An ...analysis of roughly 13,500 affidavits submitted in Texas' largest counties found at least 500 instances in which voters were allowed to get around the law by signing an affidavit and never showing a photo ID, despite indicating that they possessed one....

One affidavit from Hidalgo County, along the Texas-Mexico border, read: "Did not want to 'pander' to government requirement." In Tarrant County, an election judge noted on an affidavit: "Had photo ID but refused to show it."

I'm sure the fact that this news was released on a Saturday morning on a holiday weekend is purely coincidental

First of all, if AP reports that their “analysis” uncovered 500 of 13,500 you know it’s much higher.

But even so, 4% is a healthy number when you take that and spread it out statewide. Or even nationally.

And that doesn’t even count the far left polling places in Texas where AP wrote: “widespread confusion among poll workers and voters” took place (i.e. they allowed fake ids and/or no affidavits to be signed).

Just imaghine the corruption in places like L.A. or Philly? Hillary got millions of illegal votes. If Trump and Sessions can make voter fraud a top priority in his first term, he’ll win reelection in a landslide.

By all means, let’s abolish the Electoral College and let illegal aliens in California determine our President.

Speaking of, the DNC will never let California secede for just that reason. I’m sure they figure it would easier to get rid of the college than to survive without California’s voters and 9th Circus shenanigans.

“Can’t be...the Left says illegals don’t vote.”

There are no words to describe the perfidy of the left.

(Scu%bags they are, and scu%bags they will always be.)

IMHO

perfidy...deceitfulness; untrustworthiness.

That should be the word of the day!

[Officials in many other areas say they will simply let the mistakes go, citing widespread confusion among poll workers and voters.]

This is why few voter fraud cases are brought to light or prosecuted. There is no upside for many state and local election official to expose illegal voting. A Democrat elections supervisor or registrar is not likely to investigate illegal voting that benefits Democrats. And in big city machine politics (Detroit in 2016 for one) election officials are often part of the conspiracy.

Voting improperly would imply they voted for the wrong candidate. Voting illegaly. That would mean they should not have voted at all.

Time to knock off the sensitivity b.s. and deal with the situation are hand.

I never thought about that but that’s a good point really. It took me a while to realize that the Dems don’t really care about socialism but really just care about power, and socialism is a convenient means to that end.

It would be interesting to know how many of these occurred during early
voting days as opposed to how many occurred on election day.

This can’t be. Precedent Barky told us that voter fraud is a myth!

“Can’t be...the Left says illegals don’t vote.”

But the MSM article oh so helpfully tells you these were "Texans". So must be US citizens, then if they are "Texans".

Just like the sob stories of "mom of four taken away to jail, to be deported". No mention of being an illegal alien who's been living on a stolen identity for years.

Nope, just "mom", being taken away for no reason whatsoever.

Probably Trump "wanting" to break up families.

God how I hate the media.

“voted improperly”

AKA fraudulently.
