:::::::::I'm trying to be patient here, HelpJazz. A citation isn't needed. You may think it is, but you clearly aren't thinking too rationally at the moment. A citation isn't needed because the example you gave is erroneous. You wrote ''If he meant that ACORN contributed 1 or more votes fraudlently, as you read the sentence, then he needs a citation''. This doesn't need a citation because it is completely, transparently obvious that fraudulent votes obtained by this organisation were going to go totally or by overwhelming majority to Obama. Therefore one doesn't need a citation that Mr X. of Acacia Avenue voted fraudulently for Obama; the case is proven beyond reasonable doubt by the likelihood of the way the votes went. Enough. Finis.

::::::::::But ACORN also took votes for McCain, not just Obama... soooooo fraud works for both sides?? At least include mcCain's campaign! (I still think a 2 day block would be nice for mini trumpet boy... the way he stalks and insults editors is really disturbing if you check his contributions T_T) [[User:Ema|Ema]] 17:46, 6 November 2008 (EST)

Bugler: It may be completely, transparently obvious ''right now'' that ACORN's fraudulent votes would have counted for Obama, but what about the long-term viability of this project? People reading this page don't just include those who are currently paying attention to the American election. What about teenagers who are not yet politically aware? Or people five years from now who won't remember all the specifics? Assume for a moment that you're a new user reading about ACORN for the first time when you see this page. Does it tell you everything you need to know and not rely on unsourced common knowledge? --[[User:WPalmer|WPalmer]] 18:00, 6 November 2008 (EST)
