EVENTS IN ORDER OF OCCURRENCE ******************************************* 1. North-West Metro Forum on Voter Photo ID With Tom Emmer, Dan Severson
DescriptionFair, reliable elections are the cornerstone of our republic, but this critical foundation for our right to self-government is being undermined. The North Metro chapter of Minnesota Majority is hosting a Voter Photo ID forum to educate the public about problems in Minnesota's elections and some solutions. Representatives Tom Emmer and Dan Severson co-authored a bill to require photo ID at the polls and will be the featured speakers at this free, informative event. Voter fraud in Minnesota is not a myth. Election officials look the other way, the press is loathe to report it and law enforcement is reluctant to investigate, but it's happening. Minnesota Majority has strong evidence and has been pressuring county attorneys to investigate and prosecute. Ramsey County has convicted at least 26 people for fraudulent voter registrations and votes so far, this is not nearly the full extent, but it's the most prosecutions ever pursued following a Minnesota election.
