You made the argument - support it.

This needs to happen a hell of a lot more on this board, and in general.

The whole voter fraud thing from the right is simply embarrassing. They have basically evidence of nothing,

Sigh. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Of course, "absence of evidence" doesn't even describe the situation.

This study, which is the best of any on the subject to date, has very troubling implications, although you can expect the extrapolation to the whole voting population to be crude. It could be high, or low. But its order of magnitude certainly puts it into potentially "swinging elections".

We find that some non-citizens participate in U.S. elections, and that this participation has been large enough to change meaningful election outcomes including Electoral College votes, and Congressional elections. Non-citizen votes likely gave Senate Democrats the pivotal 60th vote needed to overcome filibusters in order to pass health care reform and other Obama administration priorities in the 111th Congress.

This should scare more just "old white people", if you claim to have a problem with disenfranchisement.
