One of the favorite memes of the right wing wackos, so of course it's also one of the favorite subjects of faux news.

Even the fox "news" casters clearly don't believe a single thing they're saying.

I hope they're paid well for the ruination of any shred of dignity they once may have held.

I couldn't bring myself to watch it, but "Wisconsin recall election raising concerns of possible voter fraud" is actually one of the only true things I've ever seen coming out of FOX. I just wonder if they're concerned about Nickolaus - nah.

Voter fraud suggests that there are voters who are gaming the system by voting multiple times or voting when they're not eligible. Voter fraud, over all, is pretty much a non-issue. I don't believe an election has ever been decided by voter fraud. Election fraud, on the other hand, has without a doubt decided elections. Republicans always scream about voter fraud because it makes it easier for them to remove legitimate voters (such as in Florida). Republicans are entirely silent on election fraud because without it, they'd be a completely marginalized party right now.
