Investigating voter fraud.
"The commission will be chaired by Vice President Mike Pence, and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach will serve as vice chair, the White House announced during Thursday’s press briefing.
"It will “study the registration and voting processes used in Federal elections” as well as “fraudulent voter registrations and fraudulent voting,” the order says.
"Lawmakers from both parties will be on the commission, which will be tasked with studying practices and policies “that undermine the American people’s confidence in the integrity of the voting processes used in Federal elections,” according to the text of the executive order.
"The commission will be charged with reviewing Trump’s allegations that millions of people voted illegally in the 2016 election."
You would think that everybody could get behind this. Of course democrats maintain there's no such thing as voter fraud..or at least they did, until they failed to steal this last presidential election.
But if you thought that, you would think wrong. The democrats don't want investigations into voter fraud, for reasons that have been obvious for decades, but even more obvious since Obama's election machine, Acorn, went down with a flurry of voter fraud convictions...
"The critics are already calling the commission a “sham” before it even gets started, according to the Washington Post:
"Michael Waldman, president of the Brennan Center for Justice, called the commission “a sham and distraction,” alleging that Trump was trying “to pivot” from the firestorm that followed his firing of Comey while the FBI chief was leading an investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
“He fired the person investigating a real threat to election integrity and set up a probe of an imaginary threat,” Waldman said.
"League of Women Voters President Chris Carson said, “The real purpose of this effort is to justify President Trump’s false claims of widespread voter fraud in the 2016 elections.” She said the commission was being filled with “political ideologues with dangerous agendas.”
"In a statement before Trump signed his order, New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman (D) said that “no matter how many times President Trump claims otherwise, voter fraud is an imaginary problem.” Schneiderman said his office found no substantiated claims of voter fraud in New York last year."
In other words, the people who are committing the fraud don't want the fraud investigated.
Got it.
