The vice chair of a presidential commission charged with investigating voting fraud swung back at the Democratic leader of the Senate Friday, saying it was pathetic that Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer equated the panel with white supremacists and a deadly rally earlier this month in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Its a pathetic, partisan attempt to wrap Charlottesville around every issue he can think of, said Kris Kobach, the vice chair of the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity. Its complete nonsense.
On Thursday, Schumer, a Democrat from New York, posted a piece on Medium.com calling for President Donald Trump to disband the commission. He also said if Trump failed to do so, Congress should consider attaching riders to must-pass legislation in September that would prohibit the panels operation.
If the president wants to truly show that he rejects the discrimination agenda of the white supremacist movement, he will rescind the Executive Order that created this commission, he wrote. He also called on Kobach, a Republican who is running for governor in Kansas, to testify in a series of public hearings on the status of voting rights. Kobach took issue with Schumers claim that the commissions intent was to intimidate voters and purge them from the rolls through a national voter database.
