Trump Dissolves ‘Voter Fraud’ Commission

The president formed the panel after claiming without evidence that there was widespread voter fraud in the 2016 election.

President Donald Trump is disbanding his voter fraud commission, known as the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, citing states’ lack of cooperation with the investigation. “Despite substantial evidence of voter fraud, many states have refused to provide the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity with basic information relevant to its inquiry,” the president said in a statement. “Rather than engage in endless legal battles at taxpayer expense, today I signed an executive order to dissolve the Commission, and have asked the Department of Homeland Security to review these issues and determine next courses of action.” After Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in 2016, Trump claimed without evidence that there was widespread voter fraud.
