Letter: Fighting Democratic voter fraud

Most of the recent voter fraud cases have involved Democrats.

In 2011 there were investigations, indictments or convictions for voter fraud in California, Texas, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina and Maryland. In all but one case, the alleged frauders were Democrats.

Democrats charge that laws requiring photo identification suppress minority voting, but in Georgia, black voter turnout for the 2006 mid-term elections was 42.9 percent. After Georgia passed photo ID requirements, black turnout in the 2010 midterms rose to 50.4 percent. Black turnout also rose in Indiana and Mississippi after photo IDs were required.

According to a Rasmussen poll last June, 75 percent of Americans support photo ID requirements. Let's oppose Charles Scarfe of Yuba City (Jan. 18 letter, "Fight Republican voter suppression"), the Democrats and the Obama administration's attempt to steal elections by fighting against voter fraud and requiring IDs to vote.
