Republicans Push Crackdown on Crime Wave That Doesn’t Exist: Voter Fraud

[BidenPresident]

Election fraud is exceedingly rare and often accidental. Still, G.O.P. lawmakers and prosecutors are promoting tough new enforcement efforts.

The Florida Legislature last week created a law enforcement agency — informally called the election police — to tackle what Gov. Ron DeSantis and other Republicans have declared an urgent problem: the roughly 0.000677 percent of voters suspected of committing voter fraud.

In Georgia, Republicans in the House passed a law on Tuesday handing new powers to police personnel who investigate allegations of election-related crimes.

And in Texas, the Republican attorney general already has created an “election integrity unit” charged solely with investigating illegal voting.

Voter fraud is exceedingly rare — and often accidental.

Voter fraud was almost non-existent before. Now the Reds are automating it. They are using their power to stop select qualified voters from exercising their right to vote. They are claiming elections that were proven honest, are not. If they get their way, they won't be in November.
