"Rampant corruption"? Do you know how big this org is? How many volunteers, employees?
Three people, 2000 bad voter reg cards submitted. Did Mickey Mouse get to actually
vote in any elections?
What was the result of the indictment?

What was the result of this indictment?
So, we have a huge, nationwide voter registration group with tons of employees and even more volunteers, and the best the "Hate Acorn" site [pretty fair and unbiased, right?
] you quoted as reference for "rampant corruption" and "widespread voter fraud all across the country" can come up with is the above?
A bunch of lazy people filling out Mickey Mouse on voter registration cards? (indeed fraudulent, and I certainly don't dismiss it, but not remotely related to any actual election fixing-voting)
Do you have anything else on where ACORN advised and supported people to do this, etc? That it was an organizationally-driven culture or requirement? Among the thousands and thousands of ACORN members?
Because that hasn't come out in all the ACORN intense examination during the pre-election runup in 2008-2009, from the far right media screaming about it. All they could come up with was the above.
I personally think that's kind of anemic on a national scale, but I grew up in the Chicago area, so my perception of what constitutes "rampant widespread corruption and widespread voter fraud" is probably a bit skewed.
Look, you're free to think what you wish about ACORN, but personally, the whistles hurt my ears
