Second O’Keefe Video Shows Dem Operative Boasting About Voter Fraud [VIDEO]

The latest release from James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas shows a Democratic operative apparently boasting about engaging in voter fraud and using various tactics to avoid prosecution.

The video primarily features Scott Foval, now-former field director for Americans United for Change, describing various tactics he allegedly uses to engage in voter fraud. Based on the video, Foval is apparently describing tactics for bringing in voters from out of state.

WATCH:

Project Veritas’ undercover reporter apparently got Foval to talk by pitching his own, made-up idea for having people illegally vote around the country using fraudulent pay stubs and home addresses.

In the video, Foval says he tries to think like a prosecutor, and structures his get-out-the-vote methods to be as difficult to prosecute as possible.

“I think backwards from how they would prosecute if they could, and then try to build out the method to avoid that,” Foval says.

Foval then talks in detail about bringing in people to vote, but having them all arrive in individual cars in order to avoid literally “busing” people in to vote.

“It’s a pretty easy thing for Republicans to say, ‘Well, they’re bussing people in!'” Foval says. “Well, you know what? We’ve been bussing people in to deal with you fuckin’ assholes for fifty years, and we’re not going to stop now … I mean I grew up with that idea. They used to bus people out to Iowa. If they needed people there we’d bus people out to Iowa.”

Foval says to avoid the high profile that comes with using a literal bus, he instead organizes voters to use their own cars, are given rental cars to use, or are even assisted in obtaining used cars at auction.

“You use shells,” he says. “Use shell companies. Cars come in from one company, the paychecks come from another. There’s no bus involved, so you can’t prove that it’s en masse, so it doesn’t tip people off.”

In another part of the video, Cesar Vargas, founder of the illegal immigrant advocacy group Dream Action Coalition, expresses an apparent willingness to help facilitate a voter fraud scheme. The Project Veritas reporter pitched the fraud scheme as a way to empower immigrants left disenfranchised by Republican policies, and Vargas seemed open to that reasoning.

“Let’s see who the next president is. If it – if it’s Donald Trump, it even makes more sense,” Vargas says. “If it’s Secretary Clinton, and the voter ID laws are losing and we have much more opportunity to vote, and we have immigration reform, it’s not going to be as significant, right?”

On the other hand, another man in the video, Bob Creamer of Democracy Partners, is wary of helping Project Veritas with their made-up scheme, saying it sounds like a “big voter fraud scheme.”

The new video comes one day after a previous O’Keefe video showing Foval and other activists taking credit for disruptions at Donald Trump rallies, including violent protests in Chicago that resulted in a Trump rally being canceled entirely. In the opening of Tuesday’s video, O’Keefe accuses the mainstream media of ignoring his investigation because they fear retaliation from a Hillary Clinton White House.

O’Keefe has said more videos will be released in the run-up to election day in November.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
