President Trump will sign an executive order Thursday to start an investigation into voter fraud, according to ABC News.
Vice President Mike Pence
and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach will be named chair and vice chair, respectively, of the "Presidential Commission on Election Integrity," the report said. The commission will be announced later Thursday.
Lawmakers from both parties will be included in the commission, and they will review vulnerabilities in U.S. voting systems, as well as any possible cases of "improper voting, fraudulent voter registrations and fraudulent voting," ABC reported. The commission will be charged with reviewing Trump's allegations of mass voter fraud in the 2016 election as well as "systemic issues that have been raised over many years in terms of the integrity of the elections."
Voter suppression will also be an issue taken up by the commission to draw Democrats to join the effort.
The commission would be expected to present its results sometime in 2018.

1. Voter ID
2. Repeal of motor voter registration
3. Tightening of absentee ballot rules (No casual absentee voting)
4. Harsh penalties for voter fraud
5. Aggressive enforcement
That should go a long way to stopping the voter fraud

The leftists are likely busy shopping for a judge close to retirement willing to rule this “unconstitutional”.

So while idiot fake news runs around “Comey, Comey, Comey” Trump’s agenda marches on. This is Gen. Johnston running around southern TN while Sherman ignores him and just marches straight to the objective, Charleston.

“It’s voter suppression!” will be the left’s hue and cry.

"Voter suppression will also be an issue taken up by the commission to draw Democrats to join the effort"
Voter suppression of illegal aliens, no doubt. The unfair need for any identification.

Well, the estimate is that Hillary stole 20 or 30 million votes, although many of those in California served no useful purpose except for the lamestream press to blather about her tremendous popularity.
Republicans used to steal votes, too, which evened things up, but for the most part they seem to have given that up.
