Voter Verification Quotes

Voter fraud especially matters when elections are close.

I'm against voter fraud in any form, and I have long supported a national voter ID card. But ID cards need not - and must not - restrict voting rights in any way, shape or form.

Mass mailing ballots to voters depends on voter registration rolls that are notoriously error-ridden.

Touch screen voting is a fine thing so long as they have a voter-verified paper trail.

Voter fraud is almost non-existent. People don't just show up on election day, trying to impersonate other people.

I just released an op-ed in the "Washington Post" that talks about providing an I.D. so that everyone can have an I.D., primarily, the social security card, a picture would be put on that card, and a president can certainly by executive order make this happen so that people will not need a special I.D. They'll have one to vote.

While the United States is a prime example of fair elections, there is room for improvement, starting with passing voter identification laws across the country.

With same-day registration, no requirement for a valid, dated photo ID for voters is an invitation to fraud and corruption of our electoral process.

Judicial Watch has taken the lead nationwide in defending state voter ID laws and other commonsense election integrity measures, filing amicus briefs in the Supreme Court and in several circuit courts of appeal and trial courts.

Requiring valid, photographic identification is a common sense step to ensure voter integrity and sound elections.

To make sure that votes are never canceled out by illegal votes, we instituted a photo ID requirement. And don't you think it's fair to apply at least the same standard required to get a library card or to board an airpane?

Pretending that voter fraud does not exist puts the integrity of our voting process at risk.

That every elector, before he is admitted to vote, shall, if required by the returning-officer or either of the inspectors, take an oath, or, if of the people called Quakers, an affirmation, of allegiance to the State.

Judicial Watch has a massive project to force states and counties across the nation to clean up their voter rolls.

My position hasn't changed over the years. Which is that online voting is a very unsafe idea and a very bad idea and something I think no technological breakthrough I can foresee can ever change.

We rely on our voter registration studies to warn states that they are failing to comply with the requirements of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993, which requires states to make reasonable efforts to clean their voter rolls. We can and have sued to enforce compliance with federal law.

I think the people should demand accountability on the voting. I think there's no point in voting if you're not gonna demand fairness and be able to verify each vote. And other countries can do this fairly easily. So I don't think you really want democracy if you're not willing to take that first step.

There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud during the 2016 elections or any relatively recent election.

It is a sign of the times that the absence of meaningful ID requirements in many states leaves our voting process vulnerable to fraud and allows legal votes to be cancelled out by illegally cast ballots.

We have confidence in the overall integrity of our electoral system. It is diverse, subject to local control, and has many checks and balances built in.

I think that, you know, looking at all the systems that I've been studying over the last several years, that paper ballots with a precinct optical scan counters and random audits is the best system that we can have.

Millions of people that are registered to vote that shouldn't be registered to vote. Look, if nothing else, people are going to be watching on November 8th.

I find it odd that there's such strong objection to what is a clear way to assure that our elections are reliable and we can do a recount if there are any questions.

It's inconceivable that you don't have to show identification in order to vote or that that the identification doesn't have to be somewhat foolproof.

You're more likely to see someone fatally struck by lightning than witness a case of in-person voter fraud.
