The voting commission is a fraud itself. Shut it down.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2017/09/13/the-voting-commission-is-a-fraud-itself-shut-it-down/

..............

a partisan politician — did we mention he’s running for governor? — and lawyer who writes for an alt-right publication known for hyperbole, exaggeration and outright falsehoods is simultaneously leading a commission that has set out to find the impossible, namely nonexistent evidence of large-scale voting fraud. In an outrage-filled administration, this ranks near the top of the list.

Kobach’s article was thoroughly debunked when it was revealed that the out-of-state voters were college students and others legally entitled to vote. “The fact that he continues to stand by his laughable Breitbart column after its clear errors were mentioned at the meeting tells you all you need to know about this sham effort,” says Rick Hasen, an election law guru.

it's serving it's purpose perfectly: gish gallop to waste time refuting, cause liberal tears, and if they're lucky, (additional) dem voter suppression.

and kobach will probably win in KS.

who is STILL bringing the issue of his BIG win (not his illigitimate presidency) up at every opportunity whether approriate or not and the unlawful voter suppression that the GOP has been doing for my entire lifetime.
