What is this guy talking about? I want absentee ballots limited to those who are unable to be present at their polling places on Election Day. Convenience is not for what absentee ballots were intended.

This dunce is allowed to teach children. A merit system would have him wiping your car dry outside an automatic car wash.

“That survey found that impersonation fraud is almost non-existent—10 allegations across the country in the last decade.”

James O’keefe has been handed ballots to cast, “fraudulent” votes in multiple elections. He’s filmed this several times, offering to show ID and being told not to worry, to the point of the actual ballot being in his hands. He returned these ballots but could have easily proceeded to vote.

Look at it this way:

All it takes is one fraudulent voter to negate your vote.

That one fraudulent vote deprives you personally of your constitutional right to effectively cast a vote for the candidate you support.

A fraudulent voter steals our constitutional right.

Democrats carry on about voter ID laws disenfranchising voters, but that is exactly what they are doing to legal voters when they fight against safeguards that protect the election process against fraud.

But the tell that Republicans were not serious about fraud prevention was their failure to call for laws limiting absentee balloting to those with a valid excuse for not voting at the polling place

He is right about this, the real threat is the absentee ballot. But, its nonsense to suggest that the Democrat Party is not working overtime to facilitate voter fraud. The evidence for that is overwhelming.
