AT: There hasn’t been too much in the way of contested elections based on claims of voter fraud in the Trump era, but hotly contested Texas is an exception.
Here is James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas video:
In Travis County, which includes Austin, Texas, home of the famous drunk leftwing D.A., and the phony charges against Gov. Rick Perry that followed from it from 2013, we see an undercover video of two poll workers stating plainly to a Project Veritas female investigator, posing as a girlfriend of a DACA recipient, asking if he can vote because he’s registered, and being told that DACA recipients vote all the time and not having citizenship to vote is not a problem.
According to the Daily Signal:
Project Veritas’ undercover journalist, posing as the girlfriend of a potential DACA voter, visited a polling station in Travis County, Texas to ask election officials if he could vote.
“If he has his ID that’s all he needs. If he’s registered,” an election worker told the undercover journalist.
“Right. It doesn’t matter that he’s not a citizen?” the PV journalist replied, adding that she had heard on the internet that he could not vote.
“No, Don’t pay any attention to that. Bring him up here,” the official said.
Another woman, who appeared to be an election official, said that there was not an issue with DACA recipients voting, saying, “we got a lot of ’em.”
“You’ve got a lot of them?” the journalist asked.
“Mmhmm,” the woman replied. “From early voter. We’ve got tons of them. Tons of DACA voters. Okay.”
They both seemed as though they were trying to be nice, yet they both displayed a remarkable ignorance about the importance of citizen-only voting. Maybe they were just ignorant and didn’t know what DACA was, as the lefty tech hipsters of Wired argued, though it’s hard to think they’d end up as poll workers with that kind of ignorance. more here
Sorry, but I am not seeing this one. She keeps saying, “If he is registered and has an ID, he can vote. Not her job to determine citizenship. Much better than Pennsylvania where they can’t even ask for an ID. The illegal could pretend to be anyone here in PA.
Prosecute.
Not her job to determine citizenship. ??? Then whose job is it???
Hopefully, Jeff “Henry Gibson” Sessions’ replacement will be prosecuting these violations.
It’s the job of whoever is doing the registration. Not the poll worker, unless it’s same-day-registration. In most States, that is. In the state of confusion known as Austin, who knows??
Exactly Burner. I love O’Keefe, but this is not ground breaking.
The “girlfriend” mentioned several times that “prospective voter” is not a citizen. It is the poll workers’ job to say non-citizens can’t vote.
In Leon County Florida, the driver license is scanned and verified before a ballot is received.
Many states are doing the no ID required voting. That’s how New Hampshire was flipped.
