Vote Fraud Commission About Removing Any & All Democrats From Roles. Even Legal Ones.

The commission is about outright ridding the state roles of Democrats even legally registered and following the law. If you are A Democrat you will have to check if you are on the list up until the last minute. All the commission is a cover to de list millions of Democrats or suspected Democratic voters en masse.

It simply will not be that hard to trash the roles of Democratic voters just before the elections. It will make the last suppression look like child's play.

Explain something to me: why is it that when the Republicans are in the minority, they often successfully obstruct the majority Democrats, but when the Democrats are in the minority they can't seem to stop the Republicans from doing anything they want?

This issue is the biggest issue of our times, yet I hear nothing about from the Democratic Party or their leaders.

it's not nearly enough.

I had been greatly heartened by Holder's anti-gerrymandering effort -- but that seems weak too, under the circumstances. I hope I'm wrong.

The work of President Trump's commission studying voter fraud and other voting problems has been stalled by the eight lawsuits filed against it, according to one commission member.

Indiana's Republican Secretary of State Connie Lawson says the suits, which seek release of all of the commission's correspondence, among other things, have had a "chilling" effect.

Meanwhile, Obama and Holder are tackling gerrymandering:
