Justice Dept. Demands Millions of North Carolina Voter Records, Confounding Elections Officials

Federal prosecutors have issued sweeping subpoenas demanding that millions of North Carolina voter records be turned over to immigration authorities by Sept. 25.

With just two months to go before the midterms, the subpoenas threatened to sow chaos in the state’s election machinery, while renewing the Trump administration’s repeatedly discredited claims of widespread voting by illegal immigrants.

The unsealed grand jury subpoenas were sent to the state elections board and to 44 county elections boards in eastern North Carolina. Their existence became widely known after Marc E. Elias, a voting rights lawyer aligned with the Democratic Party, mentioned them on Twitter.

Though the nature, scope and impetus of the federal investigation that generated the subpoenas remain shrouded in mystery, the move appeared to be part of an effort to find and crack down on any unauthorized voting by noncitizens.

Doesn’t make sense looking for illegal alien voters in NC, probably not enough to sway an election there. This has to be a back door (ICE investigation) to look at the voting records for something else. I suspect that something else is institutional voter fraud. Looking for people registered and voting in two states, like Virginia and N.C., or former felons, multiple votes in different counties, and the dead voting. If I had to guess, that’s what is going on, that’s why the indictments.

Me next, Me next!

California sans voter fraud is purple at best. Heck you don’t need ID or even need to speak English to vote here.

In 2016 Hilary got ~ 3000 - 6000 illegal votes in California (mostly LA area).

There are more illegals in California than is claimed for the entire US..... (more or less) I’d guess ~ 8-10,000 in California alone...

Our former sheriff speaks out about this on a regular basis.......no ID to register...... It’s a major (but not the only reason)- we’re a one party state.

Subpoenas are NOT indictments.

If the powers to be look at the voting records objectively they will find overwhelming evidence of voter fraud on the part of the democRATS.

Precedent

By going after the target deemed to be the easiest, precedent is set for the more difficult targets

ICE needs to raid a couple of those poultry Processing plants and 1/4 of the Carolina’s population would be sent back home to Crap-a-stan and Mexifornia.

“Why just North Carolina? Voter fraud is rampant across the U.S.”

One state at a time. Do this over the next two years to clean up red states that either went Democrat or based on voter registration will go Democrat.

As long as it is done “by the book” this should happen in every state.

They used the same technique with the planned parenthood recordings. Every mention of them in the ‘news’ referred to them as ‘heavily edited’. Who you going to believe—us or your own lying eyes and ears?

Yes, you are correct.

However, since voter fraud is rampant all across the country, breaking the back of one state & PROVING that voter fraud is a big problem, gets the attention of the legal citizens who have the right to vote.

It also puts all the other states on notice that Trump is serious about ending their voter fraud practices of decades duration.

Over 2 MILLION Los Angeles County ‘voters’ REGISTERED & VOTED in the Nov 2016 election. They were given ‘Provisional ballots’.

Someone needs to fully explain how such ballots are handled & counted.

Hillary claimed a victory of a few million, and I contend that her ‘popular vote’ victory was based upon voter fraud. In any event, All citizens of the USA deserve an election that is more honest.

Obama told people when he was campaigning: Go ahead & vote! IF you vote, YOU ARE A CITIZEN. He lied-—and he did it more than once.

“repeatedly discredited claims”

NYT: We repeatedly published that the claims were discredited. Sheesh, what do you people want? We’re lying as fast as we can type.

Please, North Carolina has all the registrations and records online. Just make a copy for ICE. https://vt.ncsbe.gov/RegLkup/

Have you seen the Hispanic population of NC? There are large numbers of illegals in NC. Same in Atlanta. When you consider how close some races are they can definitely flip the results by voting. Spanish language radio uses scare tactics to get them to vote for open borders candidates.
