The American people have come to believe that there are serious problems with our electoral system. One study from last year showed that Americans have little faith in the integrity of their elections and postulated that this partly explains low voter turnout. A Rasmussen poll from 2016 reported that only 41% of those polled believe "American elections are fair to voters." A Washington Post-ABC News poll from 2016 found that 46% of those polled believed that voter fraud happens either "somewhat" or "very" often.

There are over 2,800 counties in states covered by the NVRA. Of these, 415, or about 15% of all covered counties, did not report sending any confirmation notices during the two-year period from 2014 to 2016.
Our study showed that, in 462 U.S. counties, the number of voter registrations exceeded the number of citizens over the age of 18 who resided in those counties. In other words, those counties' registration rates exceeded 100% of the population eligible to register. These 462 counties, moreover, constitute about 17% of all U.S. counties covered by the NVRA where we have enough data to make these calculations.
When Judicial Watch conducted a similar registration analysis in 2015, we found that 312 counties covered by the NVRA had more registered voters than voting-age citizen population, which was about 11% of all counties where we had the data necessary to make this comparison.
The Department during the last administration appears to have completely abandoned all efforts to enforce the list maintenance provisions of Section 8 of the NVRA. Even worse, the Department engaged in litigation specifically intended to limit the ability of states to remove ineligible registrations from the rolls.
We also know that voter fraud is hard to detect and prove, especially where the law requires a showing of specific intent. We know that many states do not even bother to track voter fraud. We also know that this is probably to be expected, given that voter fraud often is lightly penalized. In preparing my statement, I happened to research some of the voter fraud laws in neighboring Vermont. Its election law provides that the penalty for casting more than one ballot is a maximum fine of $1,000 for a primary or general election, $100 for a local election, and no incarceration in either case. At the same time, Vermont law provides that the penalty for selling maple syrup without a license is a maximum fine of $5,000 and up to a year in prison.
"Ninety-four percent of Washington, D.C., voted for Hillary Clinton. When that population gets up in the morning and goes to work and staffs the departments and agencies of the government, they're generally anti-President Trump.
"One hundred twenty-five national security leaks in the first 126 days of the administration, so that's practically one a day. That is seven times the number of national security leaks under the Bush administration or the Obama administration taken as an average in the first six months – not twice, not three times, seven times the number of leaks. According to Congress, of those initial leaks, at least 60 of them were of serious national security matters.
"It's important to remember that it was Donald Trump himself who provoked the Deep State to expose itself. We can see this in what we're learning now about the outrageous efforts by the CIA, the FBI, the NSA to insert themselves into the presidential campaign, into the political process in order to destroy his candidacy and presidency.
"There has sadly been no groundswell of opinion from the voters about the fact that our basic functions of transparency are so broken. I believe the average American, though, understands quite clearly that it's ironic and it's shameful that the government can have their phone logs within a matter of days but I, as a reporter, cannot get the bureaucrats' phone logs for a matter of months.
My JW attorney colleague James Peterson confirmed that the Deep State is still blocking Judicial Watch's access to information.
"Literally on day one and ever since it has continued. The fight has continued. If anything, it's just as difficult, it's just as intense, the opposition to anything we're trying to do. The State Department, the Justice Department still fight tooth and nail at each stage to prevent anything coming out, whether it's Hillary e-mail related or things that could be easily released at the discretion of the government at any moment. It doesn't require any significant action, but the same people are still there – not just at each of the agencies that are in control but also at the Justice Department in the litigation. It's the same people that are still in control."

I am from Illinois and I know voter fraud exists especially in Cook County. I also know that Chicago controls Illinois and the illegal voting. Chicago where the dead vote often. This is so typical here that grandpa voted democrat song. There were even reports that there were buses going into Wisconsin and the voters all had on their Bear jackets on and voted for Obama at the time and I'm sure that they tried it for Hillary as well.

I really believe that that's the only way Obama won his second term was by voter fraud. And some of these senators that barely win their states year after year, I believe are won by voter fraud also...just sayin....

In the democrat counties and cities, there were more votes counted than registered voters. Basically, the democrats are the most dishonest, and most dangerous to civilized society. They have made the United States so filthy, and dishonest just so they could keep the power by fraud forever. The longer they stay, the more criminals activities they master. They keep and defend illegal aliens because there are millions of these illegals who vote for them illegally.

I wonder what they say about Republican gerrymandering. Lining up the votes to support their deranged view of the universe.
