"To substantiate this statement, I must first explain that while certain paid political operatives may try to commit fraud in counting votes, it is rare/almost nonexistent that actual voters attempt fraud. In numerous investigations, nothing material ever shows up. The full wealth and might of the Asset Strippers (the Oligarchs in waiting) is behind efforts to find Voter Fraud because to prove a pattern of fraud would massively help their goal of suppressing the vote. The fact this even has to be discussed is evidence of the haplessness of the media in general and the institutionalized and intentional dishonesty inherent within Fox News and other Billionaire run media outlets. Let me allow the Brennan Center for Justice to explain why voter fraud is insignificant."

As for the rest of.your comment, you are absolutely correct. The search.for.individual voter.fraud is absolutely linked with voter suppression.

(16,371 posts)Voter fraud, meaning someone manages to impersonate another voter or to vote in more than one place, is vanishingly rare.
Election fraud is a rigged or stolen election carried out by election insiders or outsiders. Election fraud occurs when votes are counted and tallied to change the result contrary to the will of the voter's.
