The Voter Fraud That ‘Never Happens’ Keeps Coming Back - By John Fund - The Corner - National Review Online

The Voter Fraud That ‘Never Happens’ Keeps Coming Back - By John Fund - The Corner - National Review Online: Critics of voter ID and other laws cracking down on voter fraud claim they’re unnecessary because fraud is nonexistent. For instance, Brennan Center attorneys Michael Waldman and Justin Levitt claimed last year: “A person casting two votes risks jail time and a fine for minimal gain. Proven voter fraud, statistically, happens about as often as death by lightning strike.”

Democrat Melowese Richardson has been an official poll worker for the last quarter century and registered thousands of people to vote last year. She candidly admitted to Cincinnati’s Channel 9 this week that she voted twice in the last election.
