My name is Rosa Maria Ortega. I am a Mexican citizen who lied about being an American Citizen so I could vote in elections in 2012 and 2014, and I recently got sentenced to 8 years in prison for voter fraud.

The funny thing is the left will point to statistics of people caught for voter fraud, as proof voter fraud is inconsequential for how few there are.

But that's the thing though, those who are going to commit voter fraud are traditionally going to do so only in places with lax, or non-existent laws. Why take the risk in a state with an ID law?

Of course stupid people exist, which is why even in states with ID laws you find voter fraud. But isn't it odd that a state such as Kansas, which does have voter ID laws, and a population of under 3 million, has the most "confirmed" voter fraud cases, while a state like say...oh California, that has a population of almost 40 million, has one of the absolute lowest in the nation? That's not even comparing percentages, that's just comparing straight literal values. They had 10 reported.

That can't even be statistically accurate. 10...literally not believable.

Also interesting, want to know one of the other highest states with reported voter fraud? Georgia. They too also have strict voter ID laws.

I'd wager of all the confirmed voter fraud cases in Kansas and Georgia, they are some of the highest in the nation only because of voter ID laws in place that can catch fraudulent voting! But that's the thing, while voter fraud exists in places with voter ID laws, those numbers are probably the most accurate, and it is very likely eliminating many more illegal voters simply for the law existing.

California on the other hand is taking the approach it's not illegal if you don't have a law or enforce it... So of course voter fraud is inconsequential with how they are looking at the problem.
