Project Vote Strikes Again

Two felons were found registering voters in Milwaukee. That's illegal as much as it's illegal for felons either in jail or on parole to vote. Both Tonsie Wilson and Corethious Taylor both work for Project Vote. That's the operation being investigated by the Racine County district attorney for voter registration fraud. While Milwaukee Election Commissioner Lisa Artison did revoke Wilson's and Taylor's deputy registrar status, she did not say whether she would investigate if the two registered ineligible voters or if she would ask Milwaukee's district attorney to investigate. For all we know there are hundreds of false names on Milwaukee's voter rolls. All someone has to do is know the name and precinct registered and they can vote as them. Realize that voters aren't required to provide ID before voting in Wisconsin.
