But Virginia, isn’t the only state with questionable voter registration practices.\u00a0 Fraudulent voter registrations have been uncovered in Colorado<\/a>, where dead people were found to be voting multiple years after their death, and in Washington<\/a> where the Turkish-born, non-citizen who killed five people at the Cascade Mall massacre has apparently been voting for years.<\/p>\n Now, the latest voter registration fraud comes from the “City of Brotherly Love” where, according to LifeZette<\/a>, an investigation by Joseph Vanderhulst, an attorney with the Public Interest Legal Foundation, revealed that 86 “non-citizens” have been registered to vote in Phildelphia for years with half of them casting ballots in at least 1 election.<\/strong>\u00a0 What’s worse, the only reason Philadelphia election officials were even able to identify the “non-citizen” voters was because they had self-reported that they were erroneously registered to vote after a trip to the DMV to get a drivers license.\u00a0 According to Vanderhulst’s investigation, the DMV “errs on the side of registering voters” if there are any discrepancies on their forms. <\/strong><\/p>\n Vanderhulst said city officials indicated they err on the side of registering voters.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n “If the checked [citizenship] boxes are blank, they still register them,”<\/strong> he said. “That’s how these people are getting on the rolls \u2026 It’s just too easy. Maybe it’s supposed to be easy<\/strong> \u2014 but the price of that seems to be no discretion on the front end.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n Of the fraudulently registered voters in Philly, 59 were registered as Democrats while 21 had no party affiliation and only 6 were registered as Republicans<\/strong>…which we suspect will come as a surprise to almost no one.\u00a0 But apparently this isn’t a new phenomenon in Philadelphia.\u00a0 Vanderhulst’s investigation found that dozens of illegally registered voters are discovered each year and many of them have participated in multiple election cycles.<\/p>\n Of course, none of these recent cases of voter fraud had any impact on a U.S. appeals court that recently denied efforts by Kansas, Alabama and Georgia to add a proof-of-citizenship requirement to federal voter registration forms.\u00a0 Among other things, the court cited “‘precious little’ evidence of voter fraud by noncitizens.”<\/strong>\u00a0 Per the Washington Post<\/a>:<\/p>\n A U.S. appeals court panel that barred Kansas, Alabama and Georgia from adding a proof-of-citizenship requirement to a federal voter registration form wrote Monday that federal law leaves it to a federal elections agency \u2014 not the states \u2014 to determine whether such a change is \u00adnecessary.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The panel wrote that although the document requirement \u201cunquestionably\u201d hinders voter registration groups ahead of the November elections, there was \u201cprecious little\u201d evidence of voter fraud by noncitizens, the problem the states said the measure is intended to fight.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Permitting the states to dictate the contents of the Federal Form would undermine\u201d its role as a \u2018backstop, the two-judge majority wrote. \u201cThe Commission, not the states, determines necessity.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Which begs the question, exactly how much evidence of illegal voting is officially required before states will be allowed to implement common sense rules to prevent fraud?<\/p>\n\n
