GOP Rep Admits “No Evidence” Of Migrants Voting

Raw Story reports:

Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI) admitted that he had no evidence of his claims of voting fraud regarding federal elections.

During a Thursday appearance on C-SPAN’s Washington Journal program, callers peppered Grothman with fact checks after he suggested voting by undocumented immigrants influenced the outcome of presidential elections.

“Well, obviously, it would take, you know, 10,000 inaccurate ballots or 20,000 ballots to turn things around,” he said. “No, we don’t have evidence of that. But who knows? If you find a little bit of cheating, who knows if you had the time and resources to look around for more. Who knows what you’d find.”

Grothman last appeared here in July when he lamented that society should return to living “like it was in the 1960s.”

He appeared here last year when he declared that low-income housing discourages people from getting married.

That same week he complained that Biden won’t nominate “straight white guys” to the federal judiciary.

He also appeared here in January 2023 when he posted a flag associated with the Christian nationalist movement outside his Capitol office.

Months earlier he gave a floor speech condemning the US Census for collecting data on LGBTQ Americans, which he found “horrifying.”

Before that he appeared here in June 2021 when he authored a bill that would ban teaching the history of racism in Washington DC public schools.

His first appearance here came in September 2011 when as a Wisconsin state senator he authored a successful bill that banned mentioning contraception in sex ed classes.

Grothman opposes recognizing Kwanzaa and Martin Luther King Jr. Day as state holidays. In 2015, he authored a bill to place a ban on same-sex marriage in the US Constitution.

He ran unopposed in the 2022 election.
