RNC Paid over $7 Million to Company that Tore Up Democratic Registrations
A Voter Registration organization called "Voters Outreach of America" claimed to be non-partisan, but was actually the efforts of REPUBLICAN CONSULTING FIRM Sproul & Associated Inc. and was funded by the RNC.

They opperated in many states, including FLORIDA and OHIO, and THOUSANDS of voter registrations from Democrats are believed to have been destroyed. They would set up shop in grocery stores, malls and public libraries where no one would suspect their intent.

FOLLOW THE MONEY...WHO HIRED SPROUL & ASSOCIATES to collect and DESTROY the registrations of Democratic voters? Maybe this story didn't seem as sinister when it was reported in September & October, but now that we know they STOLE the election, this is very suspicious indeed. ISN'T THIS MORE PROOF OF FRAUD?

Between July 14, 2004 and November 11, 2004, THE REPUBLICAN PARTY made 22 payments to Sproul & Associates totalling $7,332,128 for services including Voter Registration and Political Consulting.

STORIES THAT APPEARED BEFORE THE ELECTION:

The I-Team has obtained information about an alleged widespread pattern of potential registration fraud aimed at Democrats. The focus of the story is a private registration company called Voters Outreach of America.

Two former workers say they personally witnessed company supervisors rip up and trash registration forms signed by Democrats.

"We caught her taking Democrats out of my pile, handed them to her assistant and he ripped them up right in front of us. I grabbed some of them out of the garbage and she tells her assisatnt to get those from me," said Eric Russell, former Voters Outreach employee."

4. Pro-Republican organizations seem to have a habit of misrepresenting
themselves to the public. Hill Research is one that should be listed in the Demopedia when it gets running again. Over the phone, they'll tell you they're non-partisan, but a trip to their webpage says otherwise:
