Or rather, "voter fraud exists" is the new "global warming doesn't exist."
This article in the NYT is about how this federal panel, the Election Assistance Commission, "revised" a report on voter fraud and voter intimidation, like so:
- Out: "There is widespread but not unanimous agreement that there is little polling place fraud."
- In: "There is a great deal of debate on the pervasiveness of fraud."
- Out: Found "evidence of some continued outright intimidation and suppression" of voters by local officials, especially in some American Indian communities.
- In: "Intimidation is also a topic of some debate because there is little agreement concerning what constitutes actionable voter intimidation."
It would be amusingly meta if it weren't so straight-up undemocratic.
