Wonderful, Trump apparently gets his news from conspiracy websites, the next four years should be really fun.
Tell you what, I'll go into California. I'll pull everyone's drivers licenses and cross check their citizenship. Then I'll verify that against the voter rolls. If I don't get 2 million illegals registered to and that have voted you win. If I win I get to bring in enough buses to send everyone of them back to
Mexico or where ever the hell they came from.

They are absolutely welcome to come back if they follow the immigration process.

At this point, I'll just take Trump's word for whatever he alleges until the WikiLeaks comes out to once again prove he was right all along.


Hey OP, CNN?


Seriously?

Seriously?
Since Trump is claiming there was massive voter fraud, shouldn't you be in support of any recounts to catch this voter fraud?

So you don't care about voter fraud? So what is it, is massive voter fraud a real concern for you or not?

He just can't stand not winning everything.

He's president.

That thin skin again and the childish temperament are getting really boring

I don't know about your state but my state has gone to great lengths to combat fraudulent ID's and you can teach a five year old kid how to spot one in about 10 seconds. See the picture below, the two black and white keystones will shift colors depending on the angle. I have yet to see fake ID's that duplicate this.

In addition to that let's move voting into the 21 century. With the implementation of voter ID you can scrap the archaic registration sytem and have card readers and screens for the poll workers where your picture magically appears on their screen. That eliminates all possibility of someone using a fraudulent ID obtained from third party and would speed up the process of voting considerably.

Matter of fact here in PA one thing they do to combat fraudulent ID's is "fingerprint" your face using facial recognition technology. It's hard but not impossible to obtain a fraudulent ID but you are not going to get another one and you just precluded yourself from getting legitimate one. You wouldn't even need a poll worker but instead a card reader and camera in the voting booth.

Isn't technology grand? Stop thinking last century and start thinking this century. Photo ID opens up many possibilities.

That's cool for you and your state, that still doesn't change the fact that we will continue to do mail in ballots as a way to vote in Oregon because it increases voter participation, and we have had no major issue with fraud, and the few cases of fraud that come up all get fully investigated.

Trump Is Right


"Specifically, the authors say that illegals may have cast as many as 2.8 million votes in 2008 and 2010. That's a lot of votes. And when you consider the population of illegal inhabitants has only grown since then, it's not unreasonable to suppose that their vote has, too.
Critics note that a Harvard team in 2015 had responded to the study, calling it "biased." But that report included this gem: "Further, the likely percent of noncitizen voters in recent U.S. elections is 0." "


Seriously Harvard team?


California, Illinois and New York have no voter ID laws on the books. Hello! To say that non citizens don't vote is absurd.

11 out of the 12 states that allow illegals to posses a drivers license voted democrat this election.

7 states have strict voter ID laws. 25 states have non strict ID laws. 18 states have no such laws.

There is an estimated 10 million illegals over the age of 18 in the US.

So yes it's possible and quite honestly very likely.
