"There's no such thing as voter fraud! You're Crazy!"

Oh am I?! Liberals off all ages have been feeding me that stupid line, or a variation of it, for at least the last four years now. Liberals tell me that because I support voter ID laws, I support Republicans in cheating to win an election. Oh the irony!

I'm the one trying to cheat to win an election?! Really?! How about we all talk to Democrat Melowese Richardson of Cincinnati, Ohio, who has been an official poll worker for the last 25 years. According to the story which I have linked to for you, Richardson has herself admitted that she voted TWICE for Obama in November. She is also facing other charges for her election day actions. And if that wasn't enough her granddaughter, India Richardson, also cast two ballots in November, presumably also for Obama. And to top it all off, she thinks what she did was totally okay!

What Richardson says she did, what she says is okay, I've actually heard a variation on before. Here on campus, I heard two girls my age discussing how they sent absentee ballots back to their home districts and then used a system we have called TerpVote to change their voter registration to their campus address so they could vote on campus! One even said, "Maybe I'll get to vote twice because of this." In these girls' situation where there was a change in address processed, I'd like to think the state board of elections caught it but it doesn't sound like it was caught out in Cincinnati. But I'm really very silly in all this, aren't I? There's no voter fraud at all. I and everyone else who want voter ID laws are just crazy nut jobs.

"There's really no voter fraud," they said. "How can someone vote twice?" they said. "You're not really concerned about voter fraud, you're just trying to disenfranchise minorities so your people win an election," they said. Yes, there is rampant voter fraud and there always has been, it's just very difficult to prove. But the story this post revolved around is a start. And thanks to groups like Project Veritas and other watchdog groups, we have an ever growing pile of video evidence of voter fraud. But it's videos like those that undermine the liberal narrative of the alphabet networks, so they never report on those kinds of stories.

It's INCREDIBLY easy to vote twice when your election officials don't ask you for an ID or your voter registration card when you go to the polls. I've voted twice in my life now for the primary and general elections in 2012 and I have yet to be asked for an ID or my voter card, which I thought all first time voters had to present. At the primary I was asked to give DOB and address, but I'm pretty sure I wasn't even asked that much during the general election when I voted on campus. And it's EVEN EASIER when states refuse to clean dead and/or otherwise ineligible people off the voting rolls. Just look at what Florida tried to do and the backlash that resulted.

And yes, I am really concerned about voter fraud. The fact that it is mostly Democrat-favoring minorities who do not have ID cards is a pure coincidence that the media just loves to trump up. If Republicans were really trying to disenfranchise minority voters, then how come the voter ID laws that came under the heaviest fire, including those introduced in Pennsylvania and South Carolina, include provisions for those who do not have an ID to get a FREE ride to a state office where they can get their picture taken and then receive a FREE ID card? As a proponent of strict voter ID laws, all I want is a truly fair and honest election. My worst fear as a voter is what has already happened to far too many people across this country; showing up to vote and being told that I have already done so.
