Democrats Intent on Sabotaging the President’s Election Integrity Commission

President Trump’s vote fraud commission launched on May 11 by executive order has generated an avalanche of hysterical outrage from the left and lawsuits by the ACLU and several leftist groups seeking to declare its very existence illegitimate. Listening to the allegations hurled against the commission and its vice chairman, Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, you would think it is plotting to repeal the Voting Rights Act or the 15th Amendment.

However, there are plenty of reliable data to justify a closer look at the problem. For instance, Just Facts, using election data and computer modeling, concluded that as many as 5.7 million non-citizens may have voted in 2008.

A 2014 study of non-citizen voting in 2012 by three professors at Old Dominion University in Virginia found lower estimates of non-citizen voters than claimed by President Trump but nonetheless concluded our elections are highly vulnerable to fraud.

A Pew Center report in 2012 found several million dead people on voter rolls, millions more registered in more than one state, and 24 million voter records with serious deficiencies.

And only this past week, it was revealed that eleven California counties have more voters on their rolls than residents over the age of eighteen. In San Diego, that figure was 138 percent.

This is not a commission on election integrity. Even the commissions' vice chairman, Kris Kobach (Secretary of State, Kansas) will not provide the information his own commission has demanded. Personal voting information does not belong in the White House - no matter who is in charge.

Elections are a state controlled activity. Whatever happened to states' rights?

Insofar as it impacts NATIONAL elections, 9:48, it IS the duty and responsibility of the federal government to ensure the validity and integrity of the voter rolls. With fraudulent activity spread across multiple states, that is the only way to accomplish it.
If people are properly registered, and only where they live and are supposed to vote, there is no negative impact on the legal voters.

Vote fraud is real, it is significant, and it is widespread. There is no reason to not examine the registrations. It will prove something, one way or the other.

Are you afraid of that?
