Christopher Edwards, the field director of ACORN's Las Vegas office,
brainstormed a way to motivate (AKA commit fraud) his meagerly paid
canvassers: If they turned in 21 or more registration cards in a day, they
were each paid a $5 bonus.
"But Edwards' successful "blackjack bonus" program, which he bragged about
to other ACORN offices, broke the law, state prosecutors say. Nevada bars
using quotas or cash incentives in voter sign-up efforts: Officials fear it
could lead to false registrations.
A judge here began considering today whether Edwards' former supervisor, Amy
Busefink, and the Assn. of Community Organizations for Reform Now will stand
trial on 13 low-level felonies of compensation for registration of voters."
