Why isn't this front page news? Oh yeah because it would prove that Trump was right that illegal aliens are voting.

Just one correction, many believe that the reduction in food stamp use is due to illegal aliens being afraid that by picking up their food stamps, they will reap their "just rewards", arrested, detained and deported. My hope is that they will load up and head "home" when the collecting of the freebies becomes an even more serious threat!

Stories like this also serve as a warning to those using stolen IDs, I hope it gets more widespread coverage.

^^^^This is true especially now when Trump is getting really tough on illegals. When Obama was in office, illegals figured that no one was going to stop them from breaking our laws.

Illegal KNEW FOR CERTAIN that ICE wasn't being allowed to do their jobs as Obama had tied their hands. I suppose this also gave those govt workers a sense of well-being feeling they wouldn't get their tails caught in the fan either.

Government workers? That is really is BAD!

Unless I missed it, the article didn't say how many illegals got fake IDs over the years for voting -- are we talking hundreds, thousands??
I hope there's more investigation on this.

Well, considering the fact that the article specifically mentioned the sale of Puerto Rican birth certificates in Massachusetts, and Puerto Rico had to void all the birth certificates they had ever issued just a few years ago because they were being used as fake documentation for illegal aliens in the US, I'd say it's a LOT more widespread than anyone can even imagine...

Quote:
"On July 1, [2010] all Puerto Rican birth certificates will become invalid. U.S. officials say a big percentage of fraudulent applications for U.S. passports or social benefits use Puerto Rican birth certificates.

So the Puerto Rican government is requiring everyone born on the island to apply for new ones."

WRONG.

Carris said federal authorities have notified the secretary of state’s office about the illegal voter identities that were obtained. State authorities said they have no evidence that anyone voted illegally.
