Multiple nationwide studies have uncovered only a handful of incidents of non-citizens voting. Based on state prosecution records, votes by non-citizens account for between 0.0003 percent and 0.001 percent of all votes cast. Election Officials agree that there is no serious problem of non-citizen voting in our elections.
Hmm, you know, when we talk about Voter-ID and a Democrat brings up an anomaly like a voter with no ID because they came from a country that didn't provide birth certificates, the left told us that every single vote is precious; every single vote should count. But for some reason, when it comes to voter fraud "Oh don't worry, it's not enough to change anything."
The only real way of knowing who or how many vote fraudulently is when they get caught.
The reality today is votes are precious, not a vote. In the first presidential election there 43,000 votes. In 2016, there were 130 million votes. Just recently, LA county said 118,000 voters were accidentally left all voter rosters, about 3 times the total number of votes in our first presidential election. It is not unusually that thousands of ballots out of millions in a state will be misplaced or tabulated incorrectly. Sometimes they are found and sometimes not. As long as the ballots that are disqualified or mis-tabulated will not make a difference in the outcome, they are largely ignored.
In every presidential election there are thousands of votes that are not counted and many times that number that are not allowed to vote because of various purging rules of voting rosters.
So we are supposed be alarmed over fraudulently voting when it's discovered that 10 people voted fraudulently over a 6 year period in national elections, one women is sent to jail, 733 people could have voted twice because they were on the rolls for more one state and at the same time tens of thousands of valid voters are purged from the rolls and over hundred thousand legal register voters are simple lost.
The whole controversy about more validation of the votes and voter ids is based on the unproven claim that large number of non-citizens are voting in national elections. Also the presumption that adding voter ids will reduce the number of democratic votes is unproven. In other words, it's much ado about nothing.
According to Democrats Voter-ID is racist and does affect Democrat voters only.
There are F-ups in every election. To count the amount of votes cast is a daunting task. It takes electronics to assist to get the results as quickly as we get them. But because of that, mistakes are made. Those mistakes only come up when a Democrat loses.
The only time ballots that are misplaced are ignored is when it wouldn't make a difference in the outcome. If a congressional candidate wins by 15,000 votes, and 15,000 votes are found afterwards, it won't make a difference because it's likely not every one of those votes likely didn't go to that candidate. However, if they found 15,000 votes and a candidate lost by let's say 2,000, you can bet anything they will be counted and counted under a microscope.
That idea seems pretty racist to me. IMHO, voter ids do reduce turnout but they are just about as likely to effect republican votes as democrat vote. However, the issues at stake and the candidates are a far bigger determinate than having to remember to carry your id to the poll.
