Elections board testimony: ACORN pestered me into registering multiple times

"Two Cleveland men who each signed multiple registration cards as part of a national voter registration drive told the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections today they did so to help ACORN canvassers keep their jobs.

"One of the men said he was sometimes offered a cigarette or a dollar bill by workers with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

"'They would come up with a sob story when they needed a signature,' said Freddie Johnson."
