I Don't Get Credit For Democrats" Registration Raises More Questions
Earlier this week a KOLO 8 News Now report raised questions election officials termed "alarming" about a voter registration drive in Reno last week.
Our report contained cell phone video of a man appearing to claim he was working for one party and wouldn't get paid for turning any forms for the opposing party.
The video, which has since gone viral, shows a man outside Reno's main post office last Friday, the final day for on the street registration..
It shows the man asking a prospective voter, who is taking the video, for favor-- register either as a Republican or a Non Partisan.
"I don't get credit for Democrats," the man says apologetically. "We're working for the Republican party, I have to get two an hour, but if I bring back a Democrat I don't get credit."
After our story aired we heard by email from another man who says he is working for the same organization and said everything in the video was true. "Democrat signed forms were HIGHLY frowned upon," he says (the emphasis is his) "to the point of being near terminated or terminated if we returned with too many. We were specifically instructed to target republican voters."
