Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. As reported by the National Reviews Deroy Murdock who did some state-by-state numbers-crunching some 3.5 million more people are registered to vote in the U.S. than are alive among Americas adult citizens. Such staggering inaccuracy is an engraved invitation to voter fraud.
Murdock (at right) analyzed Judicial Watchs state-by-state tally and found that 462 U.S. counties had a registration rate exceeding 100 of all eligible voters. Thats 3.552 million people who Murdock calls ghost voters.
And how many people is that? There are 21 states that dont have that many people.
Notes Murdock:
When Florida GOP Governor Rick Scott tried to obey the laws and update Floridas records including deleting 51308 deceased voters Obamas Justice Department filed a federal lawsuit to stop him. Federal prosecutors claimed that Governor Scotts statewide efforts violated the 1965 Voting Rights Act although it applies to only five of Floridas 67 counties. Thenattorney general Eric Holder and his team behaved as if Martin Luther King Jr. and the Freedom Riders fought so valiantly in order to keep cadavers politically active.
Yes America... American democracy has a voting problem. Its a troubling fact that puts our nations future in peril.
The data comes from Judicial Watchs Election Integrity Project. The group looked at U.S. Census Data from 2011 to 2015 gathered by the U.S. Census Bureaus American Community Survey along with data from the Federal Election Assistance Commission.
Los Angeles County whose more than 10 million people make it the nations most populous county had 12 more registered voters than live ones thats some 707475 votes.
Beyond the official data that it received Judicial Watch reports that L.A. County employees informed us that the total number of registered voters now stands at a number that is a whopping 144 of the total number of resident citizens of voting age."
But Californias San Diego County earns the enchilada grande. Its 138 registration translates into 810966 ghost voters.
Thats a huge number of possible votes in an election.
In smaller elections voter fraud could easily turn elections. A hundred votes here a hundred votes there and things could be very different.
As a Wikipedia list of close elections shows since just 2000 there have been literally dozens of elections at the State Local & Federal level decided by 100 votes or fewer. And in at least two nationally important elections in recent memory the outcome was decided by a paper-thin margin:
- In 2000 President Bush beat environmental activist and former Vice President Al Gore by just 538 votes.
- And Sen. Al Franken the ormer Minnesota Democrat won his seat by beating incumbent Sen. Norm Coleman in 2008. Coleman was initially declared the winner the day after the election with a 726-vote lead over Franken but after a controversial series of recounts and ballot disqualifications Franken emerged weeks later with a 225-seat victory.
Perhaps these facts will encourage Democrats to join the GOP-dominated effort to remove ineligible felons ex-residents non-citizens and dead people from the voter rolls for all contests not just presidential races says Murdock.
State by state this is an enormous problem that needs to be dealt with seriously. Having so many bogus voters out there is a temptation to voter fraud.
Nothing really hinges on it of course except the integrity and honesty of our democratic elections.
