Donald Trump cites voter ID decisions in concerns about ‘rigged’ election

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is providing more details about his fear of a “rigged” November election, pointing to recent decisions on voter identification laws and saying people might end up voting 10 times.

“I’m looking at all of these decisions coming down from the standpoint of identification, voter ID, and I’m saying what do you mean? You don’t have to have voter ID to now go in and vote?” Mr. Trump said on Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor” Tuesday.

“And it’s a little bit scary, and I’ve heard a lot of bad things, I must say,” he said. “Four years ago, I was hearing a lot of bad things having to do with the Romney campaign where when the vote came out, there were some districts that were really shockingly different from what they were anticipated to be.

“And I’ve been seeing it and I’ve been hearing it a lot,” Mr. Trump said. “But the whole thing with voter ID, identification. … I mean, people are going to walk in — they’re going to vote 10 times, maybe — who knows?”

Last week, a federal appeals court struck down a voter ID law in North Carolina, finding a series of provisions lawmakers approved several years ago were “enacted with racially discriminatory intent.”

Earlier this week, a federal judge also ruled against a voter ID law in North Dakota. In recent years, courts have also ruled against voter ID laws in states like Wisconsin and Texas.

It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.

What is the big deal about having and showing your ID. Right now you have to show a valid ID to do everything except to go to the bathroom. To me this shows the Liberal DemocRATs institute and push for fraud in our voting process. No disrespect but Stevie Wonder and Ronnie Milsap can see these facts clear as day without glasses.
