The story will continue in a moment. What's the reality? Voter fraud is widespread. Voter fraud never happens. There is no evidence whatsoever that voter fraud takes place in any way that is widespread at all. If a non citizen tried to cast a ballot, would you be able to catch it? That's just not something that happens because when it gets identified, there are severe consequences, whether it's prosecution and or deportation from the country. (01:11–01:20)
