Perhaps this will help us better understand why Pelosi, Schumer and many Democrats are reluctant to build a Wall.

I suspect that its a similar situation in other deep blue states.

Might also be why the 'Russia! Russia! Russia!' narrative was pushed so hard, pointing to foreign influence on the election results, diverting attention from these influences on election results.

Has anyone ever said that there is no fraudulent voting in the United States or are you just making that up? I feel like you are just fabricating that in an attempt to use blatant falsehoods in an attempt to make a political point. Also the OP assertion is based on the lie, refuted even by his own source, that this is proof of illegals voting running rampant in the US. There is nothing true in any of this, including your post. When your entire position is based falsehoods and can only be supported with lies and deception perhaps it is time to reevaluate your position.

So, you've never seen the arguments in here scoffing, and mocking the very thought of illegals voting? Interesting.

Or, was your entire, thin lipped posting of word salad just vomited out there to call me a liar?

Didnt later articles say 58000 of those names were illegal for sure.

I didn't run across any when I searched.

And for that matter, the Texas SecState sent that only 2 days ago on the 25th, a Friday, I doubt the local government officials worked a weekend to check all the names.

Wait, wasn't their argument before this that there is NO fraudulent voting, and you can't prove it? Now, it changed to no big deal.

It was never that. It was “in-person voter impersonation is incredibly rare, and does not justify voter ID laws because those laws cause more problems than they solve.”

Will you remember this next time? Does it even register in your brain that Texas has voter ID laws in place and it doesn’t stop this type of issue?

No, we scoffed at the idea of it being a crisis.

Voting when you are a registered voter is not fraudulent voting.

It is if you vote in an election you are not eligible to vote in.
 
This is typical GOP fare when they need to purge the voter rolls.

Yes, how did the special commission on voter fraud miss this? Used to work a lot with non-citizen immigrants. The last thing they would want to do is risk their status by registering and voting. But the myth persists cause it comforts some of us.

Not surprising that there would be a claim that 58,000 voted in Texas elections, as if they did it all at once in the last election. Fact is that the 58,000 number that DID vote is for a period of 22 years, dating back to 1996. Yes, there is a problem with non-citizens registering to vote, but is not to the extent that some people claim it is.

What makes this hilarious is that this information comes from Secretary of State Ken Paxton's office. Paxton is about to be a convicted felon. He was charged with 2 Federal felonies, as well as a State felony. The 2 Federal felonies have been dismissed, but the State felony is going to court this year, and Paxton will likely be convicted for working as an unregistered securities agent, a third degree felony in the State of Texas.

Looks like the case will likely fizzle out. https://www.texasobserver.org/with-texas-court-ruling-ken-paxtons-felony-case-may-fizzle/

If we use CNN, NYT, Washington Post then the Heritage Foundation is fair game also. By the way has the NYT ever apologized to the Covington High School kids yet?
 
Why am I not surprised. "Conservatives lie" is pretty much an evergreen statement around here.
 
And in Pennsylvania, it looks like 6100 illegals may have voted and possibly 100,000 may be registered to vote but the state is stonewalling freedom of information requests to get the totals(go figure).


Of the about 8,700 ineligible voters pending confirmation, about 2,500 are inactive -- meaning they haven't voted in at least two general elections. The rest -- about 6,100 in total -- are considered active registrants.


......


When they filed the lawsuit in February, the group cited Mr. Schmidt’s estimate that there were more than 100,000 noncitizen immigrants registered to vote, which the state department said wasn’t an accurate figure.

........


State Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, chairman of the House State Government Committee, has also sought records under the state’s Right-to-Know Law, and in a Facebook post last week, blasted the state department for "dragging their feet at every turn to keep records regarding foreign nationals illegally registering to vote in Pennsylvania hidden from the public."

Take note of the people who automatically agreed with dobieg, especially the ones that spewed after "liking" his post. This is the **** that drives demands for a useless wall.

They really may not understand that spending resources on the wall rather than elsewhere will be a (far) less efficient approach.

Someone becoming a citizen and then voting is not voter fraud, do you agree?

Of course. But then they wouldn't be non-citizens, do you agree?

Yeah we understand why liberals like you don't want a wall. A wall is permanent while your short term solutions will be defunded whenever your side needs more voters.
