Official Says Voter Fraud Could Have Swayed Senate Race

[GP] The Daily Mail is reporting that the Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach said on Monday that 6,000 people registered to vote in the State of New Hampshire using out-of-state IDs.

This is very significant because the race in New Hampshire was decided by a 1,017-vote margin. While registering to vote in another state is not a crime actually voting in another state is a crime. While officials are still looking into the situation in New Hampshire it is worth noting that voters would not register to vote somewhere if they didn’t intend to vote.

From The Daily Mail:

The Kansas official in charge of a multi-state voter registration ’crosscheck’ program said Monday that on Election Day, 6,000 people registered to vote in New Hampshire using drivers licenses from other states.

...That, Kris Kobach told CNN, supports the White House’s contention that America’s voting system suffers great enough incidence of fraud to swing an election....

New Hampshire Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan unseated Republican incumbent Kelly Ayotte in November by just 1,017 votes, out of more than 707,000 cast...

...’New Hampshire is a same-day registration state. And on election day, Nov. 8, 2016, 6,000 people registered in New Hampshire using an out-of-state driver’s license as their form of identification,’ he said.

#1 Good chance a lot of the voter registrations using out-of-state IDs were people who were indeed NH residents, but who had 'neglected' to get NH IDs, perhaps to save money replacing an unexpired DL, perhaps to avoid changing insurance rates, or having to re-take a test, or just because it is a big inconvenience to navigate the DL bureaucracy. It does show the whole voter integrity system is vulnerable to fraud though.

#2 That's an awful lot of new people in New Hampshire, Glenmore, and waited until election day to register? Doesn't pass the smell test.

#3 Don't forget that NH is right next to MASS ant Vermont.

I'm sure that it wouldn't take much to get a few "transient" voters across the borders.

#4 Deacon, in Louisiana we have some of the most expensive car insurance around, and you can't get your LA DL without it. As a result you will find that almost anyone who can stay licensed elsewhere does so (and only regrets it when they get in a wreck and the insurance company refuses to pay...) If some election came along they felt strongly enough about, they might go 'home' so they could vote. I don't know how MA costs compare with NH, but there are lots of people who move back and forth between the two states; many may have picked this election to vote - and vote in NH.

#5 Kobach is good, and if he says so, I'd take a look.

It is very possible his work on voter ID contributed to Pat Roberts still having his seat.

#6 Folks there's no such thing as a NH residents moving to Mass to avoid taxes or high insurance costs. Just the opposite.
