CNN.com: Trump believes millions voted illegally, WH says -- but provides no proof (and other stories not supported by the facts advanced by the Trump administration)

Doesn't change the fact that if you are voting in November you are beyond the 60 day grace period to obtain a NH license. Plus, college students rarely change their residency to the state they attend college in, so an absentee ballot for their home state is required.

 

There are residency requirements for voting for a reason, and same day registration creates massive issues in that respect.

 

Having said all that, this is all a bunch of hot air. There is no evidence that this changed any results.

A New Study Shows Just How Many Americans Were Blocked From Voting in Wisconsin Last Year

Trump won the state by 22,748 votes.

ARI BERMANSEP. 25, 2017 8:00 PM

 

Rebecca Brinkman moved to Baraboo, Wisconsin, an hour north of Madison, from Ohio in the spring of 2016 for a job as a zookeeper. She worked from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day before rushing to her polling place.

 

In addition to her Ohio driver’s license, she brought a manila envelope stuffed with documents to confirm her identity, including her credit card, her Social Security card, her rental lease, and a paycheck. “I was very well organized,” she told me. But November 2016 was Wisconsin’s first major election with a strict voter ID law in effect, which required voters to present one of a handful of categories of government-issued photo ID. Brinkman couldn’t get a Wisconsin driver’s license in time because her birth certificate was in Ohio.

 

Even though Brinkman was already registered in Wisconsin and had other forms of ID, poll workers only allowed her to cast a provisional ballot. It was never counted. ...

....

The study also found socioeconomic and racial disparities among those impacted by the new law. “The burdens of voter ID fell disproportionately on low-income and minority populations,” writes Mayer. More than 20 percent of registrants coming from homes with incomes less than $25,000 say they were kept from voting by the law; 8.3 percent of white voters surveyed were deterred, compared with 27.5 percent of African Americans.

I thought they only looked at absentee and provisional if the results suggest they could change the outcome?

 

Like if you had 10k absentee and provisional ballots but one person won by 50k votes they don't bother looking at them?

 

 

Thats what I assume is the case. If this pile of unopened ballots isn't enough to swing the election, then why fight over them?

So provisional ballots aren't even looked at to see if they can be counted? 

 

Each State can have different laws so the practices are different across the country. 

 

To count a provisional ballot you have to verify the voter's eligibility which takes extra time/labor so they are at the way end of being counted. 20-35% of them will be automatically disqualified anyway.

Jared Kushner is registered to vote as a female in the State of New York. The other state she's (?) registered in, New Jersey, doesn't list sex. 

 

Unless Ivanka is batting for the other team, I suspect the sex is nil.

 

Maybe this is why we hardly ever hear Jared speak?
