Subject: BS: Voter fraud

"The discovery that more than 6,000 people used out-of-state driver's licenses to vote in New Hampshire last November bolsters Donald Trump's claim he lost the state because thousands of Massachusetts residents came in to vote.

Trump claimed in February that out-of-state voters tipped the New Hampshire election, both against him and incumbent Republican Sen. Kelly Ayotte. The Boston Globe at the time dismissed his allegation as "groundless."

But the vast majority of the 6,000 voters have neither obtained an in-state license nor registered a motor vehicle since the November vote, according to an inquiry by Republican Speaker of the New Hampshire House Shawn Jasper, the Washington Times reported.

Hillary Clinton defeated Trump in New Hampshire by 2,736 votes while Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan defeated Ayotte by 1,017 votes.

The records from the Department of State, which oversees elections, and the Department of Safety show 6,540 people voted using out-of-state licenses. But as of Aug. 30, only 1014, about 15 percent, had been issued New Hampshire driver's licenses.

On Nov. 8, 2016, 6,540 voters used an out-of-state driver's license as identification to vote but as of Aug. 30, 2017, only 1,014 of those individuals – 15.5 percent – had been issued a New Hampshire driver's license, according to the data.

(For more information on this and other neighborhood stories, subscribe to Concord NH Patch to receive daily newsletters and breaking news alerts.)


Of the remaining 5,526 individuals, only 3.3 percent – about 213 people – had a registered motor vehicle.


That would leave 5,313 people who used an out-of-state license to vote but never obtained a new New Hampshire license despite being required to by state law after implying that they were establishing residency or domicile in the state to vote in November.

Of the 5,313 individuals who registered to vote same-day on Election Day, 81 percent – 4,314 people – neither held a New Hampshire driver's license nor had a registered vehicle in the state ever.

With the exception of the gubernatorial race – where Republican Chris Sununu easily bested Democrat Colin Van Ostern by more than 16,000 votes – Democrats won all the other statewide and Congressional races.

But three races were determined by less than 5,000 votes: Gov. Maggie Hassan, a Democrat, beat incumbent U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte by 1,017 votes – although many have suspected that last minute, illegal campaign mailers pushing votes to independent Aaron Day cost Ayotte the race. Hillary Clinton bested Donald Trump by 2,736, earning the state's 4 Electoral College votes even though she ultimately lost the presidency. U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter was sent back to Congress after she bested incumbent U.S. Rep. Frank Guinta by a few more than 4,900 votes.

My comment on this- it seems that there was fraud, and that those who insisted in earlier closed threads that there was none have been putting their heads in the sand. How can we determine if there is fraud if the investigation of it is blocked by those who benefited the most from it?

No reason to clean up the voting rolls?

Preliminary cross state voter info shows 7.2 million duplicate registrations in 28 states; 40K voters are registered in both Mass. and NH.

https://patch.com/new-hampshire/concord-nh/nearly-95k-voters-nh-registered-other-states-data


Again, twice the number that the Clinton campaign claims to have "won" the popular vote by.... So half of them may be actual mistakes and not fraud by the Democrats.


Before you blow it off and attack me, how will you feel about the next election when the Republicans control the DOJ and who is targeted? Are you OK with Trump doing to you what Obama did to the rest of us?

Maybe we need to look at the facts and determine a method for FAIR and honest voting?

J. Christian Adams, who worked in the Justice Department's Voting Rights Section under President George W. Bush and now heads the nonprofit Public Interest Law Foundation, obtained voter-registration records from eight of Virginia's 133 cities and counties, discovering 1,046 illegal aliens were illegally registered to vote. He's also forced several counties to clean up their voter rolls in states such as Mississippi and Texas.

John Fund, author of several books on election fraud, told WND in March the Obama administration created an environment for vote fraud to thrive.

"When it comes to illegal votes," he said, "we need to end the Obama administration's consistent refusal to cooperate with states on allowing access to records of legal foreigners, illegal aliens and the Justice Department's refusal to require states to maintain clear voter lists if they accept federal funds for voting purposes.

Catherine Engelbrecht, founder of the Houston, Texas-based vote-monitoring nonprofit True the Vote, told WND "no one knows how many noncitizens are voting, because under the Obama administration, attempts to find answers were blocked at every turn."

She noted states that attempted to pass voter ID legislation or ask for proof of citizenship were sued by the DOJ.

The ODU professors, who stand by their work in the face of attacks from the left, concluded that in 2008 as few as 38,000 and as many as 2.8 million noncitizens voted.

Mr. Agresti's analysis of the same polling data settled on much higher numbers. He estimated that as many as 7.9 million noncitizens were illegally registered that year and 594,000 to 5.7 million voted.


For 2012, Just Facts said, 3.2 million to 5.6 million noncitizens were registered to vote and 1.2 million to 3.6 million of them voted.

Stu,

Perhaps you would care to address the facts that these article present, instead of making a personal attack.

Unless your post is representing your view of your own self, which you are entitled to present here. THAT would be acceptable.






The Public Interest Legal Foundation, which fights voter fraud, released one of its most comprehensive reports last month.

Its investigation found that Virginia removed more than 5,500 noncitizens from voter lists, including 1,852 people who had cast more than 7,000 ballots. The people volunteered their status, most likely when acquiring driver's licenses. The Public Interest Legal Foundation said there are likely many more illegal voters on Virginia's rolls who have never admitted to being noncitizens.

One-third of precincts in Wayne County could be disqualified from an unprecedented statewide recount of presidential election results because of problems with ballots.

Michigan's largest county voted overwhelmingly for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, but officials couldn't reconcile vote totals for 610 of 1,680 precincts during a countywide canvass of vote results late last month.

Most of those are in heavily Democratic Detroit, where the number of ballots in precinct poll books did not match those of voting machine printout reports in 59 percent of precincts, 392 of 662.



Jim,

If there is outside interference, we SHOULD have a new election. So lets go back to 2008 when so many in Europe were supporting Obama, and start there.

Or is foreign interference OK when the result is what YOU want it to be?

"Of course there is no proof of that.

And the proof that even one vote was altered by the Russian efforts?

Hilary's known Russian connections for money have no value in being investigated, even though she was a US Government official at the time ( as opposed to Trump, who was a private individual?)

But before we can rerun the election, we need to correct the flaws that made this one suspect.

"In a companion letter from both Secretary of State Bill Gardner and Department of Safety Commissioner John Barthelmes to Jasper, they noted that "some unknown number" of the individuals moved out of New Hampshire and it was possible that a few may never have driven in the state or ceased driving in the state. They also noted the biggest problem with attempting to limit voter participation to people who actually live in New Hampshire – a 2015 state Supreme Court decision – Annamarie Gaure vs. state of New Hampshire – which preserved a domicile loophole for voting (despite a federal law that requires residency for federal elections).

The letter noted that the Secretary of State's Office prepared nearly 12,000 30-day letters to voters where they had "credible information" that the voters no longer lived – or never lived – in the address provided. As a result of the mailing, 11,320 voters were removed from the checklists, the letter stated. Neither Gardner nor Barthelmes explained what information led nearly 12,000 voters to be removed from the checklists but the shear number, and the fact that New Hampshire is not a very transient state, shows a lot more than 5,000 fraudulent votes could have been cast in November. The letter also stated that only 622 were either verified as still domiciled in the city or town or remained under review. "

Two things here:
1) I'm not going to get involved in a back-and-forth wit Mr "Copy/paste". You can play with Don & the Brits. (Good band name?)
2) I live here

Some people have claimed people were bussed in. If it happened in my town, the bus wouldn't fit in the parking lot where the voting happened, Maybe a bigger city?

Durham. In 2015, the number of students enrolled was 15,398. That doesn't mean they came from out-of-state. Most probably weren't (opinion).
The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (that's Portsmouth NH) is technically in Kittery Maine. Maine charges them income tax, no matter where they live. (Last I heard, anyway - maybe something's changed)
We have YUGE borders with VT, MA, and ME.
When I registered to vote here, I had a Texas driver's license, was a legal resident of New York, and registered to vote with the street address on an AF base of the dorm I was living in, which I suspect may have not been kosher, but it was where I lived, and I knew I'd come back here.

I don't have a problem with these from-away voters being investigated, but starting out calling it "fraud" when YOU don't know either is really stupid...plus, it makes you look like you're a little desperate for excuses. Newsflash: Trump won the election, and 5,000 ≠ 3,000,000 votes.

Jeri,

Sorry about the cut and paste, but when I state my opinions, I am insulted for even having them, and required to present the "FACTS" that I am basing them on ( Only me- the other side has no such requirement.)
As a minority here, I should expect to get the short end of the stick, sit in the back of the bus, and get lynched for my opinions. But I had some hope that there are a few honest liberals, who should look at the facts I present and discuss them.

Your points are valid- AND SHOULD BE LOOKED AT. As should the accusations of fraud that are thrown away here. IF the Trump administration acts the way the Obama one did, I hope to be able to say the the liberals here were at least willing to apply the same standards to others that they demand be applied to themselves-
- BUT I DOUBT IT.


As for the 5000 not being 3,000,000

"The ODU professors, who stand by their work in the face of attacks from the left, concluded that in 2008 as few as 38,000 and as many as 2.8 million noncitizens voted.

America is a land of laws.
Sometimes the intention of a law fails and causes great suffering.

For example only American flag vessels may deliver gasoline to American ports but there are not any available due to all the ships having foreign flags because of tax breaks, so Florida can not legally get gasoline.

Same with election laws.

The intention of the electoral college laws was to insure a (sic) lout, clod or common creep would never be allowed to become President.

For political party loophole reasons the law could do the opposite of its intention.

Besides the population lost patience when it came time to change the law.

Sir Thomas More.... not up on all my saints...


So, Donuel,

I will join you in voting out of office those Congress-critters that presently are in office.

"The LAW is that the winner of the Electoral College vote wins the election."
The law of Nazi Germany said it was permissible to send Jews to the gas chambers and medically experiment on them
There are good laws and bad laws - to accept the bad ones without opposition is fascism by definition - the superiority of the state

And we fought a war to change the Nazi law, didn't we?

If you don't like the law, work to change it- but don't use it when it gives results you like, and object to it when it does not. If the law that elected Trump was the same law the elected Obama, you are not being sane in objecting to one and demand everyone accept the other.

"And we fought a war to change the Nazi law, didn't we? "
So it's up to you to fight a system that puts megolos like Trump into the White House
When your house is on fire you don't rush to chand the batteries in your smoke dectector
Your's is blazing away at the present time
You have failed to dispute on single description of Trump I have offered so presumably you are happy with him as he is
What I said earlier - about Trumpism, not democracy (the latter of which you extremely transparent over which bits you care to defend)

I presume you are only complaining about the system because YOU DID NOT GET THE RESULTS YOU WANTED. If ANYONE had suggested a change to the laws before say 2008 or BEFORE the 2016 election, the Liberals would have been the first and loudest to scream.

Trump was elected- he is as LEGAL a president as Obama was. Calling into question his legality brings up a lot more than anyone here wants to consider.

If you don't like his POLICIES, elect people that agree with you. 2010, 2012, 2014 and 2016 elections have shown that the pendulum has swung back from the overly liberal side.

The important thing is what we AGREED about earlier- a need to ensure that the election is FAIR and NOT RIGGED to give advantage TO EITHER SIDE.

If you have a problem with that, I can tell you where to stuff it.

"I presume you are only complaining about the system because YOU DID NOT GET THE RESULTS YOU WANTED"
I've answered that
you presume wrong
I have no interest in internal American politics
What concerns me is that you have cvoted a madman into the White House and that has international repercussions
I've always believed America to be an undemocratic state which interferes in interference in other countries affairs to the extent of mass murder
Up to now, it has done so behind a pretence of democracy, now that has been discarded and your contitution is being undermined by the man in charge.
" a need to ensure that the election is FAIR and NOT RIGGED"
It wass rigged when Russia began to interfere in the voting - way before the elsction
I see no complaint about that for you - why should there be
You appear to support this inarticulate red-neck

Jim it tickles me how much you love to argue for arguments sake.
You could be the movie character who would drop dead if his blood pressure ever dropped below 70 so he constantly argues and avoids sleep. At the end of the movie he learns he could just eat sticky buns and egg yolks to keep his blood pressure elevated.

Fake news like IRS and Lois Lerner or Voter fraud are stories so ludicrous and false they are said to 'gain traction' over months and years.

Political spin that gains traction is said to be true. It isn't.

I argue to attempt people like Bruce to say what they really mean - and to learn, of course.
Seems to have worked quite well here
He started out about election fraud - it turned out to be a Trumpite Political Broadcast devoid of any concern for democracy
Worth getting out of bed on any morning for, in my book
Sometimes you remind me of a little Jiminy Cricket sitting on people's shoulders and whispering sweet nothings and sitting squarely on any fence in the vicinity
Which is a pity because I find myself agreeing with you most of the time - when you are not being obscurantist
Is there anything I have said here which you would actually like to challenge or would you rather just throw stones from a safe distance?

No, I like all your observations. I even play a little fiddle like Jiminy Cricket. As for stone throwing I am so far behind the fence I wouldn't reach the fence. All year this cricket just followed his fancy or laid about just bidding time while the ants labored and did real work. When the first day of winter came the shivering cricket asked an ant for shelter in the warm ant tunnels and if he could have some food the ants had farmed all year in the form of fungus. Hell No! you foolish Cricket, you wasted all your time playing, said the ant. The cricket ate the ant.

Challenging each other is like daring each of us to grow. Its a damn sight better than getting eaten.

The overall error rate of DNA polymerase in the replisome is 10-8 errors per base pair. Repair enzymes fix 99% of these lesions for an overall error rate of 10-10 per bp. That means one mutation in every 10 billion base pairs that are replicated.

Such a infinitesimal error rate is what ensures that you are still you after old cells die and new cells are born.

The error/fraud rate of US voting is comparable to DNA replication.

To claim otherwise flies in the face of life itself.

HOWEVER this does not mean that the vote can not be corrupted.
In the words of Vladimir Putin "It is not who votes that determines an election, it is who counts the votes".

We have compared an election process to DNA replication errors and error corrections. To carry this comparison a step beyond the obvious there are implications of our digital internet age mimicking life processes like viruses to our DNA that will amaze some of you.

Russian intel officers understand this, which means you can too.
In your own DNA you have dna sequences that sneak into your chromosomes. These intruders also snuck into all your ancestors and passed on these intruders by replication.
These DNA segments arrived millions of years ago and can be good or bad.
They break in by hitching a ride on a virus. One they break in, they will be replicated as long as life goes on.
These intruders are called transposesomes. Surprisingly half of your personal DNA is made of transposesomes! Some scientists used to call this DNA, junk DNA.

We as a species do not know for sure where these transposesomes came from. When we compare these processes to elections we do know where these alien transposesome fake news stories come from.

We also know which Republican think tanks devised ways of disposing of votes from black people, college students and the elderly.
It was called voter fraud.
