    The fact that those are the only two words in my post that you chose to respond to seems to indicate it pretty clearly, as do most of your posts here. But ok, we'll assume that you're NOT a Democrat. Do you have anything to say about the substance of my post?

    Jaw-Dropping Study Claims Large Numbers of Non-Citizens Vote in U.S.


    This study’s claim is pretty eye-opening… Our data comes from the Cooperative Congressional Election Study (CCES). Its large number of observations (32,800 in 2008 and 55,400 in 2010) provide sufficient samples of the non-immigrant sub-population, with 339 non-citizen respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010. For the 2008 CCES, we also attempted to match respondents to voter files so that we could verify whether they actually voted. How many non-citizens participate in U.S. elections? More than 14 percent of non-citizens in both the 2008 and 2010 samples indicated that they were registered to vote. Furthermore, some of these non-citizens voted. Our best guess, based upon extrapolations from the portion of the sample with a verified vote, is that 6.4 percent of non-citizens voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent of non-citizens voted in 2010.

    Your point is that since there are people getting caught for voter registration fraud, absentee ballot fraud, signatures on petition fraud, etc. then there must be actual voter fraud occurring. Basically, where there's smoke there's fire.

    Perhaps. But how much influence on an election can a person that votes twice have on the outcome? Not much. It's not easy to vote twice, if only for the time involved. As a strategy for winning an election it is seriously flawed. I doubt there is a coordinated effort by Democrats to have mass numbers of people vote twice. Rigging the voting machines would be far more effective but, again, photo voter ID laws would not address that problem.

    The article that Carpro posted about illegal immigrants voting is much more problematic. Those people were registered voters! So this was voter registration fraud and and actual voter fraud. And I could believe there could be a coordinated effort to accomplish this by Democrats.
