Trump Calls for Major Voter Fraud Probe

This latest into voter fraud and Trump’s need to point out that he is number one, goes beyond his presidency, earlier this month, in a series of tweets, where he referred to himself as “the ratings machine,” Trump jabbed at Arnold Schwarzenegger, who took over the the ailing Celebrity Apprentice show.

Spicer cited recent studies ,one of which has been de-bunked, that was based on 339 respondents in 2008 and 489 in 2010, of which 14% , the vast majority of whom were later found to have been misclassified as non-citizens, were registered to vote.

Eric Trump, the President’s son, applied the de-bunked numbers to the general population, and determined that 3.2 million people would be registered to vote.

Professor Jesse Richman, of Old Dominion, who did the study with professor David Earnest, said that his research does not support claims of massive voter fraud.[xyz-ihs snippet=”Adsense-responsive”]The second study, a 2012 Pew Report, found that millions of incidences of invalid voter registrations, due to people moving to another state or dying.

The author of that study,  David Becker, executive director of the Center for Election Innovation & Research, pointed out that even though people were registered to vote in two different states because of moving, and that it found that dead people were still registered, that, he “found millions of out of date registration records due to people moving or dying, but found no evidence that voter fraud resulted,” he said. He would later add, “As I’ve noted before, voting integrity [was] better in this election than ever before. Zero evidence of fraud.”
