“Tomorrow we’re gonna elect Earl Taylor as the D.A. so he won’t prosecute you if you vote twice,” Cravins stated.
And Taylor won his fourth term on Nov. 4.
So not only did this major encourage voter fraud, it seems he conspired their DA to actually push people to commit a crime.
SWAMP: Former State Senator Don Cravins, now a Louisiana mayor, told voters a day before Election Day to vote twice. His son is Sen. Mary Landrieu’s chief of staff in Washington
ENDANGERED: Sen. Mary Landrieu, the last remaining Democrat on a US Senate ballot, faces an uphill climb in her runoff election on Saturday, but one of her Louisiana advocates said voters should cast more than one ballot each for her
‘Tomorrow we’re gonna elect Earl Taylor as the D.A. so he won’t prosecute you if you vote twice,’ Cravins said.
Taylor won a fourth term on Nov. 4.
FAMILY CONNECTION: Don Cravins Jr. is Sen. Mary Landrieu’s chief of staff in Washington
Cravins’ remarks were met first by laughs and then by wild cheers as he told the crowd to ‘vote number 99’ – Mary Landrieu’s ballot-line number.
Landrieu’s campaign did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
State Sen. Elbert Guillory introduces the Cravins footage on video, calling it ‘shocking, even for the sad swamp of Democrat politics here in Louisiana.’
Guillory is among a handful of black U.S. politicians to leave the Democratic Party, announcing in 2013 that he had become a Republican.
Cravins, a former Louisiana state senator, faces a runoff election for another term as mayor against another Democrat on Saturday.
Landrieu’s runoff against U.S. Rep. Bill Cassidy, however, is the main attraction in Louisiana. Cassidy is polling far ahead and a victory by the Republican would give the GOP a total of nine additional seats in the Senate in 2015.
The Black Conservatives Fund PAC, a group that recruits right-leaning African-American political candidates, obtained the video of Cravins’ remarks and shared it with MailOnline ahead of an 11:00 a.m. press conference in Louisiana.
During that same speech, Cravins told voters that Landrieu would vote with President Barack Obama ’97 per cent of the time,’ in a jiu-jitsu moment calculated to turn a frequent Republican criticism into an advantage.
That video clip went viral, energizing some in the GOP.
After word spread Monday morning that the group of center-right African-Americans would release another video clip, Landrieu’s campaign announced its own press conference with the senator in Baton Rouge, timed to coincide with the public unveiling.
In an unusual move, the campaign’s press advisory did not specify where the event would take place; reporters were told to RSVP to learn that it would take place at a Hilton hotel.
Black Conservatives Fund senior adviser Ali Akbar wrote Monday on Facebook that Landrieu had ‘announced she’s having a press conference now at the exact same time as we are having ours.’
‘I kid you not. She’s scared and I bet she lawyered up.’
He said in a statement that Cravins had encouraged voters ‘to violate state and federal law by committing voter fraud. He is compromising the integrity of our voting process and likely violating federal and state law himself.’
They are all corrupt to the core!
