LA Times: ‘Fired’ RNC Consultant Sproul Now Hiring for GOP GOTV Campaign in THIRTY States

Share article:

On Thursday, we reported that the companies of Nathan Sproul, the man at the center of the GOP Voter Registration Fraud Scandal, are still at work for Republicans in some 10 states. That, despite previous claims by the RNC that they’d fired his company, Strategic Allied Consulting, after fraudulent registration forms the firm collected on behalf of the Florida GOP were discovered in 12 counties across the state late last month, and reports that employees of the company destroyed Democratic registration forms in other states.

The RNC, which had a $3 million contract with Sproul (a paid political consultant of Mitt Romney’s), claimed they fired his company — the one Sproul says he created at the RNC’s request, due to his long reputation for having been accused of doing the same thing in elections going back to 2004 — because they had a “zero tolerance” policy for those involved in election fraud. Nonetheless, as detailed yesterday, several other companies of his, including one, Issue Advocacy Partners, with a nearly identical website to Strategic Allied Consulting, was found to be still operating in a whole bunch of states.

We had identified 10 such states in yesterday’s report: Alabama, California, Georgia, Wisconsin, Iowa, Louisiana, New York, New Jersey, Oregon, and Virginia (with former Sproul associates reportedly at work in Ohio.)

Tonight, however, Joseph Tanfani at LATimes is reporting that, in fact, Sproul “is now hiring workers for a voter canvassing operation this fall in as many as 30 states“…

    On the Strategic Allied Constulting front, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement released some documents on the matter. View here: http://www.tampabay.com/blogs/t...nsultants1.pdf

    Key takeaway from this is that Strategic Allied Consulting has a business address of 45 North Hill Drive, Suite 100, Warrenton, VA.

    Who else has a business address at 45 Nortth Hill Drive? American Crossroads, Karl Rove and Ed Gillespie’s 527 group.

    My comment in The Guardian

    Well kept secret in US media re. Republican National Committee’s plans to steal votes again.

    Even the so called progressive websites censor comments about election theft. Greg Palast wrote a book about it. Bradblog is getting more and more coverage. Brad Friedman continues to consistently expose the right wing shenanigans. Oh, the criminality is showing obvious desperation as the right wing tries to win votes by telling the American people to expect nothing from their tax dollars.

    Heres the 527 IRS filing for Ameircan Crossroads. Note that the Warrenton address is identical to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s address for Strategic Allied Consultants, above. http://forms.irs.gov/politicalO...8;formType=E71

    I thought that Sproul and his comapnies were headquartered in Arizona. So why is one of his companies tracking back instead to the Warrenton,VA-based Holtzman-Vogel-Josefial “law firm” of ex-RNC political operatives and bamboozlers?

    Probably because American Crossroads, Strategic Allied Consulting, and other sham organzations are part of the same Rove or RNC coordinated “black bag” operation.

    Holtman-Vogel pulled the strings in much the same fashion for Swift Boat Veterans For Truth in 2004.
