"New database of US voter fraud finds no evidence that photo ID laws are needed"

Meanwhile, in Mexico...

"In order to vote, all Mexican citizens must have registered before the election and have obtained a voter’s ID that includes one’s photograph, name, address, fingerprint and age." - Link to PDF document

How can you have a case of ID fraud if you do not check ID?

If there is "no evidence" photo ID is required for voting, then why does anybody have to show an ID when cashing a check, buying liquor or cigarettes, signing a mortgage, getting a traffic stop, entering a secure area, or a host of other reasons people are asked for it every day in the normal course of business?

What's so special about voting that it is singularly excluded? Shouldn't we just take everybody at their word they are honest and are who and what they say they are??

Of course we know the answer. It makes f-r-a-u-d easier for those stealing elections!

Bush vs. Gore/Loserman came down to 537 votes out of 146 million registered voters. That's 0.00037%. Because of advances in marketing technology elections are frequently coming down to 50/50 coin tosses, so yes fraud can have a huge effect.

Democrats aren't the brightest criminals. The cell phone companies already have subscriber location data in their computers. If would be easy to detect if a free Obamaphone traveled to multiple voting places on election day.

“Minnesota Leads the Nation in Voter Fraud Convictions”

ST. PAUL, Minn., Oct. 13, 2011— Minnesota Majority today released a report on voter fraud convictions to date stemming from Minnesota’s 2008 general election. The report finds that 113 individuals who voted illegally in the 2008 election have been convicted of the crime, “ineligible voter knowingly votes” under Minnesota Statute 201.014.

“As far as we can tell, this is the largest number of voter fraud convictions arising from a single election in the past 75 years,” said Minnesota Majority president Jeff Davis, “Prosecutions are still underway and so there will likely be even more convictions.”

If election officials are not checking for voter fraud, it is pretty difficult to find any case of fraud.

If the police are not checking for drivers who are speeding, it is pretty difficult to find any case of speeding.

Given the lengths to which the Democrats are going to defend their anti-ID stance, it alone indicates massive voter fraud.

Absolutely amazing that so many people would attempt ID deceptions while buying liquor, cashing checks, and boarding airplanes, but nobody would ever do it while voting. I guess that just shows how much Americans revere our political process. Probably because we have such inspirational leadership.

A new nationwide analysis of 2,068 alleged election-fraud cases since 2000 shows that while fraud has occurred, the rate is infinitesima

It permitted Al Frankenfraud to steal a Senate seat and thus pass Obamacare.

Theft has consequence.

Of course, the idiots who created and analyzed the database are and remain clueless that over 1.8 million DEAD people are still registered to vote.....nope, we don’t need no stinking voter ID requirements, none at all. /s =.=

Without a voter ID requirement there is no way to see voter fraud happening or prove after the fact, thus there no evidence of it.

A Government that sends 23,000 tax refund checks to a SINGLE home address in Fla isn't going have much luck finding voter fraud with the current system.

Absentee ballots sent in mass to mental hospitals and rest homes might be a good place to start looking though.

“Voter fraud at the polls is an insignificant aspect of American elections,” said elections expert David Schultz, professor of public policy at Hamline University School of Business in St. Paul, Minn.

Does he lend his name too, to 'Global Warming' defense teams as well?

What a crock. . .and offered with a straight face. Liberals are so practiced, of course. . .

actually, i agree with that article.
i believe that type of voter fraud,
is almost insignificant. a mosquito.
...the alligator, is the absentee ballots,
and in illegal immigratns voting
(most of whom, have photo ID anyway.)
-
Acorn and their descendants, didn’t go to the effort,
of registerings millions of illegal voters, for nothing.
but i think most voter fraud is done by absentee ballots.
-
i think that except for military overseas,
that if someone wants to exercise their right to vote,
they should have to show up at the polls,
(WITH ID to prove who they are!)

Remind me again; which town was recently found to have a number of “registered voters” that was 500% of the voting population?

Does he really think that officials in Chicago, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Cleveland and Cincinnati are going to own up to their voter fraud?

You didn’t build that database... Or maybe you did.

I live in a large county with less than 8,000 residents. When I go to vote, my name is located on the voter roll sheet, I then provide ID to prove I am that person. Now, I am known by many folks, including those performing the verification, yet in order to receive my ballot I must prove who I am. Soooo....what is the problem?
