A case cited by the White House as evidence that non-citizens cast illegal votes in American elections did not actually involve any non-citizens voting, the latest in a series of misleading statements on the subject by the administration.

Donald Trump’s deputy press secretary, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, referred in a television interview on Sunday to an incident in her native Arkansas, which she said supported Trump’s claims about voter fraud.

Trump has repeatedly alleged, without evidence, that he lost the national popular vote to Hillary Clinton, his Democratic opponent, because millions of non-citizens voted illegally. His claim has been widely dismissed as a fabrication. Trump said earlier this month that his administration would launch a national investigation into voter fraud, but then it did not.

After the president and a senior aide revived the claims last week, Huckabee Sanders was asked on MSNBC: “Do you think that there are 3 to 5 million undocumented immigrants who cast votes, and that that would have swung the president’s election, in terms of the popular vote, his way?”

1. As Ms. Hickabee knows though, her fellow Arkansan, Atty. Gen.Leslie Rutledge, DID commit voter fraud

But then, she also knows that's one the Rump regime will never look into.

9. I hope she won't be fobbed off on us as the head press secretary

or spokesperson once Spicer is canned or quits. On the other hand, Rosie O'Donnell would play her well on SNL.

4. I've always wondered...

how in the same meme, we Dems can be smart enough to generate 5 million illegal votes, but we somehow can't get them in the right districts.

10. This: Truth. thanks - LOL!

7. republicans need to stop lying to Americans

The only thing the repubes do is to lie, and they suck at it. No wonder no one trusts them.

11. That many people want to get deported?

Voting without citizenship is the easiest way to commit a felony and to get yourself deported. Plus we were witnessing various efforts to discourage people in general to register to vote.

If there truly was a proper investigation, I am sure it will turn up all kinds of electoral fraud and irregularities... But millions of non-citizens voting will not be one of them.
