Sounds to me like a partisan hack.

1. I didn't notice any mention of republican voter fraud, like has recently occured twice with them throwing out democrat voter registrations.

2. He uses numbers in a very sloppy manner. For example the comment about Philly voter registration going up even though the population has gone down. So??? He makes no case that 100% of voters were registered to start with. If that were the case then it might indicate a problem. As it is, it is just grasping at straws.

That said, I think it is good to shine a light on all voter fraud, including voting machine vulnerabilities. Maybe by so doing we will get to the point where the fraud by both parties will cease.

She makes good points (& could have easily mentioned many more examples of attempted voter fraud this election cycle: more then 80% of the Nader petitions in PA were forged, the Judge called it the worst example of attempted election fraud he'd ever seen, the allegations of trashed registration applications in AZ, OR, OH, etc., etc.)

IMO, the problem is much larger then these cases, however.

At the heart of our voter fraud problems are the greatest frauds of all, the gerrymandering on a national scale by BOTH major Parties.

THIS, (and the cowardly refusal of the Supreme Court to rein it in) are in large measure the prime reason for the polarization of the electorate today, both Parties being forced to their more extreme wings, and the incitement of 'true believers' for 'victory at any cost'....

Oh my, I didnt even realize how prevalent it is. Clinton did this country no service. I am sure the Democrats feel this is great for THEM but when we ALL lose our DEMOCRACY wonder how the average Democrat will feel THEN. jdn
