Urge DOJ To Keep Probing Voter Fraud]]> by Zachary Roth]]> 2008-11-01T04:51:59Z 2008-11-01T04:51:59Z He spoke at my law school in Atlanta last spring about voter fraud. It was a debate, and a noteworthy Atlanta attorney read him the riot act in front of a friendly audience; but, that was not the most interesting thing I took away. (BTW, he used to chair the Fulton County, Georgia, Republican Party.)

He and I spoke after the event about partisanship and whether it was important for our elections to be run by non-partisan civil servants.

Here is what he said to me, verbatim:
"No one can be completely non-partisan."

I guess he was really talking about himself.
And that's all you need to know about Mr. Von Spakovsky.
