ACORN documents uncovered
Today's ACORN story via Big Government involves Oklahoma:
A Republican state legislator released documents Tuesday which he says show the community-organizing group ACORN focused on helping Democrats in three legislative races in the November 2008 election and had developed a game plan to "take power" in Oklahoma within five years.Multimedia

The documents, which include legislative district maps and various forms, were recovered from computers abandoned by ACORN workers in Oklahoma City, said Rep. Mike Reynolds, R-Oklahoma City. Also found was a script apparently used in Houston to go door-to-door to encourage voters to vote for Barack Obama in November 2008."They say they're not political, but one of the subdirectories was called political action plans," Reynolds said. "It was their political plans to take over key targeted races in Oklahoma City to show how powerful they are."
