Vote-Fraud Undercover Videos made a Difference, Work by
Project Veritas coincided with plunge for Dem candidates
Project Veritas’ James O’Keefe notes that his organization
did an undercover video about possible votefraud in Kentucky, and Democrat
Senate challenger Alison Grimes went from a four-point poll lead to a 16-point
loss.
In Arkansas, Democrat Mark Pryor was polling down seven
points before a Project Veritas’ undercover video, and he lost by 17 points.
In Colorado, incumbent Democrat Mark Udall was trailing by a
small margin but lost by three points after Project Veritas’ work in that
state.
And in North Carolina, considered a tossup Senate seat in
the 2014 race, Democrat incumbent Kay Hagan went from a two-point lead to a
two-point loss to Republican Thom Tillis after videos released by Project
Veritas.
So does the undercover work of guerrilla journalists like
O’Keefe make a difference?
He thinks so, for several reasons, and so do others.
In an interview with WND/Radio America, O’Keefe explained
local media outlets pay attention when there are allegations of vote fraud
against their candidates, especially if there is video to back the claims.
“The local media makes all the difference. In all these
races, Denver Post, Charlotte Observer, all these newspapers have covered the
videos … showing that there is fraud, that these people are breaking the law.
And I think that’s what makes the difference. It’s not about the national media
now. It’s about the local media, and that’s where we often fight these
battles.”
He said in the interview with Radio America’s Greg Corombos
that his work simply is revealing the truth, not endorsing or campaigning.
“Bloomberg News had an article where they credited Veritas
with making the difference in these close Senate races, but we did videos in
North Carolina recently and as you point out, the attorney general was issued a
complaint by the Republican Party,” O’Keefe said. “What’s remarkable is the
local media coverage in these different states. After the campaign manager was
fired last week after encouraging a noncitizen to vote – that was our
undercover reporter posing as a noncitizen – every local TV station was at the
press conference.
“So I really think it’s a new type of journalism that has
prompted local media to pay attention while the nationals don’t care. I think
the local media is where it counts. I think people are fed up with the idea of
fraud. In Colorado, it wasn’t just them nodding their heads. In Colorado, the
official actually identified a location where our undercover reporter could
actually go to retrieve mail-in ballots in the trash. She said go to the
‘ghetto,’ was her word, and take the African-American and Mexican ballots
because ‘they don’t care.’
“These are really outlandish statements that we caught on
tape that I think shocked people. In North Carolina, it was a one or two-point
differential that could have made the difference,” he said.
O’Keefe said he believes the revelations dissuade some
people from trying shenanigans.

This video investigation was a
God-send. O’Keefe showed that the voter
fraud that occurred in 2008 and 2012 was still going on. Apparently the Republican Party continues to
be “legally barred” from pointing out Democrat voter fraud. This makes me wonder
what good they are. If they don’t figure
out a way to get this court order lifted, they should close shop and get out of
the way.
