8 Of The 9/11 Hijackers Were Registered to Vote, Illegal Immigrants Swaying Elections In California
Both reasons why voter ID laws are pretty important, according to John Fund:
The potential for fraud is not trivial, as federal privacy laws prevent cross-checking voter registration rolls with immigration records. Nevertheless, a 1997 Congressional investigation found that “4,023 illegal voters possibly cast ballots in [a] disputed House election” in California. After 9/11, the Justice Department found that eight of the 19 hijackers were registered to vote.
Under pressure from liberal groups, some states have even abandoned the requirement that people check a citizenship box to be put on the voter rolls. Iowa has told local registrars they should register people even if they leave the citizenship box blank. Maryland officials wave illegal immigrants through the registration process, prompting a Justice Department letter warning they may be helping people violate federal law.
Here’s Fund talking about the issue on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
Voting for American leaders should be the sole right of citizens of the United States, but under current laws a lot of non-citizens are getting to vote. So we need to change the laws to protect our elections from people who have no right to vote.
That means voter ID’s, among other provisions. And the objections to voter ID (that a small fraction of the population can’t afford to, or be bothered to, secure an ID for themselves) is absurd. Let’s make the ID’s, and all the necessary documentation for getting them, free of charge and create one-stop destinations for voter ID’s and registration. But there’s simply no excuse to keep operating under a system that allows elections to be influenced by illegal voters. Tags: Domestic Issues, Politics
A CALIFORNIA STORY; WHAT HILLARY DOESN’T WANT YOU TO KNOW:
We (she) already taught them to fly. Now, lets teach ‘em to drive. Get ‘em out of the “shadows,” on to the streets. Leon Panetta would be the first to tell us that immigrants paved these roads. “This is a complicated issue,” says Bill Clinton. But how “complicated” is illegal? Does anybody remember that two of the 9-11 hijackers visas were renewed, six months after the attacks?
What could happen? And why does the incidence of Al Qaeda flight students, trained at the University of Bill Clinton, remain a non-issue? Einstein said, “The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.” So far, the silence is deafening: http://theseedsof9-11.com
Yeah those damn laws always seem to get into the way, pretty much a poll tax, disenfranchising voters seems as if there are a few illegals that found a way to vote.
Not only their direct vote affecting elections (illegals), but how about their numbers (demographics) being included in Census Reports which apportions the number of Representatives to a district.
Talking about disenfranchising the electorate.
POLL TAX!! VOTER SUPPRESSION!! RACISM!!!
I have just countered yours and John Funds’ stances, Rob.
Look at me!! I’m a progressive, hee hee!!
If your for illegals vote Democratic, no I mean Republican, no wait. If your an illegal alien what party would you vote for?
