Dec 2016

There are many people on the voting roles who have died or moved. Some are Democrats, some are Republicans and some are independents. At several points in my life I was one of them as I moved state to state and from one voting precinct to another.

Again, you haven't shred of proof that mistakes made because of this program caused Hillary to lose the election. Normally people who are improperly removed from the voting roles can vote on a provisional ballots and if they were denied that right in massive numbers we would have heard about it by now.

Now quit your conspiracy theory BS!

And by the way: Please note one of your articles is entitled: "Trump Adviser Kris Kobach Harassed Kansas Voters in his Failed Quest for Mass Election Fraud." And by the way these are the vote totals for Kansas:

Donald J. Trump Republican 656,009 57.2%
Hillary Clinton Democrat 414,788 36.2

Hillary lost by 251K votes. Republicans hardly need to commit "massive election fraud' to win Kansas.
