    ... states already do this, and quite well, as there is almost no fraudulent voting in federal elections.

    Also, this effort by the Trump DOJ is obviously being done at the behest of a criminal, and one who we all clearly saw illegaly try to overturn an election. So this effort most likely has absolutely nothing to do with helping police voter rolls, and instead is about disenfranchising likely opposition voters. Obviously.

    But if you'd like to know more;

    I think this is just another thing that will bite republicans in the butt when registered republicans start getting purged, but my guess is it is the states that will do this with the Feds providing financial support along with deadlines to get it done. My question is that when it’s done will republicans finally start accepting election results when they lose?

    Oh, I see; the guy who said that Trump is in the Epstein files should be trusted on this. :)

    As far as blue states, voter ID, whatever ..... have you any evidence of voter fraud in such states? Or do you want to just make an accusatory insinuation that you cannot back up to slightest degree?

    As they say, "Put up or ..." well, you know the rest.

    Waiting on your evidence of large scale voter fraud. :)

    Epstein files? Lol you may as well fall for the Russia Collusion delusion all over again. Do you really think that the Dems would have held that piece of information for this long if it were true? Critical Thinking says NOT...

    The problem with voter ID is that if someone has to pay money to get one then it’s a poll tax. Another problem is some states severely limit what form of identification they’ll accept. My husband has a VA card which is a government ID card with his photo. They wouldn’t accept it as valid.

    That has been debunked for years. Virtually every state gives free picture IDs to those that are indigent. Some states only take their state IDs.

    As a condition of providing picture IDs states require birth certificates or in some cases a certificate of naturalization. Virtually every state (there may be a few exceptions) charges for duplicate birth certificates.

    You're wasting your time. They don't listen. They don't want to know facts. It's a circular argument that can't be won - we've seen this for years. Maybe decades.

    IMo it should be instantly cut short by asking them for their evidence of voter fraud. They won't change their minds or learn anything, but they'll probably leave the thread.

    Well you haven’t shown me how things have changed or evidence that it’s been debunked for years so why should I believe you?

    For the true believers it’s a waste of time, and if that’s the case they’ll just insist I’m wrong with nothing else to offer. However there’s that chance I’m wrong, and if I am then I’d like to know it.

    There’s literally an article from a reputable news outlet talking about how the FBI had Trump’s name completely redacted out of the files, but yeah, he’s not in there. Lol.

    Man I wish we had commissions to study and investigate this recently.

    Really they want to use address verification of folks who move often and don’t have updated ID to exclude. Far bigger numbers of actual people.

    Now there is real legal election fraud ongoing right now. Yup, partisan redistricting.

    cant we just ask AI to do it fairly be related areas. That way Russia or Elon can take care of it.

    Speaking of duplicates.
    Tiffany Trump, Steve Bannon, Steven Mnuchin Registered to Vote in Multiple States

    I was probably technically guilty of the same. When I moved to Virginia and registered to vote in Alexandria I never bothered to cancel my registration in Alachua County. I assume that my name was ultimately purged from the voter rolls after not voting in several elections.
