According to the outlet, \u201c[t]housands of homeless voters were registered to vote at LA shelters \u2014 despite many not living there or the facilities not having any beds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While the ballot count continues in the California city, \u201cit can be revealed that one drop-in center that received $600,000 from the socialist candidate had 185 registered voters at the address but offers no accommodations.\u201d If this seems suspicious to you, you aren\u2019t alone. US Attorney Bill Essayli says he will look into the matter, according to\u00a0<em>The Post<\/em>, and will \u201cfollow the evidence\u201d to see if any laws were broken.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA review of records shows 7,600 voters tied to homeless shelters and service providers,\u201d the outlet reported. \u201cAmong them was St. Joseph Center in Venice, a homeless services drop-in center with 185 registered voters tied to its address. The organization received a $600,000 taxpayer-funded grant awarded by Raman while she chaired the City Council\u2019s Housing and Homelessness Committee.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Martin Rowe, a homeless man, reveals he \u201cwas registered to vote during an outreach effort outside a Ralphs grocery store.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey asked you all the questions. They gave you a paper.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Midnight Mission on Skid Row reportedly boasts the highest concentration of homeless voters with 1,160. A review of the records, however, shows they only have \u201cbeds for 84 men and 36 women,\u201d making it impossible for them to house that many people at one time.<\/p>\n<p>More from\u00a0<em>The Post<\/em>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>One homeless man on Skid Row, Norman, said he\u2019s witnessed voter registration efforts in the area for years and claims he had previously been paid to help sign up voters \u2014 and that cigarettes were offered to some people during the drives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a big push to get a certain area of town registered to voting,\u201d Norman, who declined to give a last name, citing a pending court case, told The Post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are just doing it because we\u2019re here. You see people sitting around. It\u2019s just a few lines to sign and you\u2019re a registered voter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Post could not independently verify who provided them or whether the activity was connected to any campaign, political organization or voter registration group \u2014 but the\u00a0details echo a similar case previously reported by our newspaper. In that case, a Marina Del Rey woman agreed to plead guilty to bombshell charges that she paid\u00a0homeless people on Skid Row\u00a0to register to vote in a 20-year scheme tied to illegal petition signature collection.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Time will tell if this revelation will change the outcome of the LA mayoral race, or if it is just politics as usual for a state like California.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/americanwirenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/rf-pexels-homeless-tents-1200x630.jpg\" title=\"LA voter rolls include shelters with no beds\u2014and plenty of questions\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Americans begin to raise a fuss over what critics deem a suspicious ballot count in Los Angeles, a new report could break things wide open.
