FEC Chair Says Trump ‘Undermines Democracy’ With Voter Fraud Claims
dailycaller.com ^ | 8/19/2019 | Virginia Kruta

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.

She’s Delusional, in a state of denial, and a leftist shit.

No wonder she wants to cover up the Democrats nationwide voter fraud (illegals voting, alien residents voting, people falsifying the home state so that they can vote in two different states, convicted felons voting, etc.

What could be wrong with this, other than to have it exposed (as opposed to FED sanctioned cover-ups)?

FIRE her leftist ass now and keep American elections clean.

Weintraub should be expressing this viewpoint to Hillary Clinton and Mueller, who obviously did NOT accept the results of a free and fair election.

Not accepting the results of an election...that covers just about the entire RAT party, doesn’t it?

Yep, the last time the Dems accepted the results of a Presidential election won by a Republican was in ‘88, almost 31 years ago.

Um, since Trump won why would he suggest he didn’t win because of fraud?
