President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order today establishing a commission to review alleged voter fraud and voter suppression in the American election system, multiple senior administration officials tell ABC News.
The officials say Vice President Mike Pence and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach will be announced as Chair and Vice Chair of the ‘Presidential Commission on Election Integrity’ in a press release today. It's not clear whether the White House will allow coverage of the order signing.

Good for Trump
Here we go again. Lawsuits
Great move, the only way Trump has a chance of re-election is to go after the cheating. He won last time because the rats underestimated how much
cheating they had to do.
Paper ballots, folks. Paper ballots.
I’m actually going to predict transparent, open source, blockchain, etc., but we’ll see.
IMHO, a commission like this should not be established without a strong sunset provision.
There’s a lot of waste and duplication of effort in the government. Commissions like this are part of the problem.
In today’s government, it’s very difficult to rescind something once it’s created. nobamacare as an excellent example.
Kobach has been a champion in this fight for years. And we knows he's been over & hitting the target by all the flack he's been taking from the corrupt leftwing media:

I bet 400 quatloos on the Soros judge...
They are critics - but critics, specifically, of society:SOME writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness; the former promotes our happiness POSITIVELY by uniting our affections, the latter NEGATIVELY by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher.Those “critics” are those whom Paine referred to as “some writers,” and they are socialists (if they weren’t self-styled “objective reporters,” they would be self-styled “liberals”).Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil . . . - Thomas Paine, Common Sense (1776)
They criticize society by reporting bad news exclusively about the people and institutions which make society work. The natural implication of criticizing society is to promote the idea that society needs to be closely controlled. By, naturally, government under the direction of journalists.
And I hope they start with vote fraud in Virginia. In your face McAwful (the governor).
Well said my FRiend.
A few precincts could be sneaked by, but it would have taken too many to push Clinton over the the line, thus showing overt voter fraud. They finally had to call it for Trump.
Single day voting!
Leftist Federal Judge to usurp control over election law in 3.....2.....1.......
