It just made my morning to see that not only is the AP reporting this correctly, but the headline explicitly states the insane rarity of voter fraud. (Non-citizen or otherwise.) You have a better chance of getting a clear picture of Bigfoot than you do of having a voter fraud incident in your jurisdiction.

    Just because you don’t see it. doesn’t mean it’s not there. It would be entirely possible that there is no enforcement… and thus no records of those events happening.

    My brother in Christ, I once pored over Kris Kobach’s office records when he was Kansas’s attorney general, and over the course of fifteen years he found less than ten cases of it affecting even fewer votes. That’s a dude who built his entire career on the specter of voter fraud and even he couldn’t prove its existence.

    Those records may still be on the ACLU’s website for public consumption if you want to do the same.

    Voter fraud doesn’t exist, and pretending it does is getting sillier by the day.

          Nothing disenfranchising about unlinking 2 completely different systems that really shouldn’t have been linked to begin with. Licensing drivers and voting together automatically doesn’t make sense if you’re granting licenses to those who aren’t eligible to vote…
