ACORN was a 501 c 4 that was an umbrella to 501 c 3's across the country.

It was basically a vote scheme for the Democrats, who were giving charity, then registering voters and voting for them or directing them who to vote for.

This is why a conservative journalist would target them. O'Keefe also targeted Planned Parenthoods.

ACORN was compromised when the Founder's brother was publicly caught embezzling a lot of money. Probably it was the tip of the iceberg.

At that point, Soros took over and it went into overdrive working to get Obama elected.

Having been targeted by O'Keefe so successfully, though, the 501 c 4 shut down. The 501 c 3's all just changed their names.

They are still doing it.
