Voter Fraud

Where's your proof? It's true. There was never any proof that Al Capone was responsible for murders, extortion, robberies. Where's the proof.

"Opponents of measures to improve ballot integrity like to deny that voter fraud exists. “Voter fraud is very rare, [and] voter impersonation is nearly non-existent,” asserts a statement by NYU law school’s Brennan Center entitled “The Myth of Voter Fraud.” That claim, so common on the left, is based on an assumption that election officials are on the lookout for fraud and mistakes. But incidents in states from Virginia to Pennsylvania to New York show that too many election officials are ignoring or even covering up the systemic problems brought to their attention. One way not to find something is simply not to look."

There has never been any proof that Sen. Hillary Clinton getting bags of money from the family of Marc Rich at the same time that President Clinton was giving Marc Rich and unprecendented presidential pardon was in any way corrupt. Nope, no proof. And there is no proof that Donald Trump's Trump University scam was, well, a scam. And there's no proof that Sen. Clinton is anything but a sincere, American dedicated to the welfare of women and children. Of course, the welfare of women who were attacked by Hillary's husband and children who were raped by a man Sen. Clinton was defending seem not to count but there is no proof.

There is no proof, for the leftists, that the president who cheered rioters with "Stay the course" is in anyway a racist hater of America. Nope, no proof for the leftists.

So, when a bum comes in and votes as a dead man, showing no ID, and walks out we can learn that a dead man voted. There is plenty of proof of that. But, proof of who the bum was who was paid to come an vote is nonexistent. That's why the liberals are suing states to get rid of voter ID laws. That's why leftists have Motor Voter laws for foreign nationals can be registered to vote. That's why the current administration refuses to assist states in weeding foreign nationals of the rolls of registered voters.

If they don't let you look it's rather disingenuous to then whine, "There is no proof." Leftists, like the Democrat Party, desperately need fraud.

Registering to vote at multiple addresses isn't illegal. But you are correct, it is very easy to track duplicate registrations.

That's a personal story. How do you know that the duplicated information wasn't there because some data-entry clerk made a mistake? How do you know that your name wasn't checked off because the voting clerk put a check in the wrong box? How do you know that it wasn't a person who DOES have your same name (mine, btw, is unique in all the world as far as I've been able to find), and that the check or the mouseclick or whatever simply went to the wrong data point?

You don't.

What I'm pointing out here is that your story does NOT indicate that there was voter fraud. Sure, there might have been...but there's other possibilities that are each at least as likely.

What's more, there's one factor that the voter-fraud-is-rampant crowd never seem to get: it would be virtually impossible for voter fraud to happen on as large a scale as y'all seem to think. Why? One person isn't going to go vote multiple times at the same polling place - it would be too easy to get caught. That means that in order for enough fraudulent votes to be cast to really make a major difference, people would have be shuttling from polling place to polling place to polling place...and any such operation that takes place on a large scale takes significant ORGANIZATION...which is very, very hard to keep secret. That, btw, is why "conspiracy theories" are so despised, because CT's require that so many people are keeping their mouths shut. Ben Franklin once said, "Three men can keep a secret, if two of them are dead." How much more would his maxim apply when there's thousands - or tens of thousands - of fraudulent voters involved?

"Rampant voter fraud" is a conspiracy made up of whole cloth. The "Voter ID" laws aren't there to "true the vote" - they never were. Those "Voter ID" laws are there for the same reason that we had poll taxes and literacy tests...to keep from voting those whom one doesn't want to vote.
