Trump Is Said to Pick Voter ID Advocate for Election Fraud Panel
New York Times ^ | May 11, 2017 | By JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVIS

President Trump plans to name Kris W. Kobach, the Kansas secretary of state who has pressed for aggressive measures to crack down on undocumented immigrants, to a long-promised commission to investigate voting fraud in the United States, a White House official said on Thursday.

The commission is the official follow-through on Mr. Trump’s unsubstantiated claim that several million “illegals” voted for his Democratic rival and robbed him of a victory in the national popular vote.

Mr. Kobach, who has championed the strictest voter identification laws in the country, will be the vice chairman of the commission, which is to be led by Vice President Mike Pence and is expected to include about a dozen others, including state officials from both political parties, the official said. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe an announcement expected later on Thursday.

I remember fondly all of the New York Times articles that included wording such as:

Very good choice but is it a “red herring” to cover up for not building the wall yet Anne? Skeletor - who is deep into stupid comments said this about Trump firing Comey. Really no fooling she did.

I am so sorry to hear that Canadians are racists who try to suppress minority voting. What you need is a nice motor voter bill and you can have a black socialist as your prime minister. You already have a white socialist, but that just proves that you have vestiges of racism and white privilege.

Yes, we are reminded every day what racists we are, and Islamophobes to boot, according to the shiny pony that is our Prime Minister.

I think there may be attempts in the future to get landed immigrants the right to vote.

LOL. Yes, we are so racist. I mean what is a undocumented Vietnam boat person to do?
