It's interesting that Democrats are worried about E******n Security since 2016 as if before 2016 we didn't have any problems,really????? This is such a BS!!!!!

IIRC, democrats are the one's screaming "it's r****t" to purge v**er rolls; purge meaning to remove those who - for some reason - are no longer eligible to v**e.

We we’re not aware of enormous foreign interference in our e******ns until 2016. The Mueller report produced loads of evidence of Russian interference and misinformation targeting our e******n and more importantly Americans faith in the process. Every legislator should support building a firewall to keep foreign interests from medaling in our e******ns and campaigns.

The majority of those purged from the rolls are removed not for a lack of eligibility but simply because they did not v**e in a couple of local e******ns. These purges are targeted to areas that will benefit the party currently in charge of e******ns and are designed not to prevent fraud which is practically non existent, (remember Trumps commission on v***r f***d that was quietly disbanded when they found none) the purges are designed to suppress v**ers for political gain.

"The majority of those purged from the rolls are removed not for a lack of eligibility but simply because they did not v**e in a couple of local e******ns."
So, in other words, they failed to meet the eligibility requirements.

"These purges are targeted to areas that will benefit the party currently in charge of e******ns"
So it is done by both parties - what is "r****t" about that?

"fraud which is practically non existent"
You need to learn the definition of v***r f***d.....v***r f***d (also known as e******n f***d):

Impersonation fraud at the polls:V****g in the name of other legitimate v**ers and v**ers who have died, moved away, or lost their right to v**e because they are felons, but remain registered.

False registrations: V****g under fraudulent v***r r**********ns that either use a phony name and a real or f**e address or claim residence in a particular jurisdiction where the registered v**er does not actually live and is not entitled to v**e.

Duplicate v****g: Registering in multiple locations and v****g in the same e******n in more than one jurisdiction or state.

Fraudulent use of absentee b****ts: Requesting absentee b****ts and v****g without the knowledge of the actual v**er; or obtaining the absentee b****t from a v**er and either filling it in directly and forging the v**er’s signature or illegally telling the v**er who to v**e for.

Buying v**es: Paying v**ers to cast either an in-person or absentee b****t for a particular candidate.

Illegal “assistance” at the polls: Forcing or intimidating v**ers—particularly the elderly, disabled, illiterate, and those for whom English is a second language—to v**e for particular candidates while supposedly providing them with “assistance.”

Ineligible v****g: Illegal registration and v****g by individuals who are not U.S. citizens, are convicted felons, or are otherwise not eligible to v**e.

Altering the v**e count: Changing the actual v**e count either in a precinct or at the central location where v**es are counted.

B****t petition fraud: Forging the signatures of registered v**ers on the b****t petitions that must be filed with e******n officials in some states for a candidate or issue to be listed on the official b****t.

There is no evidence of such a massive e******n i**********e campaign prior to the 2015/16 cycle.

Depends on your definition of "massive". But v***r f***d/e******n f***d has been around quite a while.


"It was Mayor Anton Cermak, the first in an unbroken stream of Democratic mayors since 1931, who created what would became known as the infamous “Democratic Machine,” said Bob Crawford, a now-retired journalist who covered city politics for decades for WBBM-AM and was considered the dean of the City Hall press corps. The Machine ensured v**ers picked the right candidates, and the people who worked in it weren’t shy about using money, bribes or f**e identities to get v**es for Democrats.

Through decades of organization, the Machine would become a “monolithic political organization that crisscrossed racial and ethnic boundaries in the city,” Crawford said. The Machine’s operators took advantage of cynicism among v**ers, who figured they at least had clean water and other necessities thanks to the Machine-backed candidates, leading to systemic fraud, Crawford said.

And the people involved in the Machine didn’t just c***t to win — they c***ted so they could get major victories that could give their candidates a “mandate” and discourage potential opponents from rival parties from running for office.

Mayor Anton Cermak helped create the Democratic machine, but experts said it was Mayor Richard J. Daley who mastered how to use it. The Machine operated for decades, but it was Mayor Richard J. Daley (who held office from 1955 to 1976) who mastered it, Crawford said.

“It was Cermak who got the credit for actually creating what came to be known as the Democratic Machine,” Crawford said. “Daley got the credit for turning it into an art form.”

In fact, Robert F. Kennedy once said Daley was “the whole ballgame” — meaning if candidates had Daley and his Machine on their side, they could carry all of Illinois, Crawford said."

could it be this

We have had problems, but why is it not a concern to the right? Why does McConnell block e******n integrity laws that provide f**r e******ns and better equipment? And why have states recently been upgrading systems with equipment that has the same basic abilities to be adulterated?

We have had e******n problems such as v****g machines and no hard b****ts or recount capability for several e******ns and equipment and systems and procedures have been upgraded in all but about 14 states. The problems are real, the equipment is far too old and unreliable, and there are rules that are completely i***tic and senseless unless the intent is to be able to facilitate incorrect counts.

There is no reason a handful of states should have ridiculous rules no other states have because they use their control of the e******n process to allow for fraud.

American Vet

I believe the v****g is an individual state issue - not a federal one.

Yes, they are, your party was giving out Driver Licenses to i******s so they could v**e illegally. That's because your party can't win an honest e******n. I******s lack eligibility, constitutionally. If someone doesn't v**e in two consecutive e******ns their not responsible citizens and should be purged. Try again.

The Al Franken e******n in MN. More than a thousand cases of fraud were alleged. 113 were prosecuted, almost all Democrats. Franken won by barely 300 v**es in a statewide e******n. One thousand alleged fraud cases, yet only 113 were prosecuted in a state where the e******n commission was controlled completely by Democrats at the time.

We are just now becoming aware of the foreign, and domestic, “interference” in every aspect of our lives! Everyone, in every country and in every group, with any agenda are always interfering with all human activity! We have all become aphids in service to somebody’s “interests”. If we had the courage to allow real encryption we could return to a semblance of security. It would also limit harm from regional powers with fewer resources than the US. Never happen, of course......we dearly love our boogeymen and the fear and hatred they eng****r. As for general e******ns, thank God for the founders wisdom and having 50 e******ns, not just one!!

Are they going to the v****g booths to keep undesirables out? My team and I are.

The Mueller report was BS and so was he. Learn to spell meddling. A firewall will do s**t. I have a few IT friends who could but won't hack in. Firewalls just make them laugh it's like Dungeons and D**gons to them. I was fully aware of the EU helping Hillary, they failed, didn't they?
