Rep. Darrell Issa Battles Chris Cuomo Over Trump’s Voter Fraud Claim, Refuses To Accept Studies [VIDEO]

The Hill reports:



Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) got into a heated exchange with a CNN anchor on Monday over the number of illegal votes cast in the U.S. During the exchange on CNN’s “New Day,” Issa voiced his respect for Chris Cuomo while calling for the implementation of a “system that the American people believe in.”

“We do have huge problems in getting elections accurate and quickly and getting them believed by the American people,” Issa said. “So you believe that millions of people voted illegally? You believe that?” Cuomo shot back.

“I’m going to hold you to your facts. You said dozens or handfuls. We all know out of 320 million Americans, it wasn’t dozens or handfuls,” Issa responded. Cuomo disputed his claim, saying “we don’t know that.”

“We need to modernize the system. We need to make it accurate and believed by the American people,” Issa said. “And that’s all Donald Trump is getting America thinking about. And I think that’s a good thing.” Cuomo said at the end of the exchange he would send Issa studies that show there are only “handfuls” of illegal voters.
