Is Voter Fraud Really an Issue?

Every American citizen, and especially new citizens, cherishes the right to vote for our elected officials, who we put in place to advocate for our interests and protect our liberties. Free and fair elections are critical to ensure that every citizen's vote is counted correctly and that our voice, through our vote, is heard. Electoral and voter fraud cancels out our vote, and illegally takes away our natural right to vote for our government.

Most Americans don't know the various types of voter fraud - impersonation at the polls, false registrations, duplicate voting, fraudulent use of absentee ballots, buying votes, illegal "assistance" at the polls, ineligible voting, altering the vote count, and ballot petition fraud. [1] That's quite a long list of ways that our voices, as American citizens, are taken away.

Voter fraud is often portrayed as a contentious or controversial topic, but is it really? Is there evidence that it exists?

According to reports, four States had election fraud so bad that the outcomes were overturned: North Carolina, Florida, New York and Missouri, and gives fifteen separate instances where elections were overturned. [2] Various methods of voter fraud were used, including absentee ballot fraud, submission of illegal mail-in ballots and not counting provisional ballots, bribing voters and "tampering with absentee ballots" as well as illegally "assisting" at the polling location. There are other cases that involved non-residents being coerced into voting illegally.

Other methods of voter fraud involve ballots being cast for people who are dead or who have moved out of the state, which is made possible by localities and states not regularly reviewing their voter rolls. Judicial Watch, a government watchdog group, successfully argued in court that Los Angeles County must remove from it's rolls "as many as 1.5 million inactive registered names that may be invalid." [3] The court agreed. Los Angeles County was found to have more people on its voter rolls than it had eligible to vote (112%), which is a situation tailor made for voter fraud.

Whether or not we see it, voter fraud affects every American negatively because it take our choice away from us, and gives that choice -and our voice- to someone else. Americans are fair-minded people and all of us know this is not just morally wrong, but illegal and bad for our country. We rightly decry voter and electoral fraud in other countries, but unfortunately we have it here as well, and it is not limited to one party or in one state. We can all help in our own ways, from volunteering to work at a polling station to educating our fellow citizens, to making sure our own local voter rolls are up to date and accurate.
