While some states have pursued data sharing arrangements and verification partnerships with federal agencies, others led by Democrats, have refused to adopt these tools defiantly. So this is cause for great alarm. Even if improper or fraudulent noncitizen voting is rare, the absence of uniform verification means that we cannot even measure it with any degree of confidence. And that in turn means we have no idea whether the problem is great or small, or as some implausibly suggest, non existent. And that uncertainty itself undermines trust. (30:38–30:52)

CLAIM
