Sheriff Joe Joins Anti-Voter Fraud Crusade
Sheriff Joe Arpaio recently wrote an e-mail to supporters asking them to "join me today and help me STOP ILLEGALS FROM STEALING THIS ELECTION!"

Arpaio, the controversial Sheriff of Maricopa County in Arizona, has railed against illegal immigration, but is under investigation by the Justice Department due to allegations that his anti-illegal immigration techniques are discriminatory.

Lydia Guzman, director of the nonprofit immigrant advocacy group Respect/Respeto, told TPMMuckraker that Arpaio's e-mail was inappropriate because his office would handle many elections-related activities.

"When this Sheriff sends out e-mails like the one he sent out, it poses a problem," Guzman said. "He should not be the person to enforce or oversee the protection of the election because he's the one who is going to be disenfranchising the electorate."

Here's the e-mail:

6 Days to STOP Illegals from Stealing the Election! Dear Friends,
I'm writing today because there is just one week to go in this year's historic elections, and I need your help to make sure that America's elections are just that... for Americans!

FACT: Thousands of illegal aliens have already organized and taken to the streets, campaigning in some of the closest Senate and House races in the nation to turn out votes and voters for pro-amnesty, open borders candidates!

STOP ILLEGALS FROM STEALING THE ELECTION!

FACT: "The illegal registration of alien voters has become pervasive," says Kris Kobach, the attorney who helped Arizona write SB1070. The problem exists across the nation, bolstered by open-borders criminals determined to undermine our elections, including the unions, La Raza... even the White House.

STOP ILLEGALS FROM STEALING THE ELECTION!

FACT: The conspiracy between U.S. President Barack Obama and Mexican President Felipe Calderon goes far beyond the two joining forces in their lawsuit against Arizona's SB1070, anti-illegal immigration legislation. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer put it right when she explained the Obama-Calderon conspiracy the media recently:

"The Mexican government does not want our borders secure...They have made it very, very clear... Calderon believes that he is helping out the administration and they are looking at it in a political mode to bring in newly registered illegal immigrants to register to vote."

STOP ILLEGALS FROM STEALING THE ELECTION!

FACT: The same pro-amnesty criminals working in states like Washington to turn out pro-amnesty voters have been working to register illegal voters all over the nation! In one Arizona congressional district, more than 65% of the 3,000+ new voters registrations submitted by Mi Familia Vota and One Arizona were found to be invalid - many of them to non-citizens.

Nothing is more important in protecting the United States today than protecting the sanctity of our votes. Sadly, we are not just fighting criminals from other nations. We are fighting our own president and very determined individuals in America who want to disenfranchise U.S. Citizens of their votes.

At BANAMNESTYNOW.COM we aren't going to let them. Our grassroots army of VOTER FRAUD PREVENTION VOLUNTEERS will stand vigilant across the nation. We will be the first and strongest line of defense to ensure that only legal citizens vote on November 2nd, but to do this, we need your help today!

* * *

November 2, 2010 is one week from today and we have a tremendous job ahead of us that we can't accomplish without you!

Together we have already stopped Obama's "Dream Act" nightmare! Together we've already stopped La Raza and the White House from punishing Arizona by trying to move baseball's 2011 All-Star Game from Phoenix. Together we've added hundreds of thousands of new voices to the MAJORITY of Americans who support secure borders and oppose amnesty for illegal aliens.

...and together we'll stand strong and protect American elections wherever we can!

But "together" starts with you, today. So please join me today and help me STOP ILLEGALS FROM STEALING THIS ELECTION!

Thomas Jefferson reminds us "The price of liberty is eternal vigilance." America needs us now, more than ever, to do our part, to stand up for our nation, to defend her against those who would sacrifice her for mere political partisanship.

Thank you in advance for your contribution ... And thank you to all who have registered to volunteer on Election Day!

For America, your friend,

SHERIFF JOE ARPAIO

Hon. Co-Chairman, BANAMNESTYNOW.COM

1. The man is vile. And sadly, damn near untouchable.
I don't want to move, but it's getting increasingly difficult to stand the political climate here.
