Why is LaRose asking Ohio to investigate voter fraud cases that prosecutors believe have no merit?

[RandySF]

In his hunt for unsubstantiated widespread voter fraud, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose has accused county prosecutors of purposely ignoring his referrals of possible election rigging. On the other hand, law enforcement officials are offended by his “baseless attack,” explaining the secretary’s “cases” of fraud have no merit.

The Republican secretary, despite touting that Ohio is the “gold standard” of elections, is blaming county officials for not pursuing alleged fraud.

There is no widespread fraud, which is why there is a lack of convictions, according to Ohio Prosecuting Attorneys Association’s Lou Tobin.

“When the prosecutor chases it down, it turns out there’s nothing there,” Tobin said.

Despite this, LaRose’s team complained in a letter to Attorney General Dave Yost that prosecutors have not taken up possible election fraud referrals.

1. Let me explain it to you

Sherrod Brown is up for reelection in a very red state. Que in lies about immigrants in Springfield and create false stories about election security and you can scare enough Magats to the polls. Defeat Brown, win control of the Senate and continue to do things to fuck over America.

2. "Why is LaRose asking Ohio to investigate voter fraud cases.."

Because he knows that for the Republicans to win they have to cheat.* So they have to make
up stuff in order to stop certain types of people from voting.


* Even in Ohio and they are doing it in Texas right now too.
