Last week the president’s Commission on Election Integrity met in New Hampshire. Why did they meet in that state? There is good evidence that voter fraud in New Hampshire affected both the presidential election and a U.S. Senate election.

Both of these elections were close. Hillary Clinton defeated Donald Trump in New Hampshire by 2,736 votes out of 745,000 cast. The incumbent U.S. senator was defeated by a mere 1,017 votes.

The Granite State has same-day registration. That means you can register to vote and then cast a vote on the same day. According to newly released state data, 6,540 people voted on Election Day using out-of-state drivers’ licenses. As of August of this year just over 1,000 of those same-day registrants have obtained a New Hampshire drivers’ license.

That leaves only two possibilities. Either 5,500 people are driving around New Hampshire on invalid licenses. Or lots of out-of-state residents illegally cast ballots in New Hampshire. After all the New Hampshire-Massachusetts border is a mere 40-minute drive for progressives in Boston who might want to swing an election.

I might mention that this is just the most recent issue of voter fraud in this state. In a recent column, Robert Knight quotes the chairman of the Coalition of New Hampshire Taxpayers who has been tracking voter fraud for 17 years. In November after examining absentee ballots, he “caught a Florida woman who has been voting in Florida since 1998 and has been voting [in New Hampshire] for the last 10 years.”

The Commission Vice Chairman Kris Kobach also serves as the Kansas secretary of state. He believes that out-of-state voters in New Hampshire in November were “more than enough to swing two very important elections.” That is why we need further investigation into voter fraud.
