Election Integrity Actions by Trump Administration

The Trump administration, however, will continue taking aggressive actions to

protect our elections.

Our Civil Rights Division, led by Harmeet Dhillon,

is sending hundreds of election monitors across the country, continuing a

decades-long bipartisan practice.

In the last four weeks alone, DOJ has charged thirty-two

aliens with unlawful voting and registration offenses.

Since the beginning of this administration,

the department has charged seventy such

people with individ-- uh, with such offenses,

and we intend to bring many more.

By comparison, in the prior administration,

they brought only

thirteen. That's not thirteen per year.

It's thirteen in four years total. So think about that.

In the last four weeks, we've brought almost three times as many

as

the prior administration brought in four years.

The prior administration simply turned a blind eye and refused to

protect our nation's electoral integrity.

We can't solve this problem alone. We need states to stand with us.

Unfortunately, several states have actually made it

easier to cheat.

Many states do not require photo ID to vote,

which not only encourages fraudulent voting, but then as a matter of proof,

makes it more difficult to identify fraudulent voting after the fact.

Other states automatically register, uh, to vote anyone who gets a driver's

license, again, ensuring that individuals are improperly added to

the voter

rolls.

Some states apparently still don't even know the basics.

New Jersey, for example, recently admitted sixty-six hundred aliens

had been improperly registered to vote, and they admitted hundreds of them did in

fact vote. So remember folks, voting fraud is real.

Under the leadership of President Trump and Attorney General Blanche, this

department is committed to protecting the vote of American citizens.
