Republicans often say the point of Democrats pushing a pathway to citizenship is strictly to create more Democrat voters. In this case, what you have are illegals giving an Executive “amnesty” who suddenly show up on the voter rolls
(Breitbart) With the North Carolina U.S. Senate race in a dead heta, state election officials say they have discovered 145 names on the voting rolls who are ineligible to vote because they are illegal immigrants who have been granted President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals status.
According to a Winston-Salem Journal report, the State Board of Elections discovered the potential illegal voters Tuesday night when the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles ran a search for DACA licenses. The 145 DACA recipients whose names appear on the SBOE’s voting rolls will be sent letters requesting documentation that they are citizens, the report noted.
The Journal notes that it is likely more ineligible people may still remain on the voting rolls.
Nearly 10,000 names on the rolls are tagged by the DMV as “legally present,” according to elections and transportation officials. But that doesn’t mean that all 10,000 are ineligible to vote at this time. These are license holders who were not U.S. citizens when they got a license. They may have been green-card holders, foreign workers or foreign students, for example.
Most have become U.S. citizens since getting a license, according to an estimate by elections officials based on a sample of the overall list.
Asking for ID could help stop some of this, since driver’s licenses for the DACA illegals say “Legal Presence, No Lawful Status”. Provided that Democrats working the voting centers would actually stop the usage (there’s where the requirement for voter ID really breaks down: workers who are Democrats).
“We want to know how such a large number of non-U.S. citizens were ever registered to vote in the first place,†Jay DeLancy, executive director of the Voter Integrity Project of North Carolina, told Watchdog.org. “There is clearly a system failure here and we need the Board of Elections and the DMV to help the Legislature and the public understand where the problem lies.â€
One has to wonder how many ineligible legal and illegal aliens are registered to vote in the other 49 States (or, in Obama’s case, the other 57) and have plans to vote. I suspect many of these DACA illegals weren’t even aware they were registered.
For those who went through the proper steps to become a legal US citizen, welcome! Enjoy your right to vote! Vote wisely. Know the issues and candidates.
Say Teach remember the big scare headlines uou posted about the 10s of thousands who were registered in NC and another state. ??? Whatever happened to that ?
Can you point out any prosecutions of voter fraud in any state?
Voter fraud is not significant , when it does happen it is as likely yo be done by someone of either party
It happens very very rarely .
Perhaps instead you might look at NCs gerrymandered congressional districts
How goes it happen. (?) that NC has less than 30% Dems in Congress ?
Oh john, you poor delusional troll…..

You think that 10 votes out of millions is significant ?
Teach there have been less than. 100 prosecutions in the last 10 years and they have been split pretty close by party
100 out of all the votes counted in the last 10 years is nothing close to significant
You are delusional if you think so
Teach maybe you failed to notice. That one Charles White the Secratary of State of MI was convicted in a jury trial of 6 felonies of voter fraud theft and perjury in Feb of 2012
Of course in neither the case uou mentioned or in mine would voter id be needed to perpetrate these crimes
Can you point to a significant number if convictions where the voter if law would have prevented the crime from occurring. ?
Oh my bad it was in Indiana. In MI it was 4 staffers of GOP congressman Mccotter who were arrested for voter fraud
Teach any comment on the court ruling that the GOP could NOT close down the early voting at Appalachian State in NC? They have 18000 students there, gee I wonder why they would try and do that ? No wonder those hot chicks in the pics you post vote solid Dem
The GOP is always trying to make it harder to vote
Republicans are not dumb. They recognize the demographics nationally and have largely given up. But locally is another story altogether. By voter suppression and gerrymandering they are conducting a gentle coup and stealing our democracy state by state. By failing to govern they have increased the citizenry’s disdain for government.
Republicans are not dumb, but they are evil and are opponents of democracy.
Although Republicans cannot admit it in this PC world, they do not at their core believe the votes of poor Blacks, gays, Hispanics and impoverished Americans are as valuable as a that of a middle class white.
It’s voter fraud suppression, J- but you knew that. But tell me, if everybody has to have an ID, how would that be voter suppression? After all, there’s probably more whites than blacks in N.C. Good luck on your explanation. And in what history class did you learn that Republicans are the only ones that gerrymander? The Huffington Post?
