The New Mexico Republican Party claims to have found 28 fraudulent voters in a Democratic primary earlier this year.[1] The vote took place in House District 13, where no Republican ran for the seat.
28 out of 92
The state GOP says they looked at the data from 92 newly registered voters in the district, finding 28 that had "missing or inaccurate Social Security numbers or birth dates. In some cases, more than one voter was registered using the same Social Security number. In others, people who the Republicans said had no Social Security number on public record were registered."[2]
ACORN?
Before the primary, ACORN was one of the organizations registering voters in the area, leading many to link them with the voters in question. State Representative Justine Fox Young (R-Albuquerque said, “This is a bombshell. We now have undeniable proof that a significant number of fraudulent voters were cast in Democrat primary races for the New Mexico state legislature as a result of ACORN’s voter registration fraud.”
One of the voters in question was a person by the name of "Duran Duran." While decreed as obvious voter registration fraud, it later turned out that Duran Duran is listed in the white pages for Albuquerque.[2]
