It is dependent upon whether or not people are serious about wanting to curb the problem. Fortunately there are now serious organizations that are looking into the problem.
These Cases Prove the Left Is Wrong to Dismiss Voter Fraud
Voter fraud is back in the news, and liberals are not happy about it.
President Donald Trump has pledged that his administration will fully investigate voter fraud in U.S. elections and recently appointed Vice President Mike Pence to lead the charge.
And because few states have the policies needed to detect and prevent their fraud, there is little risk of being caught. In these situations, it is all too easy to thwart the will of voters.
Of course, there are many on the left who prefer to bury their head in the sand, insisting that voter fraud is a red herring meant only to justify acts of “voter suppression.” It makes for a powerful narrative, but liberals can hide from the facts for only so long.
We have developed and maintained The Heritage Foundation’s voter fraud database, listing confirmed cases of election fraud that have resulted in criminal convictions. Our records are the incontrovertible proof the left insists does not exist—and the database grows larger as new convictions roll in nearly every week.

The Heritage Foundation’s report, “Does Your Vote Count?,” outlines reforms that states should adopt—including requiring photo identification, proof of citizenship, and entering into interstate cross-check programs—that will preserve the sanctity of the ballot box and protect the right of all citizens to cast a ballot.

These policies will finally make it possible to reliably detect, deter, and penalize election crimes.
Sometimes you just drop the mic and walk off stage. You Chip, just dropped a nuclear bomb. Great find. Both articles are perfect.
I love in the first, "just a sampling" showing 474 cases and 755 criminal convictions around voter fraud. "The United States has a long and unfortunate history of election fraud."
In the second report, well, these facts will make Liberals' heads assplode. That old argument about disenfranchising voters appears to be on its last legs:
Perhaps the biggest myth about voter ID laws is that they depress turnout, especially by minority voters. Years of turnout data from states that have photo ID laws show the opposite. Wherever photo ID requirements have been implemented, they have not reduced turnout. In fact, minority turnout has gone up in photo ID states. For example, in 2008, after implementing new voter ID laws, both Georgia and Indiana experienced larger increases in turnout, including of minority voters, in the presidential election than many states without a photo ID requirement. In Georgia, the turnout of both Hispanics and Africans Americans increased dramatically in both the 2008 presidential and 2010 midterm congressional elections when compared to the 2004 presidential and 2006 congressional elections when there was no photo ID requirement in place.
The U.S. Census Bureau conducts a survey of turnout after every federal election and provides a table detailing turnout by race in every state. According to the Census, in the 2012 presidential election, the black turnout rate in Georgia was higher than white turnout even with its voter ID requirement in place.7
In 2012, in Indiana, which has one of the strictest voter ID laws in the country, black voter turnout was 10 percentage points higher than white voter turnout. In 2012, in Tennessee, which had just implemented its voter ID law, black voter turnout was three percentage points higher than white voter turnout. Other studies of past elections support the conclusion that voter ID laws have not reduced the turnout rates of minority voters. One such study concluded that “concerns about voter identification laws affecting turnout are much ado about nothing.”8
The Free Beacon had another article in this mornings addition about more problems found in Virginia. I say it's high time we called them lyin' Libs out on this stuff and it makes my heart happy to see it.
Law Group Finds More Illegal Aliens on Voter Rolls in Virginia
http://freebeacon.com/issues/more-i...ail&utm_term=0_b5e6e0e9ea-bd8e4cbee6-22930469
PILF released a report last year that found more than 1,000 illegal aliens on voter rolls in just eight Virginia jurisdictions that responded to records requests from the group.
This report led to a bill that would have required investigations of jurisdictions whose voter rolls contain more registered than eligible voters. Virginia's Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe vetoed that bill.
