The Fraudulent Fraud Squad

The death of the American Center for Voting Rights (ACVR) says a lot about the Republican strategy of raising voter fraud as a crisis in American elections. Presidential Adviser Karl Rove and his allies, who have been ghostbusting illusory dead and fictional voters since the contested 2000 election, apparently mounted a two-pronged attack. One part of that attack is at the heart of the current Justice Department scandals. But the second prong may have proven more successful. This involved using ACVR to give "think tank" academic cachet to the unproven idea that voter fraud is a major problem in elections.
