Did Scott Walker aide Jill Bader commit voter fraud?

If she voted for her boss in Wisconsin, she did.

Or such would be the verdict of the authors of the MPD Special Investigations Unit report on 2004 "voter fraud," a document penned in part by a right wing ex cop. 

Why does the Brawler say that?

Because the report devoted five  pages (49-54) to the scandal of campaign workers voting in the 2004 election and then going back to where they came from. While these campaign workers may have met the minimum standard to vote in Wisconsin -- residency for 10 days or more prior to an election -- they fell short of language under Wisconsin 6.10 (1) "without any present intent to move" or language under 6.10 (8) that states "no person gains residence in any Ward or election district of this state while there for temporary purposes only."

Given that Jill Bader, per her twitter page, plans to move to Washington DC (presumably to work for professional politicians) after a jaunt through Australia, clearly she intended to be in our great state temporarily.

The unsanctioned cops report is taken as gospel by voter fraud scare mongers (though it's unclear how many actually read the stale, thin piece). If they take it seriously, they will call for Jill Bader to be  brought up on charges if she in fact voted for Scott Walker.

UPDATE: In comments, Z-Dub notes his searches found no sign of Jill Bader registering to vote in WI.

I saw Ms. Bader's tweet and thought "...and don't let the screen door hit yer ass on the way out..." She has an illustration of that ugly brown bag right next to her toothy smile on that twitter page. Just disturbing.

I have a few questions:
1-Is the editor in place at MJ Sentinel the same one now as then?
2-Does Wisconsin already have a wiki somewhere on editors, reporters, newspapers to document gross journalistic infractions against the "fourth estate" - such as that crap anonymously sourced tale on "voter fraud" that made the front of the MJ Sentinel?

I'd wish for something as good or better than sourcewatch.org

Oh, now she wants to work for a professional politician.

According to the voter public access website, Jill Bader isn't registered to vote in Wisconsin, at least not from what I've found.

The willingness of the Journal Sentinel to work hand-in-glove with the Republicans promoting the lie that there is systemic voter fraud in Wisconsin, as a way of promoting Jim Crow through the back door, is one of the great shames of that paper, ranking right up there with its failure to take on Joe McCarthy.
