Now this is truly fake news, to the (nth)°. NPR did a report, about a week after the election (when 4 California congressional districts' outcomes were still to be determined) whereby the correspondent stated that "there were 23 questionable ballots, out of more than 100,000,000 votes cast nationwide".


NPR?


How bout we just enact voter ID laws? That'll fix most of it. Whatcha say?

Racist

I went ahead and completed your response for ya. You're welcome.

Only if it fits your side of the story evidently, But hot button topics like these with all the insight provided by the posters is what keeps me coming back for more.

You? I don't know wtf your angle is or your point is.


Admitting that you are ignorant of the other argument’s side is the first step to curing that ignorance.

My point is that historically people in this country have used voter registration laws to suppress the voting voice of certain groups. This false narrative that illegals are voting en masse is step 1 of enacting legislation that suppressed the vote. See Kris Kobach in Kansas.

This concept is deeply divisive because it is rooted in race. For example, there’s nothing wrong with Voter ID laws, but enacting Voter ID laws with the intention of keeping poor, rural black people from the polls because you KNOW they don’t have Voter ID is against the Voting Rights Act of 1964.

It’s not that I’m against investigating potential voter fraud. I’m against using voter fraud hysteria to pass needless legislation that only serves as a de-facto disenfranchisement so one party can maintain an edge in a close election.

I went to a continuing legal education symposium put on at the Memphis Law School Friday called "Barriers to the Ballot Box" that was all about voter id, purging inactive voters from voting lists, gerrymandering and felon disenfranchisement. They had a panel of 3 on voter id laws and illegals voting, one guy was pro voter id one was representing the middle ground and then one lady who I think was supposed to be against voter id but her entire presentation was really only about how college id should be sufficient to vote. I'm going to see if I can find links to the materials online, it would be great reading for those interested.

i stated clearly that i'm perfectly willing to accept that voter fraud may exist and even swing elections, even though based on the anecdotes that "everyone knows" that may in fact be going too far

and here you are, as usual casting aspersions about my "motivation"

This is not surprising news, and not really unknown. We have been saying this is happening for years here.

For those who want proof. I know it’s from heritage, so you will discount it, but this is just convictions.

why do you believe blacks are incapable of obtaining a drivers license or other ID?

this isn't proof of 900,000. I am not dumb enough to believe that their isn't voter fraud in elections. I just don't believe dumb arse statements that the OP has used as an example.

Because at one time, a long time ago, it was. Now, it isn't. It's funny you have to have an ID for a lot of things but when it comes to voting, nope, we can't expect certain people to get them. Ludicrous

This guy isn't just wrong, he's so wrong as to make me wonder how fricking dumb he thinks people who will believe him are.

Spoiler: he thinks you're dumb as frick. And if you believe him, you're proving him right.

You're gullible as fuuuuuuck if you believe this.

I'm long past the point where I think you should be better - you're just that stupid.
