On Eve of Election, Americans Should Take Voter Fraud Seriously
The Daily Signal ^ | November 7, 2016 | Jason Snead

It’s only a day before the election. Millions of Americans are putting the stamps on their absentee ballots; millions more are preparing to take their (highly discouraged and possibly illegal) ballot box selfies. The rest of us will don “I voted” stickers and settle in for what promises to be a long night of breaking news in elections across the country.

But some can’t take the suspense and would prefer to have a “sure thing.” Elections are the path to power in our political system, and for these fraudsters, the will of the people is far too fickle a thing to rely upon when it comes to furthering their careers and their causes.

They would rather manipulate the results and steal elections than risk losing, and the poor state of electoral security in the United States all but ensures that, in many cases, they can get away with it.

Of course, many liberals will tell you otherwise. They insist—loudly and often—that voter fraud is a myth. They are flat wrong, as The Heritage Foundation’s voter fraud database proves. With this week’s new entries, we have cataloged nearly 450 instances (many involving multiple perpetrators) across 45 states where allegations of election fraud have been proven in courts of law and resulted in criminal convictions or overturned elections.

That number is startlingly high, but hardly reflective of the true scale of the problem. The fact is, few states have the tools in place to detect fraud, before or after it occurs, and few prosecutors have the time and resources to prioritize voting fraud prosecutions once an election is over.

Here are some of the new entries from our database:

Going forward, this has got to be fixed. We can no longer be apathetic. All the state houses should clear the voter roles, demand proof of citizenship, and prosecute the hell out of voter fraud.

President Trump needs to ram through VOTER ID and secure the ballot box. There was way too much voter fraud this time around.

I will believe it’s legit and Trump won only when Hillary concedes. I’m so cynical I think this could all be a trick.

I’m sure Trump took it seriously.
