WICHITA, Kansas
A conservative firebrand promoting President Donald Trump's unsubstantiated claims of widespread voter fraud oversees a Kansas election system that threw out at least three times as many ballots as any similarly sized state did, fueling concerns about massive voter suppression should its practices become the national standard.

Only six states — all among the top 10 in population — discarded more votes during the 2016 election than the 33rd-largest state of Kansas, according to data collected by the bipartisan U.S. Election Assistance Commission, a federal agency that certifies voting systems. Kansas' 13,717 rejected ballots even topped the 13,461 from Florida, which has about seven times as many residents.

Critics of Kansas' election system argue its unusually high number of discarded ballots reflects policies shaped over several elections that have resulted in many legitimate voters being kept off voter rolls in an effort to crack down on a few illegitimate ones.

"Secretary Kobach uses every trick that he can to make it as hard as possible for eligible voters to cast a ballot — whether it is unconstitutional legislation, targeting immigrants or forcing more eligible voters to use provisional ballots," said Kander, president of Let America Vote, a voting rights advocacy group. "He is on a crusade to stop people from voting and now the president of the United States has given him a bigger platform."

7. Gosh...thinking your registered because of conformation--how STUPID of us

"Some Kansas voters — although the exact number is unclear — even went to the polls incorrectly believing they had legally registered, misled by erroneous confirmations the online registration system generated."

FUCK YOU KKKOBACH,you know exactly what your DOING and you KNOW that these seats held for decades by Republicans which won by 30% are now lucky to win or win by single digits.

This is the FACE of ELECTION FRAUD being played out for all to see here in Kansas.
