How this is ever going to rise to Trump's claim of 3 million fraudulent votes in 2016 is a complete mystery. Maybe that's what you mean by interesting.
Actually Trump later upped that number to 5 million.

What happened to that guy, Gregg Phillips, who said he had proof? I wonder why he has faded away. Trump said that he was very interested in looking at Gregg's evidence. But he did not name him as a commission member.

What gives?

No sense in trying to argue with knuckleheads over this. The Left KNOWS this happens and they run interference for it.

The Left knows that this happens.


Just not in SIGNIFICANT numbers. Not 3 million. Not 5 million.


And the Pew Center study that Donald Trump quoted as a source did NOT conclude what Donald Trump said it concluded.

In Virginia you can register to vote at the DMV. It's possible this form was given to people applying for a new or renewed drivers' license. Hence the honest answer of "Non-citizen". No intent to deceive and no fraud.

ICE actually has a list of names and addresses, now. No need for police co-operation. Just go get these people and throw them out. I think it's important to make an example of them. If the State or County screwed around with their voter registration, let them sue the registering people. That would actually be a bigger scandal especially if an unnamed political party is doing the voting for them unbeknownst to them.

Because all non-citizens are illegal in your eyes?

Can we forget the partisan bickering and rhetoric and just cut to the bottom line?
