Is the  Working Families Party really a political front group for ACORN? If you Google Working Families Party and ACORN you come up with over 167,000 references. Many of those are from main stream media sources such as the New York Times and The Politico.  One such story from Ben Smith former Washington Post writer and now writing for the Politico is “ACORN, allies score big win in New York“.  The story is about New York City Primaries and allegations of voting scandal

In any case, while New York authorities say they’re looking into allegations against ACORN, the night’s election results present a complicated fact: Working Families, and ACORN, were running more or less a reform slate, and the candidates who lost were the weakest of the machine standard-bearers.

A local NYC political investigation group called Discover the Networks, investigates links between political groups. 

ACORN clearly dominates the coalition. New York ACORN leader Steven Kest was the moving force in forming the party, and WFP headquarters are located at the same address as ACORN’s national office, at 88 Third Avenue in Brooklyn, New York.

That address is also the same one that was exposed just this week in the ACORN prostitution scandal. We have many local candidates who have Working Family Parties support such as Dan Maloney in Greece, Patrick Christopher in Webster and many more running in the county legislature.  If I were a candidate and had the endorsement of ACORN groups like Working Families I would ask them if my name could be removed.
