As a Swing State with a few important races in 2010, Ohio will be an even more important state than usual. An Ohio blogger has been tracking ACORN and what they're up to and doesn't like everything he sees. Check it out.
Back in October, US House Representative Darrell Issa (R, CA-49) released news that his office had, in its possession a document from Ohio ACORN offices which documented the byzantine progressive "community organizing" group's plan to influence Ohio state and national elections. Issa is the Ranking Member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
The document, entitled "OHIO 2007-08 Political Plan" was written by Katy Gall, Mari Engelhardt, and Jeremy Mitchell. Gall has served as the "Ohio ACORN Head Organizer" since 2005, according to LinkedIn.
Not to mention George Soros's state secretaries of state project: http://spectator.org/archives/2009/12/04/soros-eyes-secretaries

amazing, i never want to hear a lib talk about haliburton ever again unless they start off the critique by stating that acorn should be shut down, audited, and have its 501 c3 status taken from it.

If someone is looking to make their mark as a reporter, a la O'Keefe, there's likely lots of fun to be found in the Head Start program as well.
Just sayin'.

From Sissy's link in the first comment:
"A group backed by Soros is gearing up to steal the 2012 election for President Obama and congressional Democrats by installing left-wing Democrats as secretaries of state across the nation. From such posts, secretaries of state can help tilt the electoral playing field.
This is, of course, the same Soros, the same hyperpolitical left-wing philanthropist who makes no secret of his intention to destroy capitalism. In an interview with Der Spiegel last year, Soros said European-style socialism "is exactly what we need now. I am against market fundamentalism. I think this propaganda that government involvement is always bad has been very successful -- but also very harmful to our society."
The vehicle for this planned hijacking of democracy is a below-the-radar non-federal "527" group called the Secretary of State Project. The entity can accept unlimited financial contributions and doesn't have to disclose them publicly until well after the election."
(but do read it all)

If memory serves me right there is a a French warrant for Soros regarding financial irregularities. Why hasn't he been extradited?

Ohio in 2010 will elect a Governor, Secretary of State and Auditor, which will determine the control of the the Reapportionment Board. The current Auditor is a Republican, but the Gov and SoS are Dems. Beyond that there is an open Senate seat as RINO George Voinovich is retiring, probably because all real Republicans hate him. At least 3 Congressional districts will be hotly contested because the Democrat incumbents are in districts that voted for McCain.
In 2009 ACORN was caught registering fake names (e.g. Mickey Mouse) and there were some misdemeanor charges.

The main stream media with the exception of Fox ignored it by donkey decree. No, it was not adequately covered nor will it ever be as long as the doneys and people like osama hold sawy.ACORN could steal money out of a Salvation Army can and the media would report it as a Salvation Army donation.
