Iowa woman who tried to vote for Trump twice pleads guilty to election misconduct
[quote]A woman from Des Moines, Iowa, pleaded guilty to election misconduct for attempting to cast two separate ballots in the 2016 presidential election for then-Republican nominee Donald Trump.
According to the Associated Press, Terri Lynn Rote, 57, entered her plea for the felony charge on June 27. Court documents state that lawyers affiliated with the case are recommending Rote face up to two years of probation with community service on the side.
Rote told police why she tried to vote more than once. She was convinced her first vote for Mr. Trump would be manipulated and changed to a vote for then-Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. According to her statement to the police, Rote believed Mr. Trump's claims about widespread election rigging.
Sentencing is set for August 15. Rote was arrested in October at a satellite voting station when she attempted to cast the second ballot. According to police records reviewed by the Washington Post, Rote's first early-voting ballot was issued at the Polk County Election Office.
In January, according to the Des Moines Register, Rote's defense attorney argued in a filing that she had "significant mental deficits" that should have prevented her from having to stand trial.
During an October presidential debate, Mr. Trump did not clarify whether or not he would accept the results of the election. Citing a 2012 Pew study, Mr. Trump toyed with the idea that the election was "rigged."
"I will look at it at the time. I'm not looking at anything now. I'll look at it at the time," Mr. Trump said after being asked whether he would accept the election results.
Days after the debate at a rally in Ohio, a state which went red in the presidential race, Mr. Trump continued to push the narrative of widespread fraud in the U.S. election system, suggesting he would only accept the final results if he won.
"I would like to promise and pledge to all of my voters and supporters, and to all of the people of the United States, that I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election -- if I win," Mr. Trump said.
Just days into his presidency, Mr. Trump made another unsubstantiated claim that somewhere between 3 and 5 million people in the U.S. illegally cast ballots for Clinton, which he says is the reason he lost the popular vote.
Mr. Trump continued to address voter fraud by establishing a commission to investigate the matter shortly after taking office. That commission has requested data from state election systems, including information such as names of voters, their party affiliations and voting histories. A growing number of states have rejected the requests, with many refusing outright to share the data or only small parts of it. [/quote]
Trump was right - I guess there was voter fraud in the election.

23 RepliesSo below you asked people for sources and seem to dispute that mass voter fraud is impossible. So here are 30+ sources confirming it from the local level all the way to the federal level. I suggest you read this, the entire thing, and yes it has links to all sources it uses. http://www.fairus.org/issue/noncitizens-voting-violations-and-u-s-elections It is important to note that this only covers non citizen voters it does not include dead registries, multiple votes or multiple ballot events that have happened everywhere. [quote]As a result, the preferred form of documentary identification in the United States is the drivers’ license. Drivers’ licenses are issued by the states, pursuant to a widely varying body of state-specific laws and regulations. Currently, twelve states and the District of Columbia allow illegal aliens to obtain a drivers’ license.10 Congress attempted to address these issues with the Real ID Act, enacted May 11 2005, which established standards for state-issued licenses and other identity documents – including verification of immigration status. However, only 24 states and territories are currently compliant.11 Many of the allegedly compliant states have continued issuing licenses and state ID cards to illegal aliens and short-term visitors.12 Others – such as Delaware Utah – have continued to issue “driving privilege cards” or other non-license documents.13[/quote] This is just one piece from this combined research and you saying to others that mass voter fraud is unlikely is dangerously ignorant. I love how you pick one instance from your opposition in an attempt to demonize them but then turn around and believe that mass voter fraud is unlikely/impossible. That level of Trump derangement syndrome is unnerving to say the least. This has been going on for decades and even multiple state elections have been "re-run" due to fraudulent and illegal voting. Here are a few more examples from someone pretending to be another in order to get his ballot, a couple receiving 80+ ballots all with different names for the same address and much more. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pZMU2oMJNHU https://www.google.com/amp/www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/11/03/voter-fraud-california-man-finds-dozens-ballots-stacked-outside-home.amp.html http://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/17/no-voter-fraud-isnt-myth-10-cases-where-its-all-to/ http://projectveritas.com/2016/10/11/hidden-camera-nyc-democratic-election-commissioner-they-bus-people-around-to-vote/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2016/05/25/cbs-uncovers-voter-fraud-in-la-n2168330%3Famp%3Dtrue https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3H2aQAiaYYk https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vgCK2GY9gE4 This is a widespread major issue but because most illegal votes go toward your party and not the opposition you seem to think that it is not a big deal but pick one instance of your opposition engaging in illegal activity and post it in an attempt to "oust" them. This dismissive kind of thinking is dangerous, and just because a man you hate with every fiber of your being said it does not make it any less true. And now i wait for some snarky comment about me or my sources, a dismissal of anything presented here, or you to simply ignore me and anything i present from a variety of sources, as you have in the past.

2 RepliesAgain stop pushing your liberal agenda on the destiny forums please. I know your a typical liberal who always argues and states no facts when people state their opinion. I have seen your post and "debates" before, I know what I'm saying. I'm not saying your a bad guy/girl and yes your in titled to free speech. But please choose a more appropriate place instead of the destiny forums for political content/opinions.
