Whoops!
Several county clerks in Colorado said they've seen hundreds of people withdraw their voter registrations following the state's announcement that it would comply with President Trump's voter fraud commission. In Denver, a spokesperson for the Denver Elections Division said 180 people have withdrawn their registrations in the county since Monday, according to a Denver Channel report.
In Arapahoe County, which contains the city of Aurora, at least 160 people have withdrawn their registrations since July 1. The counties normally see fewer than 10 withdrawn registrations in similar time frames. Colorado Secretary of State Wayne Williams said last week he would submit the registrations requested by the Trump administration.
The Trump administration is an object lesson in willpower. Just the hint of a crackdown -- on illegal immigration, on voter fraud -- gets almost immediate results. It's human nature to take advantage of a sucker's game for as long as the taking is good, but once the force of law rears its head, most folks think better of it.
Most folks, not all:
Numerous states have said they won't comply with the request for voter registrations, which include the last four digits of Social Security numbers and other identifying information. CNN reported earlier this week that 44 states refused to comply with the request by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who serves as vice chair of the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity.

When they were doing the recount of Michigan, fraud was revealed and suddenly the recount was stopped. Granted this was to get Michigan’s electoral votes counted but it would have been interesting if it had continued.
Massive voter fraud supported and sustained by the Democrat Party...across the entire nation!!! End of story!!!
We’re supposed to feel bad for them, “Being forced to do this,” after they bragged about voting multiple times for Obama in ‘08 and ‘12?
Ummmmmmm..... No.
I hope they all go to prison.
They might have noticed that, in Detroit, five out of every four ballots were cast for Hillary.
I have a feeling that just the creation of the commission will lead to a drop in fraudulent voting, just as just talking about the wall has led to a significant decline in illegals entering the country.
To be fair, some states are not complying because it is unlawful for them to do so. Certain states (Maine, I believe, is one) are not permitted to release the types of information that the Commission is asking for.
> said they won’t comply with the request for voter registrations, which include the last four digits of Social Security numbers
That means they’l have more matches. So instead of saying “5 million people voted illegally” they’ll be able to say “up to 7 million people voted illegally” or “there are questions about 3 million votes in LA & SanFran” (made up numbers but that’s the idea).
In previous years, Ds would count on the media to deny the numbers. But, with Trump tweeting about what they were able to find with available data AND non-cooperation from states delivering the data needed to get better numbers AND non-cooperation from Ds in improving the election system (i.e. voter id), the Ds will have a tough time in any red/purple district in 2018.
I’m against state’s delivering voting data to the feds. But there is a big problem that needs to be fixed - the problem is trust in election outcome (whether or not fraud is as big/small as anyone says). Ds need to work toward a fix or Trump can hurt them in all but the bluest of states/districts. The question is if the lost illegal votes is a bigger than the lost of legitimate votes that Trump can take from them on this issue.
“...talking about the wall has led to a significant decline in illegals entering the country.”....
Perhaps all those who intended to be here are already here and are some of those names not wishing to be discovered.
Voter fraud strikes at the very heart of the republic.
For this reason,firing squads instead of prison.
Pup reporters with the smart phones can quickly check out the stories and post the clips on Youtube.
It might be an entertaining project for local senior citizens.
Serve coffee and cookies after the search.
Blockchain assures only one man, one vote. Multiple registrations and fraudulent registrations would be caught. TSA approved ID would at least provide a baseline as TSA IDs are based on citizenship status and traceable to a birth certificate.
Blockchain is a sort of distributed database with redundant checks and balances that make it impossible to hack.
You would think the democrats would want the investigation so we could find that Russian tampering. /s
If there is no voter fraud, then there is nothing to find, right democrats? If all voter fraud were eliminated I don't think democrats could ever win the White House again.....
We were all supposed to have a plan in place, nation wide, by 2008 (I think) that would allow cross checks between states and counties to uncover duplicate registrations and eliminate them. Wisconsin spent mega bucks under Democrat Governor Jim Doyle on a program that didn’t work and was never fully implemented. It was one of the many reasons that the people kicked the Democrats out of State Government here. I don’t know what happened to everybody else’s program.
Of course, in my youth it was unthinkable to register illegal aliens or felons. Now, the Democrats favor allowing both of those populations to vote freely and as many times as they like!
The fight against vote fraud needs to go full press. The left was so confident against Trump. They had to have had at least 5 million in the bag. They are sycophants and will double down in the midterms and next presidential.
A dirty little secret that many county official and election offices don't like to broadcast is, they regularly sell this and other "public" information to polling companies, those running for office plus advertising agencies to earn big bucks, though not as much as they used to as the public has learned this IS public information, not necessarily how you vote but that you are registered to vote and that you did!
You want the information, you can buy it too!
How else do you thug the courts get people for jury pools?
Nah, Kobach and company can get this information without any help of Secretaries of the various states but it is easier with their help.
Who do those folks think they are kidding, if pollsters and ad agencies (you know, they're the ones regularly sending you mail for hearing aids, vacation rentals and yes, the infamous "Publisher's Clearing House") regularly buy your information, this public posturing about "protecting the privacy of the voter registrations," is slop for the masses, who know little but believe lies yet want to be "protected from those evil conservatives by their government masters!"
Ugh - so much for spell check! “Not thug but think,” sorry
