A MILLION ILLEGALS IN CA ISSUED DRIVER LICENCES--SUPPORT TRUMP CLAIM OF ILLEGAL VOTING

Trump was right again.  It was soon after election eve the new President claimed that undocumented voters in California, New York and other states probably accounted for the estimated 2.9 million votes---Clinton garnered  in the 2016 election over Trump--to famously win the popular vote (but dramatically lose the election).

Today, "The Sacramento Bee" published a report entitled " Undocumented immigrant driver's licenses near a milestone in California".  What was this milestone?  That there are nearly a million "undocumented" (illegal) immigrants who were issued California driver's licenses under Assembly Bill 60.  This law was passed in 2013 and its provisions  demands only that applicants for a driver's license prove their identity and California residency.. It ignores  their legal status as citizens and the fact they they may have slipped into the nation illegally.  California is one of ten states which permit this.  So in California there are essentially no major differences between a legal US citizen and an illegal alien who has broken the law to enter the country.  They seem to have all the rights of citizenship and none of the trouble and bother of going through the formality imposed on those who enter this nation legally.

There are those who claim that  Assembly Bill  60 had generated advantages to the state. Some tout the figures which suggest that there have been fewer "hit and run" accidents. Others hail the suggestion of more organ donors.  But the S Bee article makes no mention of how the new law may affect illegal voting in the state.  

It seems clear that in a state with a million illegal immigrants who have a drivers license---there is little that would prohibit them to register to vote.  No one at the polls asks for a voter's birth certificate or citizenship papers.  Who would stop them at the polls?   Furthermore, you can be sure there were many Democrat officials in the state who encouraged these illegal immigrants to register to vote--and vote Democrat.

 President Trump was roundly criticized for his suggestion that the popular vote might have been his too, were it not for these illegal voters...His detractors claimed he was  "lying". It seems those who made that claim were the dissembles--mendicants--not Trump.
