FEC Chair Says Trump ‘Undermines Democracy’ With Voter Fraud Claims

Federal Election Commission (FEC) Chairwoman Ellen Weintraub argued Monday that a failure to accept the results of free and fair elections “undermines our democracy.”

“There is no evidence of rampant voter fraud in 2016,” Weintraub told CNN host John Berman. “To be suggesting to people that if the candidate they choose doesn’t win, that it’s because of fraud, that undermines our democracy.”

Weintraub was pushing back against President Donald Trump’s repeated accusations of voter fraud that he has claimed may have cost him a greater margin of victory in 2016.

We had video of cars, with ONLY a driver in each, stopping next to a truck dropping off ballot boxes full of ballots!

That is a complete violation of election procedure - must have been thousands and thousands of votes.

I realized that I should have corrected that just as I posted.

Spot on.

Made her start through various ethic committees in an age where corruption runs rampant.

Is a “reformed” Jewish person who thinks the 10 Commandments and the Torah is a patriarchal control device that represses females/minorities.

A Democrat.

Should be tarred and feathered.

Vote fraud is REAL, or the libs wouldn’t be fighting against voter I.D.

Somebody please inform the lady that her opposition to Voter ID proves she doesn’t REALLY give a bleep about FREE and FAIR elections. POTUS Trump’s attempts to get universal voter ID, limited only to those who can prove citizenship, proves that he DOES give a bleep. Democrats fight Voter ID because it would limit their ability to cheat.

There dozens of incidents of voter fraud, some are recorded on tape. Of course The Stupid Party is too dumb, stupid, or lazy to bother mentioning this.

He’s been grotesquely misled on hires. McCain suggested Generals McMaster and Kelly. Mitch and Riense Priebus suggested a bunch of RINOs. Adter Flynn was tossed, the whole national security team was filled with Obama hold-overs and traitors and globalists. Then when he comes up for air, Javanka throws in some Progressive friends, anti 2Am, pro abort, pro Gay.

I am beginning to think the large number of Judges confirmed are half baked also. I heard there was a deal with Schumer that it is one for you and two for us. He’s seated over 150 and about that many more are waiting.

Mitch and Ryan were always anti-Trumpers.

I must have missed the FEC investigating 5000 last minute out of state voter registrations

And confirming that they actually moved to NH

So vote fraud doesn’t undermine democracy, but contesting vote fraud does?

Or he’s saying that he thinks voter fraud is democracy. He probably meant “democrats”.

In 2016, there were estimated 2 million illegal votes in California alone, which explains how their legislators include Adam Schiff, Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris. California is so off the rails that garbage is not being collected and bubonic plague is a serious threat, while their whole state legislature seems more concerned about creating another Marxist nightmare “utopia.”

This Leftist blotch needs to be fired pronto! These utterances are meant to create the narrative for future cover, for massive election fraud.

It’s really quite simple. We don’t have voter ID because that would make it too difficult for the Leftists to steal elections.

Wow, pretty much every major city in Cali has free and fair elections, now don’t they? No foreign nationals voting in our elections there! No bus loads of people coming up from Mass to vote in New Hampshire are there. Damn deep state.
