From the DNC's Protecting the Vote site.

Man, the Right is shameless. Following in the footsteps of James O'Keefe , another Republican operative tried to commit voter fraud in order to prove voter fraud exists.

First came this sensational story out of New Mexico.



An Albuquerque man says he successfully registered his dog to vote in Bernalillo County. The dog owner said he saw a voter registration booth on the University of New Mexico's campus a few weeks ago and decided to see how easy it would be to register his dog to vote. He said he was trying to expose the problems with the registration system. He said he just received the dog's voter registration card in the mail Wednesday, and it was way too easy. KOB Eyewitness News 4 contacted the Bernalillo County Clerk's Office. They said state law does not require proof of your social, your date of birth, or even your name. But they said what this man did is voter fraud.

And, of course, that "dog owner" who was just "trying to expose the problems with the registration system" is Thomas Tolbert , husband of Heather Wade. Who just happens to be a senior staffer from Republican Heather Wilson's U.S. Senate campaign. Go figure.

Another Republican proves that the only problem this country has with voter fraud is the fraud manufactured by Republicans to justify their voter suppression efforts.
