U.S. Asst. A.G.: Minnesota Has a ‘Weird Vouching Law’ that Allows Citizens to Vouch for Another Person’s Citizenship

EXCERPT:

DHILLON: “So for the ones we’ve run so far, 60 million records that we've run, we’ve found at least 350,000 dead people currently on the voter rolls in those jurisdictions, and we've referred approximately 25,000 people with no citizenship records to Homeland Security to look at — you know, dig into that further and see the extent to which people voted. I’m in touch with voting rights activists who are showing me information about people who have voted who are not American citizens. The left told us this never happens and it’s a myth. It definitely happened. Just recently someone was indicted in Minnesota, of all places, for voting without being a citizen. And so I’ve sent a document request to them on that. Minnesota has a weird vouching law that allows citizens to vouch for each other’s citizenship. That’s crazy and inconsistent with the Help America Vote Act. And we’re not to going to rest until we complete this project. Now, Maria, your audience would like to know, perhaps, that five states have actually had federal judges rule against us in this very simple request to get the voter rolls. It’s such a basic voting hygiene concept in the Ninth Circuit, in the Sixth Circuit in in Michigan and just recently Rhode Island last week. So we're expediting the appeals in these cases. There'll be an appeal in the Ninth Circuit and the Sixth Circuit soon."
