Voter fraud is a problem in America<\/a>. As more states are becoming aware of voter fraud<\/a>, they are beginning to take action against it–requiring voter identification or keeping a better watch on voter registration<\/a> rolls.<\/p>\n

The Blaze<\/a> posted a story today about some recent action taken in Philadelphia:<\/p>\n

The Indiana-based Public Interest Legal Foundation announced that it is suing the city of Philadelphia<\/a> in federal court Monday for its failure to respond to information requests regarding possible non-citizen voters.<\/strong><\/p>\n

PILF filed the lawsuit<\/a> Monday against the Philadelphia City Commissioners<\/a> on behalf of the Virginia<\/a>-based American Civil Rights Union<\/a> election integrity group, according to the Washington Free Beacon<\/a>. ACRU and PILF sought answers to their inquiries about Philadelphia\u2019s surprisingly high number of registered voters in comparison with the number of citizens actually eligible to vote during elections. But when the city\u2019s commissioners did not respond to the inquiries, PILF filed the lawsuit against them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article explains that the lawsuit states that because the county involved has more registered voters than eligible citizens living in the county. it is possible that they are mot properly monitoring their voter registration lists.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

But the city of Philadelphia did not respond\u00a0to PILF\u2019s requests for updated registration data, the number of voters ineligible for various reasons, the source agencies that provided this information, the records indicating citizenship or immigration statuses, and more, the Free Beacon noted.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cCorrupted voter rolls provide the perfect environment for voter fraud. Failure to clean the rolls aggravates longstanding problems of voter fraud in Philadelphia,\u201d said J. Christian Adams<\/a>, PILF\u2019s president and general counsel, according to its website. \u201cPhiladelphia may not be using all the available tools to prevent non-citizens from registering and voting. Concealing list maintenance records from the public isn\u2019t good government, and it violates Federal election<\/a> law.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is much easier to commit voter fraud in a large city than a small town. Generally in a small town people know each other; in a large city, a poll worker might not know that someone had recently died and was not voting. In a national election, this is particularly relevant because one or two large cities in a state can determine who gets the electoral college votes of that state. Voter registration lists need to be purged on a regular basis to keep our elections honest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
