McAuliffe spurns Trump panel's request for information on Virginia voters

Gov. Terry McAuliffe said on Thursday he has “no intention” of cooperating with a request from the Trump administration seeking detailed information about Virginia’s voters.

McAuliffe said Virginia and the 49 other states received a “lengthy request” on Thursday from Kris Kobach, vice chairman of the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity.

McAuliffe said it sought a list of all registered Virginia voters, the last four digits of their Social Security numbers, their addresses, dates of birth, political affiliations and voting histories, as well as other “vague inquiries” about Virginia’s election policies and laws.

“Virginia conducts fair, honest, and democratic elections, and there is no evidence of significant voter fraud in Virginia,” the Democratic governor said in a statement.

He's a dumbocrat obstructionist that doesn't want voter fraud mechanisms uncovered - but I repeat myself!

Since forever, liberal goofs have claimed very emphatically "there is NO voter fraud!!"
Now, as more and more FACTUAL evidence emerges that there IS voter fraud, the story line they have switched to is "there is no SIGNIFICANT voter fraud!".
Keep cheering.

typical DemocRAT protecting voter fraud so they can continually be re-elected fraudulently.

VA really needs to go back to the Red team, their bouts with Democrats have always ended in disaster without fail. McAuliffe is no exception to this general rule.

By Law he must turn over the records. They are not his to keep 'hidden'...

The only reason to try to resist an investigation is because you're guilty. Show us your innocence by welcoming an investigation mr. governor.
