No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Steal votes in Milwaukee, get a slap on the wrist

JSOnline’s DayWatch has not one, but two stories of the prosecutorial and sentencing results of people who stole votes in Milwaukee County during the Presidential election last year.

In story one, they report that  Marcus L. Lewis, who had been charged with five felony counts of election fraud-misconduct in office and three counts of forgery after submitting duplicate cards for the same voter on “numerous” (quote from the criminal complaint) occassions and pled guilty to one count of forgery in exchange for the dropping of the other seven charges, received 45 days in jail and a year of probation from Reserve Judge Russell W. Stamper Sr.

In story two, they report that Kevin L. Cameron pled guilty to voting while still on parole.   Assistant DA Bruce Landgraf will recommend that Cameron serve 45 days in jail despite the fact that Daryl Robinson was sentenced to 120 days in jail for the same offense.

I guess E. Michael McCan’t and his office can now put out an official price sheet for voting fraudulently – 45 days in jail or $5,000 cash.   Disgusting.
