Is There Voter Fraud In The U.S.?



Washington Post: Trump seeks ‘major investigation’ into unsupported claims of voter fraud

President Trump plans to ask “for a major investigation” into allegations of widespread voter fraud, as he continues to claim without providing evidence that he lost the popular vote in November's election because millions of illegal votes were cast, according to tweets posted Wednesday.

The White House has yet to provide details, but Trump said in back-to-back tweets that the investigation would cover “those registered to vote in two states, those who are illegal” and “those registered to vote who are dead (and many for a long time)." Trump used all capitals — VOTER FRAUD — for emphasis.

“Depending on results,” Trump tweeted, “we will strengthen up voting procedures!”

WNU Editor: The media narrative yesterday was the following .... Without evidence, Trump tells lawmakers 3 million to 5 million illegal ballots cost him the popular vote (Washington Post). To put it bluntly .... the news media universally ripped into President Trumps claims of voter fraud. Today .... in answer to yesterday's claims we now have an announcement that there will be an investigation to find out if there is evidence of voter fraud .... but the reaction is now opposite .... condemning such an investigation. What's my take .... what is there to hide? If there is no voter fraud and all of these claims are unfounded .... which is what everyone was claiming yesterday ..... we will all find out the truth and at the end President Trump will look like a fool. So I say .... what is there to lose? Apparently .... as I listed in the links below ..... there is a lot of people who do not share my confidence that there is nothing to lose.

that would mean some 3 million who voted beyond what Trump got were fraudulent votes. Hardly likely. And, if so, what does it matter since Trump won the office? And if FBI to look into it, then reveal to public about Russian and Wiki connection and DNC etc

Carl said...

And yet the same news media outlets want us to believe that Trump only won the election because of Russian interference. What nonsense.

John fund has documented plenty of reasons to suspect voter fraud.

LBJ election as a representative shows that voter fraud has a long history in the U.S. LBJ bragged bout it. He got a photo with the evidence.

There was voter fraud that got Governor Gregoire elected in the state of Washington. You should checkout the international district in Seattle. there were a lot of suspect votes there. It basically Chinatown and a big warehouse district. (Liberal MoFo-ers were bound and determined to relabel Chinatown, the internationals district. It makes them look more inclusive. They have to virtue signal if they want to stay in good standing.

There was voter fraud that got the SNL comedian elected as Senator of Minnesota.

You average libtard stupid MFer opines all day everyday about how we should be more like Europe. You bring up European voter ID and the peckerheads go silent.

The Left has a lot to lose.

Re: Fred's comment above.
If true, so it doesn't happen again and it clears the media naysayers.
If false, then Trump trumped up those numbers and he's been spreading this fake news for months!

"suggests that the 2016 general election was not tainted by fraud or mistake. Governor Snyder has said so. [...] So too has the White House. [...] Even the chief-council to second-place finisher Hillary Clinton concedes there is no evidence of any tampering that would warrant a recount."

Gotta love the way Trump keeps playing the rubes.

LMAO,

That's the sworn statement by the Trump Campaign in their petition in the Michigan Recount.

"On the sixth day of Hate Week, after the processions, the speeches, the shouting, the singing, the banners, the posters, the films, the waxworks, the rolling of drums and squealing of trumpets, the tramp of marching feet, the grinding of the caterpillars of tanks, the roar of massed planes, the booming of guns — after six days of this, when the great orgasm was quivering to its climax and the general hatred of Eurasia had boiled up into such delirium that if the crowd could have got their hands on the 2,000 Eurasian war-criminals who were to be publicly hanged on the last day of the proceedings, they would unquestionably have torn them to pieces — at just this moment it had been announced that Oceania was not after all at war with Eurasia. Oceania was at war with Eastasia. Eurasia was an ally.

There was, of course, no admission that any change had taken place. Merely it became known, with extreme suddenness and everywhere at once, that Eastasia and not Eurasia was the enemy. Winston was taking part in a demonstration in one of the central London squares at the moment when it happened. It was night, and the white faces and the scarlet banners were luridly floodlit. The square was packed with several thousand people, including a block of about a thousand schoolchildren in the uniform of the Spies. On a scarlet-draped platform an orator of the Inner Party, a small lean man with disproportionately long arms and a large bald skull over which a few lank locks straggled, was haranguing the crowd. A little Rumpelstiltskin figure, contorted with hatred, he gripped the neck of the microphone with one hand while the other, enormous at the end of a bony arm, clawed the air menacingly above his head. His voice, made metallic by the amplifiers, boomed forth an endless catalogue of atrocities, massacres, deportations, lootings, rapings, torture of prisoners, bombing of civilians, lying propaganda, unjust aggressions, broken treaties. It was almost impossible to listen to him without being first convinced and then maddened. At every few moments the fury of the crowd boiled over and the voice of the speaker was drowned by a wild beast-like roaring that rose uncontrollably from thousands of throats. The most savage yells of all came from the schoolchildren. The speech had been proceeding for perhaps twenty minutes when a messenger hurried on to the platform and a scrap of paper was slipped into the speaker’s hand. He unrolled and read it without pausing in his speech. Nothing altered in his voice or manner, or in the content of what he was saying, but suddenly the names were different. Without words said, a wave of understanding rippled through the crowd. Oceania was at war with Eastasia! The next moment there was a tremendous commotion. The banners and posters with which the square was decorated were all wrong! Quite half of them had the wrong faces on them. It was sabotage! The agents of Goldstein had been at work! There was a riotous interlude while posters were ripped from the walls, banners torn to shreds and trampled underfoot. The Spies performed prodigies of activity in clambering over the rooftops and cutting the streamers that fluttered from the chimneys. But within two or three minutes it was all over. The orator, still gripping the neck of the microphone, his shoulders hunched forward, his free hand clawing at the air, had gone straight on with his speech. One minute more, and the feral roars of rage were again bursting from the crowd. The Hate continued exactly as before, except that the target had been changed.

The thing that impressed Winston in looking back was that the speaker had switched from one line to the other actually in midsentence, not only without a pause, but without even breaking the syntax."

NO!

To say or imply there was no voter fraud is a falsehood. No matter how small the voter fraud was. To say only republicans are responsible for it is falsehood as the recount if Detroit area proved. Also in past elections many counts of democrat voter fraud was not only proven but people was convicted in court.
