    This film (link below) is free to Amazon Prime members.

    The story is all about Kris Kobach's "Interstate Crosscheck', which was a program
    that purged duplicate names across states, under the pretext that duplicate names
    are evidence of intent to vote in more than one state.

    Actually, it's just people moving and they didn't write back to the state they left, their election office to have their name removed. It's not evidence of anything

    Problem is, the software doesn't check for middle names or SSNs or "sr" or jr" etc.
    and, common names are purged, which tend to be more with blacks, than other demographics; Palast contends he as proof that 1.1 million names were purged, and the lest is heavily biased against blacks and minorities. In the swing states, the purged count vastly
    exceeded the numbers Trump won in those states by. Is Palast lying? you be the judge.
    Palast is an investigative reporter for The Guardian, The Rolling Stone, Al Jazeera.

    Yup - the Democrats purged hundreds of thousands of their own voters in just a couple of boroughs of New York City.

    So if you're making the argument that the Democrats are behaving like a criminal gang, I won't disagree.

    Watch the film, it traverses a vast landscape of corruption far more than just voter stuff.

    Well if we had voter I D it would eliminate a lot of that problem, but the Democrats are constantly against it aren't they? They once said if people could get them free, they would agree. But Trump offered free voter ID's and Pelosi had in this last incentive, package, NO VOTER ID. What does that tell you?

    Wouldn't do squat. We've not had voter ID for a century without a hitch. Watch the video, please.
