Serious Question about Illegal voting investigation
Posted on 1/25/17 at 7:03 am

So the media seems to be all up in arms about Trump wanting to investigate illegal immigrant participation in the election.
From a neutral point-of-view, I honestly can't figure out the big deal.
Does the media honestly believe that not a single illegal voted in the election?
If not, why should the American people not want an inquiry to see just how problematic this issue is?
I think it's just another sign of how out of touch the media is with mainstream America.

He's looking to finger the 3 million he lost by you fricking idiot. He doesn't care about democracy and it's well being.
God, what a Board of simpletons.

We won't find 3M illegals that voted.
We will find massive abuse and "benign" neglect issues if we investigate our voting system. If major changes are made, the fraud has to start all over with new rules. And liberals don't want that.

A sentence using scared and shitless comes to mind when thinking of you regarding Trump.

The MSM knows what goes on with the dims. They don't want the truth to come out.
MSM is complicit.

It's a pretext to purge voter rolls of people Republicans don't believe will vote for them.

EXACTUMUNDO!!
As I stated in another thread - I hope congress passes a "Establish Faith in Federal Elections" act which rigidizes voter registration and ID requirements for federal primaries and elections. Hopefully states will adopt for state primaries/elections too.
It is about time to wipe out the potential for massive fraud inherent in the current system.

Might not find 3 million illegals but find out somehow a bunch of people rose from the grave to vote for their savior Hillary Clinton.

Here's how our socialist friends to the north do it (and how, if the US did the same, the US would become a fascist state?):
Canadian Voter Laws with ID Requirements
Canadian Federal Voting Requirments, including ID
Who is eligible to vote in the federal election and referendums?
You may vote in [a] federal election if you:
are a Canadian citizen
will be 18 or older on election day
are registered to vote
The Canada Elections Act includes detailed information on who is eligible to vote.
Policy on Voter Identification:
You must prove your identity and address to register and vote in a federal election. Here are your ID options when you are voting in person – at an Elections Canada office, at advance polls or on election day:
There are three options to prove your identity and address:
1) Show one of these pieces of ID
your driver's licence
your provincial or territorial ID card
any other government card with your photo, name and current address
You can use ID with your mailing address if that address appears in your voter registration file. If you're not sure what address we have on file, check your voter registration.
OR
2) Show two pieces of ID
At least one must have your current address:
health card
Canadian passport
birth certificate
certificate of Canadian citizenship
citizenship card
social insurance number card
Indian status card
band membership card
Métis card
card issued by an Inuit local authority
Canadian Forces identity card
Veterans Affairs health card
old age security card
hospital card
medical clinic card
label on a prescription container
identity bracelet issued by a hospital or long-term care facility
blood donor card
CNIB card
credit card
debit card
employee card
student identity card
public transportation card
library card
liquor identity card
parolee card
firearms licence
licence or card issued for fishing, trapping or hunting
utility bill (e.g. electricity; water; telecommunications services including telephone, cable or satellite)
bank statement
credit union statement
credit card statement
personal cheque
government statement of benefits
government cheque or cheque stub
pension plan statement
residential lease or sub-lease
mortgage contract or statement
income tax assessment
property tax assessment or evaluation
vehicle ownership
insurance certificate, policy or statement
correspondence issued by a school, college or university
letter from a public curator, public guardian or public trustee
targeted revision form from Elections Canada to residents of long-term care facilities
letter of confirmation of residence from a First Nations band or reserve or an Inuit local authority
letter of confirmation of residence, letter of stay, admission form or statement of benefits from one of the following designated establishments:
student residence
seniors' residence
long-term care facility
shelter
soup kitchen
We accept e-statements and e-invoices. Print them or show them on a mobile device.
OR
3) If your ID does not have your current address, take an oath:
Show two pieces of ID with your name and have someone who knows you attest to your address. This person must show proof of identity and address, be registered in the same polling division, and attest for only one person.
Important information about ID:
Your voter information card is not a piece of ID.
We accept pieces of ID in their original format. If your document was issued electronically, like an e-statement or an e-invoice, bring a printout or show it on a mobile device.
We accept different pieces of ID from the same source if the documents serve different purposes. For example, we accept an invoice and a transcript from the same school.
Your name and address must be printed on the ID. They can't be added by hand, unless they are added by the issuer of the document, like a residence administrator or a guardian.
We accept expired ID, as long as it has your name and current address.
The pieces of ID listed above are authorized by the Chief Electoral Officer. No other pieces will be accepted.
The pieces of ID required for a federal election are not the same as for provincial, territorial or municipal elections.

No - it is a goal to purge voter rolls and rigidly monitor the re-registration process in order to ensure than only American citizens can register to vote and to ensure that the person showing up to vote is the person he claims to be.
What part of that is objectional to you>???

quote:since we know the media is biased; They said nothing when Obama encouraged illegals to vote, so it makes sense they would chastise Trump for investigating it.
So the media seems to be all up in arms about Trump wanting to investigate illegal immigrant participation in the election.

That is a Federal Statute. I am just fine with the federal government telling the states how they must register voters and how they maintain the voter rolls. I say we adapt the Canadian idea IMMEDIATELY.....

The part where you mistakenly believe it will be equally administered.
The part where you believe it's necessary.
The part where you conflate voter ID laws with voter registration fraud.
Other parts, but those are the first 3 that come to mind.

They way Trump has been hitting on all cylinders, I wouldn't rule out any statement from him at the moment...
