Four ACORN Members To Face Voter Fraud Trial
PITTSBURGH (AP) - Four former ACORN workers in western Pennsylvania will face trial on charges that they forged, illegally solicited or illegally filled out voter registration cards before the November election.
That’s after a court hearing in Pittsburgh on Friday.
Twenty-year-old Pittsburgh resident Eric Jones waved his preliminary hearing. Three others were held for trial: 23-year-old West Mifflin resident Alexis Givner and two Pittsburgh residents, 21-year-old Ashley Clarke and 28-year-old Mario Grisom.
Prosecutors charged seven ACORN workers in May. One had already been ordered to stand trial and two others had their preliminary hearings postponed.
ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has also come under scrutiny for registration irregularities in other states.

BO’s flunkies will put pressure on the judge to drop the case.
Heh… I see some people here throwing themselves on their swords for the good of the cause.
Is a nice start but the ACORN malfeasance runs much much deeper than these four. It is a sinister group with directives running all the way to the top of the elected officials. The New York Times was also complicit with the conspiracy of keeping the actions of ACORN buried. Further insult is that our tax dollars fund ACORN.
It’s nauseating isn’t it?
My thoughts exactly, they need to fry these guys supervisors all the way up the chin
ROUND ZEM UP. Put them in camps. And watch them turn. Whitey rounding up acorns isn’t racist is it? Acorngate should be the republicans number one battle. My fault republicans and battle do not belong in the same sentence.
This like prosecuting low level Mob mules.
If they can get through to Tides and beyond (most likely a good part of it is international) they will be able to breakdown the backbone of this and disseminate the cult.
Are they going to nullify the votes and redo the election?
They won’t nullify the votes or redo the election, but to identify and expose thoudands of people that are corrupt is a crisis we should not waste.
What are the chances that there will be ACORN people at this weekend’s Obama Healthcare promotion events all over the US?
This Saturday, June 6th, supporters like you are organizing Health Care Organizing Kickoffs all over the country. This is your chance to join up with local supporters, get the facts, make a plan for building support in your neighborhood, and start putting that plan into action.
Sign up to attend a Health Care Organizing Kickoff near you.

Just don’t answer the charges like the new black panthers and everything will be dropped by the DOJ……..
I have some info on acorn but having trouble sending. I was trying to send link but I don’t see it posted.
Report does not say whether the charges are state or federal, which obviously matters everything today, since Obama had federal prosecutors drop an already won case against the 3 New Black Panthers using weapons to intimidate voters.
That case was in Philly. This one is in Pittsburgh. Philly prosecutors should step up and prosecute the New Black Panthers, and pursue this ACORN case too if it is federal and gets dropped.
