Election fraud and cheating is a problem that has multiple dimensions, because there quite a number of different ways available to those with criminal mindsets to destroy the integrity of the election process.
Therefore, it is unlikely that no single step, not even voter ID requirements, will by satisfactory by itself to practically deal with all of it. This posted WaPo article discusses only one of those kinds of cheating: non-citizens voting. The solution I suggested would combat only that.
There are a list of other changes in election procedure we have discussed in the past here that should be effected to neutralize other types of election cheating schemes.
As to "Holder and Obama's large assembly of lawyers," hopefully they will be gone in a couple of years. In the meantime, rest assured we are fighting them as well as possible with our own lawyers.
Agreed that all ballots should be in English only. Printing bilingual or multi-lingual ballots is just a waste of money, but its mandated by some ill-advised left-inspired federal legislation from several decades ago, legislation which should be repealed. All voters, by law, are American citizens, and as such, should be literate in English sufficiently to read a ballot.
When people do not honor oaths that they have to take, that is an indication of how far we are from a just society.
The root of the problem is really outside of the election booth. Love of country ought to trump political bias.
Exposure, prosecution, and prison time would help cure this treason.
I am tracking this down and would like others to also do it. If true, this could explain much about Republican passivity in the face of this terrible and obvious threat to the Republic.
Vote fraud and fraudulent registration is sure-fire way to get us into CWII, which I am not so sure isn't the Demoocrat's plan to bring on Revolution II, and the brand new Socialist world.

You may be right here....
Most of what the dems do is propaganda. It works so well when fear and loss of hope is invoked. Actually, the dems do not need the illegals to win. All they have to do is tell you this is what they are going to do. Ever wonder why the races according to the polls or actual elections get so close near the end? The Republicans do this too. They have been doing voter fraud inch by inch for years. It’s up to the American people to stand up to this and not back down. A young kid which I have heard of and seen applied can robot vote. It’s time to look at our local and state governments. Yes, voter ID is clearly needed; but think about real security too as most countries that have ID cards are not free countries. Our country seems to be moving in this direction which is not good. We have to look at the people who are running and put into office at the local and state level as well as the Federal level. They are the beginning of what is wrong. It’s as far as they are concerned a one way trip to the gravy land. It’s obvious when they run people like Hillary, Obama, Wendy Davis, Mitch, Jeb Bush they could care less about the people or this country. I know it’s a real mess and didn’t happen over night. They all have a pretty sweet deal going thanks to other outside forces. It’s time to stand up and clean this mess up.
A very good book I have been reading is “Inventing Freedom, How the English Speaking Peoples Made the Modern Economy” by Daniel Hannan. It is very enlightening. It doesn’t point fingers; rather it tells the history through facts of how this happened. Hubby who is not liberal at all or particularly conservative until he started reading this book thought what is really going on is not how he thought it is. His eyes have have much to my delight been opened.
OK, technically you are correct. But election fraud and cheating cases are predominantly 'Rat, from the days of Boss Tweed and Tammany Hall and other crooked big city machines in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, through the LBJ ballot box stuffing in Texas (in a Democrat primary), to the Daley machine in Chicago in the 1960 presidential election, and moving forward toward current times with the the Obama election of 2012. (Couldn't include all the notable instances of 'Rat election fraud and cheating in a single book.)
What is particularly frightening now is the advent of electronic voting and vote counting devices, which can be hacked, and as in the recent incident in Cook County, Illinois, "miscalibrated" (touch screens). With electronic devices, the cheaters can alter many more votes with much less of an effort than their predecessors of earlier days. They would probably call it "efficiency." In fact they don't even have to bring aliens to the polls to do their dirty work.
electronic devices with no paper trail should be illegal ... a violation of 14th amendment.
That sentence is so on target that it should be in Bartlett's Book of Quotations!
But I don't think the country as a whole considers discrimination between citizens and non-citizens as wrong. It's only the view of a leftist minority which, by cheating and stealth, has gained control of the levers of the federal government and has caused much of the opposition to cower in fear.
Former Congressman Bob Dornan lost his re-election in Orange Co., CA because of illegals voting, and I’m told by politicos that the GOP, at the time, didn’t even try to help him.
I’m afraid it’s just as bad, if not worse, now. That’s why I feel we need more Republicans who are not afraid to fight against non-citizens being allowed to vote as well as being against blanket amnesty.
I feel all of this is tied in together because it shows the MENTALity of many Republican politicians.

I'm very well aware of that alien voting fraud that was pulled off in that Dornan-Sanchez race. IIRC, Dornan had a national radio talk show (or subbed for some host on one - Rush?) shortly after that election and discussed it on the air.
I couldn't possibly list all the elections where 'Rats cheated their way to wins they wouldn't otherwise have achieved, by various types of shenanigans. Maybe someone could write a reference history book on the subject.
Allen West is one other case of a Republican congressman who was cheated out of his re-election in Florida, probably mostly by vote counting fraud. (2012)
Yes, the Washington GOPe is scared about making noise about being ripped off by election theft, or at least has been in recent years. You have to wonder: what's their hang-up?
The House is the judge of it’s own elections. It should have overturned the election of LOR. Sanchez and sat Dornan. And Allen West and Martha McSally after this last election. And the Senate should have sat WOODY JENKINS, rightfully elected in Louisiana in 1996, and John Ensign, who rightfully defeated REID in 1998.
Used to happen all the time. We have not done it once since we first took back Congress, despite several stolen races.
Thanx for info.. Very interesting.
btw, the Chairman of the then NY Right-to-Life Party told me how the Republicans would not help Bob Dornan. Sad.
Hope we get more Republicans with guts, and loyalty, one of these years. So glad we have Ted Cruz, and some others, but we need WAY more CONSERVATIVE Republicans, who are not afraid of a fight.
“..You have to wonder: what’s their hang-up?”
They are CHICKEN, or don’t care, or are liberal themselves.
Guess we just have to work to primary the worst ones out of office. I also think if we primary a few out of office, it will send a message to the other weenies.
Thanks justiceseeker93.
