Editor,
Lodi Councilman Shakir Khan was recently found to have in his possession 41 completed mail-in ballots while having 71 registered voters connected to his home address. Must be quite a house!

Editor,
Lodi Councilman Shakir Khan was recently found to have in his possession 41 completed mail-in ballots while having 71 registered voters connected to his home address. Must be quite a house!
It has been determined that these “voters” are living in Pakistan. The academic journal Electoral Studies published a study that showed “one-quarter of noncitizens are likely registered to vote,” a large enough number to thwart the will of the American voter. The voting records of Fulton County, Georgia, were recently seized by the FBI as part of an investigation into voting irregularities. Last year, 450,000 potential California jurors were disqualified because of their noncitizenship status, many of these found through voter roll information.
I raise these topics in the context of the SAVE Act now before Congress, which, if passed, would require voters to provide a government provided photo ID and proof of citizenship to vote. This past weekend, California’s U.S. Sen. Adam Schiff, a man who listed his Maryland home as his primary residence, has said the SAVE Act would suppress the vote. For once, I find myself agreeing with him. Indeed, the SAVE Act would suppress the vote … of noncitizens.

Thank you for your article - the logic for Voter ID is over whelming. You can't drive a car or a slew of lesser things without an ID so why should you be able to do one of the most important things like voting without an ID?
