Kentucky sees increase in homeless voters (raises concerns about potential election fraud)

If you feed the ACORNS, corruption will come.....
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Kentucky election officials have reported an increase in the number of voter registration forms from the homeless, raising concerns among some about potential election fraud.

After the small increase, State Board of Elections Executive
Director Sarah Ball Johnson wrote in a memo to county clerks last
week that applications should be approved if they have "homeless"
or "place to place" listed as addresses.
Boone County Clerk Kenny Brown said Tuesday he fears the policy
could lead to vote fraud. He objected to the longstanding procedure
in a letter to state election officials.
"While I can certainly understand the good intentions of the
policy and the effort not to disenfranchise or prevent a truly
homeless person from the voting process, I find the policy totally
unacceptable because of the huge potential for fraud," Brown said
in a letter.
Johnson had no immediate comment. Her memo, sent Thursday,
didn't disclose how many voter registration forms had been
submitted from people who are homeless.
Kentucky's chief election officer, Secretary of State Elaine
Walker, said they have no exact number, though she termed it "a
handful ... not a flood."
Brown, in his first year as county clerk, said he was surprised
the policy has been in place in Kentucky for more than a decade.
"I found it kind of shocking that nobody had questioned this,"
he said.
Walker called it a non-issue.
"If you can identify any incident of voter fraud that has taken
place as a result of this procedure then it's definitely something
we will look into," she said.
Brown insists that potential for fraud exists, even if no fraud
has been documented in the past.
Republican Secretary of State candidate Bill Johnson said he
believes the policy violates a state law that requires would-be
voters to list their place of residence to ensure that they're
entitled to vote in a particular precinct.
"I am sensitive to the plight of the homeless," Bill Johnson
said in a statement. "However, I am equally sensitive to the need
for honest elections. If an address cannot be determined, then a
person should not be allowed to vote. It's that simple."
