Asked and answered

Every time Republicans want to preserve election integrity, Democrats – when members of the GOP aren’t present – say there is no need to preserve election integrity because there is no evidence of voter fraud.

CNN reporter Jim Acosta responded to President Donald Trump’s recent mention of it during a White House press briefing by asking, “You’ve been talking about voter fraud since the beginning of this administration and where is the evidence of it?”

“I think there’s a lot of evidence,” the president responded, “but we’ll provide you with some, OK?”

The president’s re-election campaign quickly produced some recent examples, noting nine people charged in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas with “vote harvesting” and mail ballots, a political operative in New York stealing and submitting absentee ballots, and a resident in Pennsylvania receiving seven separate ballots in the mail.
