And let's not forget this:

VOTER FRAUD UNMASKED - Mitt Romney committing it

I can understand why voter fraud is on the minds of Republicans, since they are committing it. I can't understand why Democrats have done so little to stop it.

Because this sort of "roll" thing is utter BS.

So, a contractor is paid by the number of people it registers, and commits fraud to inflate the numbers to get paid more. Seems to me this is "registration fraud", which means what? Registering to vote is not the same as CASTING a vote.

Where does it translate into fraudulent votes being cast?

Haven't seen any massive cases of that happening. GOP is bonkers that's a given. However it's idiotic to conflate one into the other. Just because GOP follows this moronic line of reasoning, I see no reason to do the same.

Actual fraud at the ballot box is so small it's not been important in any election above dogcatcher.

Now disenfranchising voters, that's a horse of another color.
