New York Election Official ARRESTED For Election Fraud

It’s everywhere around us, all the time…

It has been said that if you find one cockroach in your house, there are a multitude hiding in your walls—sometimes hundreds.

According to sources, a Republican election official in New York has been arrested for allegedly running a fraudulent absentee ballot scheme.

Jason Schofield is alleged to have submitted at least 8 absentee ballots during a local election and now faces 12 felonies…

So what am I trying to get at here? Why is this relevant?

The main takeaway that I want to communicate here is that this type of behavior is rampant. It crosses party lines and can be seen at all levels of our political system.

We have a problem with the system and that system seems to attract the worst people—never the best.

We have brought you many of these stories before and just remember—these are the ones they actually catch…

Here’s more on the story:
