    There's a reason the democrats cry foul over paper ballots and Voter ID
    laws.Because they anticipate their normal activities of Illegal voter
    registrations.Like how Virginia's Terry McAuliffe has proven.
    Congressman Allen West was robbed of his Florida seat by outright
    Vote tampering by a highly bias Democrat Election board.
    Tea Party candidate and Black Colonel,West outraised his opponent
    { Patrick Murphy { 5 to 1 }. and was ahead most election night by
    around 3-4,ooo votes.Then in 10-16 minute span of time he ended up
    down a couple thousand.We found out that a computer glitch occurred
    and dismissed many ballots.West was down by 2,500 votes
    with 99 % of Precincts { Florida 18th District } reporting.
    The Dems who ran that county had it in for West as he openly
    said of neighbor Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz
    as " vile ... not a lady ". Which in hindsight proved spot-on.
    Wasserman Schultz forced to Resign as DNC chair due to
    suspicious activity { leaked E-mails revealing her huge bias
    for Hillary Clinton }.She is currently under Investigation for
    much greater suspicious activity.
    Like the death of Seth Rich who Wesserman Schultz used her
    authority to bury his Murder case.Maybe because her brother
    Steven Wasserman was a Asst.U.S. Atorney for the district of
    Columbia.Seth Rich was murdered,many say due to his peddling
    of Info to WikiLeaks.Probably involving the shady dealings of
    Little Debbie { Not a Lady } Wasserman Schultz.

    Pol how many country's allow No Voter Identifcation when they
    go to vote.Just show up and sign a name.

    The only people who still even try and claim that it is a "phony narrative" are Trump and his most devoted followers.

    The congress, the media, and nearly every major intelligence agency on the planet have stated otherwise.

    Moreover, we have a lot of documentary evidence of Russian meddling.

    Your claim is idiotic and false. Which is all you Trumpsters have left. Idiotic and false.

    Actually, in most modern countries, there is no such thing as voter registration.

    If you were born there, are registered with any government agency or program (including the national health or public education) you're automatically registered once you reach voting age.

    We could adopt a modern system like that. And have universal standardized national voter ID.

    But the GOP would never support it.

    Have the Democrats accused the DNC of meddling in Bernie Sanders' campaign?

    Sounds like a lot of Coulda,Shoulda,Woulda to me.
    President Trump won fair and square.Hillary had more
    of the Popular votes based entirely on her Taking California
    and also All Califiornia's Electoral votes.
    Hillary had way over 4 Million more votes in California than Trump.
    So Hillary should not dare and complain about Electoral votes.
    She got all California's 55 electoral votes.
    What else ya got Bub.?

    You are correct; that was an overstatement. Clearly there were many Americans who were not tired of Barack's incompetence as president and his endless bad mouthing of our nation and his endless race agitating.

    Why do I have to show an ID to board an airplane? Doesn't that disenfranchise people who have a right to fly? Seems like it is just to "purify" some feeling of safety.

    In Crawford v. Marion County Election Board (2007), the Supreme Court upheld an Indiana state law that required all voters to present a photo ID. The majority opinion found that the burden placed on voters was "offset by the benefit of reducing the risk of fraud" and that the law was "eminently reasonable."

    This is all part of a Movement.To effectively dumb down the
    masses.It's been in the works ever since the Liberals took over
    at Columbia U. with their Frankfort School methods.
    Resulting in the Radicals of the 60's and Anti-war demonstrations
    in Chicago at their '68 DNC convention,then later at Kent State.
    It was considered a Counterculture back then.
    Today it's not even that.It's super radical and In Your Face.
    Making No sense.At least Vietnam protestors could approach
    President Nixon and legitimately engage valid concerns.
    Todays protests are for the sheer joy of being unhinged and
    seen more as if Hitler's Storm Troopers.Therefore using true
    Fascist tactics while pleading they are against Fascism.
    It's changing language { Political Correctness } in order
    to stifle debate while allowing Lies and Groupthink.
    Like in Global Warming.They lost that debate so they merely
    changed it to - Climate Change -.
    This country is still a far majority or average Joe's and Patriots.
    Those who work,pay taxes and are concerned about Illegals,
    over taxation { The Tea Party } and now being unfairly represented.
    Plus the constant hysterics and lies perpertrated by a lapdog
    MSM. Resulting in Trump as a sort of American Superman.
    Battling unfairness and keeping this country on the right path.
    As Dennis Prager said ... He may disagree with some of how
    Trump talks but one thing he is certain of.That Trump Loves this
    Country and would never sell it out.That Trump would never even
    think of such a thing.

    Being a little harsh aren't you? Still waiting for any proof that any votes were changes because of the Russians, Chinese, or dirty campaign ads put out by either party.
    The reality is, if the democrat party loses any election, it must have been rigged. All democrats believe that except for this guy,

    As if his very own words count for anything.Count for squat,maybe.
    Is so enthralled by hearing and having his lapdog MSM adore his
    every word,it's like living in some far away land under some mythical
    Emporer where there is no need for clothes.Kinda like Tahiti if the
    only drink they had available was the Liberals Kool-Aid.
    But then Thomas Jefferson was a Liberal.Today's liberal is
    no Thomas Jefferson.They are closer to a ballsy authoritarian
    like Nikita Khrushchev.Who Jack Kennedy even had to admit
    beat him up in Vienna.

    Exactly what is "election meddling"?

    one example of election meddling is actively and passively importing tens of millions of third worlders.

    another example of election meddling is preselecting a presidential candidate then secretly funneling the lionshare of the party's national committee donations to their campaign.

    another example is a US presidential campaign funneling money to people to make up lies about their opponent, and then submit those lies to co-conspirators in the FBI, who will then submit them to co-conspirators on the FISA court to obtain federal warrants to spy on their opponent's campaign.

    And, as has been proven so many times, the "risk of fraud" is negligible. Leaving nothing to "reduce"

    For example: http://www.brennancenter.org/sites/default/files/legacy/The Truth About Voter Fraud.pdf

    Election meddling is what every country tries to do in every other country's elections. The most experienced and successful at it is the USA, though sometimes we have had to resort to assassination or bombing to be successful.

    Another definition of election meddling is the excuse why a candidate lost. If you run for office, and you lose, that is per se proof there was election meddling since certainly you were the superior candidate.

    No it hasn't.

    The study is a diversion from real election fraud. MOST occurs within the poll itself by poll workers, not by ineligible voters voting.

    I was an election judge in two Democrat Primary elections. I could have cast as many votes as I wanted to - 10, 100, 1000 votes or more - as fast as I could run ballots thru the machines. NOTHING could stop it with NO possibility of being caught. I had the books and knew who had not voted who was registered. EVERYONE who did not vote was a vote I could cast - and nothing to prove what happened even possible. I could stand an a machine running ballots thru as fast as literally possible - and to go faster I could go from machine to machine. Or have others also doing so.

    This would be easy enough to stop - just require every voter put their finger print on the voter registration book. This would stop election fraud within the polls - and would make prosecuting ineligible voters simplistic too. NO ONE promotes that - absolutely no one. For obvious reasons. Nor do you, do you?

    HOWEVER, neither political party wants this. The majority party controls the polls and the majority party wants to therefore control the elections. Whoever controls the polling places themselves can cast as many votes as they want to - limited only by their own ethics - and many people so partisan they will work in a polling place are their candidates winning as their highest ethic - whatever it takes.

    Essentially ALL discussion of voter fraud 100% ignores where 99% of it happens, which is within the polls and election divisions themselves. No one wants to discuss that because they don't want it stopped.

    Exactly what is "election meddling"?

    The purposeful manipulation by foreign entity in the election process or properties to favor one candidate over another or damage one candidates chances of victory.

    If done so by domestic entity it is called a campaign.

    "Election meddling" by foreign governments is called "reality."
