Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach (R) said Wednesday that he advised President Donald Trump to pursue an investigation into his unsubstantiated claims of massive election fraud and played a role in writing executive orders on immigration policy.
Ive advised him on the issue of voter fraud in multiple forms, Kobach said as quoted by the Wichita Eagle. Im not the only one, but hes been very interested in finding ways to reduce voter fraud.
Kobach said that Trump "is interested in investigating the issue on a national scale," but also wants to see "specific investigations" by the Justice Department in cases with "real serious, specific evidence."
He cited the Bush administration's voter fraud crackdown, which found "virtually no evidence" of any such organized activities according to a 2007 report by the New York Times. Kobach worked in the Department of Justice during the first term of President George W. Bush's administration.

Russian hackers have been accused on the national level with interfering with the U.S. presidential election by getting into the Democratic National Committees website as well as that of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in Washington.
While no one can prove beyond doubt that Russians also were involved in the local hack job, two hackers left calling cards with Russian email addresses on the local websites in an apparent gesture of contempt or braggadocio, Ginnebaugh said. Green Bay police were notified and have forwarded information to the FBI, she said.
Ginnebaugh said she was stunned when a computer security consultant told her that Russians may have been involved.
