BUSTED: Government Workers Sold IDs to Illegal Aliens for Voter Fraud

[Revmitchell]

Corrupt government workers in Massachusetts were busted by the FBI earlier this week for selling state-issued driver’s licenses to illegal aliens, many of which were later used to vote in the greater Boston metropolitan area.

According to Judicial Watch, the Department of Justice confirmed the sale of the driver’s licenses to undocumented individuals throughout New England, adding that the false identities and addresses were used to vote in recent elections.

The scam was orchestrated by at least four individuals employed at the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV), and involved outside operatives who linked the public workers with those seeking the fake identification.

The ring was eventually uncovered after someone sent an anonymous tip to local law enforcement in October of 2015.

State officials say the scheme involved a document dealer who sold Puerto Rican birth certificates on the black market. That document was then brought to the Massachusetts RMV where they were issued driver’s licenses without proper background checks.

"These clients included illegal aliens, individuals who were previously deported, and an individual who admitted to previously facing drug charges,” said a statement from the U.S. Department of Justice.

Meanwhile in California, 800,000 "undocumented" immigrants have been issued drivers licenses legally, based on implementation of AB 60 on Jan. 1, 2015,
. - "It didn’t guarantee undocumented immigrants receiving licenses would buy auto insurance." - additionally, "Critics also point to state “motor-voter” law, AB 1461, that starting in 2017 will automatically register most licensed California drivers to vote".

Philadelphia finds hundreds of illegal voters [link]

September 20, 2017, Washington Times
Hundreds of noncitizens were registered to vote in Philadelphia over the last decade, and at least 90 of them actually ended up casting ballots that should never have been allowed, City Commissioner Al Schmidt said Wednesday, adding more fuel to complaints of bogus voting in U.S. elections.

The voters are all self-admitted noncitizens who went back and canceled their registrations later — but not before casting illegal ballots a total of 227 times in elections in 2006 and 2007, Mr. Schmidt said.

He said most of those noncitizens signed up to vote at PennDOT, the state motor vehicles bureau, when they went to get a driver’s license. While legal residents and long-term visitors are allowed to hold licenses, they are not allowed to vote in federal elections — yet thanks to a federal law, the sign-up for both licenses and voter registration is often tied together.


Schmidt: Could Be ‘Tens Of Thousands’ Of Non-Citizens Who Registered To Vote In Pennsylvania [link]

December 16, 2017
HARRISBURG, Pa. (CBS) — Philadelphia election Commissioner Al Schmidt told state lawmakers this past week that there may be tens of thousands of non-US citizens who have registered to vote in Pennsylvania…and that for their sake, state officials should try to contact them.

Commissioner Al Schmidt told a Senate committee that many of the non-US citizens who registered to vote in Philadelphia, perhaps unwittingly, did so through a glitch in the state’s motor voter system. While the known cases number only several hundred, he says they are all self-reported. Schmidt says more than 100,000 PA driver’s license numbers with Immigration and Naturalization Service indicators match with voter registration records. That doesn’t mean that there are that many non-citizens registered to vote, but…

“We’re not talking about an insignificant number here,” said Schmidt. “We’re talking about a potentially very significant number of thousands and tens of thousands.”
