that the Mechanicville Mayor election had a bunch of absentee ballot fraud as well, and this might have the WFP/ACORN fingerprints all over it, too.

He was some DemonRat party member from that area of New York .

Working Families Party...filthy Commies one and all.
I'm just glad this didn't get swept under the rug, ala Chicago. Mutual backscratching by cronies, you know.
