The Big Conservative Lie On 'voter Fraud'

It's hard to know if Republicans are lying to the country or themselves with their incessant harping on the supposed epidemic of voter fraud. But they are clearly doing one or the other — because voter fraud is nowhere near a significant problem in this country, and to the extent that it's a problem at all, it's a miniscule one. Continually hyping the supposed voter fraud crisis is thus either a collective act of self-delusion or a cynical and flagrantly anti-democratic ploy to justify making it much harder for certain Americans (who just so happen to incline toward the Democrats) to vote. The circumstantial evidence strongly indicates that the latter is the case — that Republicans value winning and holding political power more than they do upholding democratic ideals that could well produce electoral losses for themselves.
