Registration rolls dont get purged often, but what is a surprise is it appears about 164 of those people actually did vote in both states in 2012 like the 17 fairfax cases under investigation. Robin saks speaks for Election Integrity maryland. It tells me that our election system is really an honor system right now leaving the door wide open for voter fraud, leaving the door wide open for noncitizens voting. The id thing is ing. Reporter opponents of voter id legislation like virginia delegate scott suravel say 164 alleged cases out of 9 million voters in both states is simply statistically meaningless. I was thinking maybe they also found sasquatch or maybe one of these 17 people are carrying obamas indonesian birth certificate with them when they find them because i think those are the kind of statistical probabilities were dealing with. Reporter voter fraud is a misdemeanor in maryland, but in virginia it is a felony, which is why advocates are eager to see if authority bring charges. Scott broom, wusa9. Voting officials in fairfax have not identified those 17 people referred for investigation. Today the prosecution and both defense teams finished their Closing Arguments in the corruption trial of former Virginia GovernorBob Mcdonnell and his wife maureen. Peggy fox joins us live from richmond with more on this big day in court. Reporter weve heard a lot about quid pro quo, lies and coverup. The prosecution says there was a quid pro quo, that Jonnie Williams gave the mcdonnells 177,000 in loans and gifts and in return got some official actions from the governor. The defense says no way. There was a quid, yes, there were the gifts, but there was no quo the defense says and also the defense says the mcdonnells could not have conspired because their marriage was disfunctional and they say Bob Mcdonnell did not hide anything. Bob mcdonnells attorney hank asville blamed it all on Jonnie Williams. He said the bottom line is Jonnie Williams never got anything official from Bob Mcdonnell. He focused on williams immunity deal from securities and tax fraud problems he said and that jonnie pitched the government a story about Bob Mcdonnell being corrupt better than he sold anybody anatabloc. He said the government paid a tremendous price for his testimony because without Jonnie Williams his falsehoods, there is no crime. Asville told the jury, if you have a reasonable doubt of the testimony of an immune witness, you must acquit. The day started with the prosecutions Closing Arguments. Former governor Bob Mcdonnell had his own words turned against him in a brutal Closing Argument by deputy chief prosecutor david harbach. Harbach told the story of bribery, lies and coverups walking the jury through the timeline of the alleged corruption. It begins with an april, 2011 shopping spree in new york for Maureen Mcdonnell and ends with the former first lady trying to allegedly obstruct justice after an interview with state police. Harbach said Bob Mcdonnell knew exactly what Jonnie Williams wanted and used his official capacity as governor to deliver. He was on the Jonnie Williams gravy train harbach said. He said mcdonnell lied about that Ferrari Williams let him drive and showed the jury those seven pictures of Bob Mcdonnell driving the ferrari and wearing the rolex watch william bought for him which mcdonnell said he thought might be fake. Harbach asked who poses like that in seven photos if you think the watch is fake . Harbach pulled the evidence together in a chronological timeline showing for of gift Jonnie Williams gave the mcdonnells williams received something in return, meetings, events, special treatment to help line up studies at state universities for his product anatabloc. Those studies never happened. The prosecution says that doesnt matter. Harbach ended with a bang telling the jury dont let him sit there and let him stand on the coattails of Thomas Jefferson and patrick henry. This is corruption. This is bribery. Dont let it stand. Maureen mcdonnells defense attorney also pointed the finger at Jonnie Williams and said he duped her and that he wasnt a friend but a predator. They said look, shes not a public official. She only promoted anatabloc because she believed in it. Right now michael dry, the lead prosecutor is on the stand doing the rebuttal of Closing Arguments and its going to wrap up, not sure if theyll give it to the jury tonight or wait until datuesy.
