If you're illegal and attempted to vote or you tried to vote illegally for someone else, we will find you and we will charge you. Illegal voter registration and illegal voting both carry penalties up to five years in prison and up to $250,000 in fines. We will pursue maximum pressure on this. To let you know we will be proactively looking at early voting. And then after post election, we will continue to scrub all those that did vote. (09:57–10:08)
