Sen. Durbin is from IL
And we’re proud of him. And Tammy.
They are absolutely correct, the “Kobach Maneuver” is a lie based on a fraudulent premise…
However, this has all the impact of a fart in the wind…
Noticed that. But Can we have him please?
(Not suggesting a trade: no one wants Grassley or whatsherface)
Have they looked into bears committing voter fraud?
Too busy arming them.
Only the armed ones.
But hidden in here is the other part of it: the kinds of fraud that happen are almost never the kinds that would be caught by the laws being enacted. Try, say, imposing identity verification for absentee voting…
Ashcroft much stupider than his father John. I don’t trust him to run PTA President’s election let alone the whole state of Missouri.
What brings a slight smile to my face is that Republicans now have a very week history of trying to govern, with very few positive accomplishments to show for their efforts, and now they are being held accountable for their past lies and rhetoric and failures to represent the interests of their constituents. When presented with irrefutable facts against their past claims, they are left speechless.
KKKobach was gutted like a trout and these dipshits carry on like their base doesn’t follow actual news.
Hang on a sec…thinking…
Oh yeah, I see the fallacy in my argument now.
Carry on.
Apparently this guy failed to read the admonishment that the court sent to Kobach et al in his latest and hopefully last attempt to use citizenship as a way to decrease the turn-out and the rest of the report that shuts down all the other claims that were made during that legal hearing. https://www.propublica.org/article/kris-kobach-voter-fraud-kansas-trial?utm_source=pardot&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=dailynewsletter
Now let’s get this straight, Sec.of State Jay Ashcroft says the “there were no unlawful corruption of votes or vote totals.” But the he goes on to say. “The evidence indicates that voter fraud is an exponentially greater threat than hacking.”
This guy must have gone to Trump University and majored in “The Art of the Big Lie” because his comments make absolutely no sense.
Thank you Senator Durbin for calling out the lie! Will these Repuglican lies never cease?
TPM reporters count on us knowing who’s from where.
For many major newspapers, as we’ve seen, the head would be:
“Ashcroft says: Evidence indicates that voter fraud is an exponentially greater threat than hacking.”
Then, buried in the middle of the story somewhere:
“there were no unlawful corruption of votes or vote totals.”
Am I the only one who sees “hacking” as a form of voter fraud? and that is guy is parsing it out because it’s not about voting by those others…
Typical Goober who never read any independent reports on voter fraud. I have. There is virtually none. And by virtually none, I mean 9 people in one year out of 28 million in Texas.
GOP, gullible old people. Keep repeating the falsehood and they’ll keep believing it. No integrity. Sad.
The two in TX that I heard about were Republican voters. Hispanic, as it happened.
I scanned the whole comment thread, but I haven’t seen anybody mention that Jay Ashcroft is former US Att’y General John Ashcroft’s son. 'Splains things a bit.
Also, if someone mentioned it, and I missed it, sorry!
