DC Prosecutors Look For a Way To Charge O’Keefe

Earlier, we wrote about James O’Keefe III’s DC sting, in which an operative goes into a polling place, asks whether they have an Eric Holder on the rolls, and declines a ballot offered to him by the poll worker. Stung, the DC Prosecutor’s office is now looking for a way to find O’Keefe and company guilty of making false representations to poll officials.

As CommanderKoolAid points out, this is going to pose difficulties, because at no point in the process did the operative affirmatively state that he was Eric Holder. He merely asks whether there’s an Eric Holder on the rolls, and the poll worker asks him to sign next to Holder’s entry . . . which he does not do. Obviously, he walks out without having cast a ballot, too, stating that he would feel better about the process if he could just go get his ID.
