During his rounds on the Sunday morning political shows, White House Senior Policy Adviser Stephen Miller defended President Trump’s latest claims of massive voter fraud in New Hampshire. He told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos to ask Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach (R) for more evidence of voter fraud, so that’s exactly what CNN did on Monday. It didn’t go well for Kobach.

Host Kate Bolduan hammered Kobach for evidence to support Trump’s claims that thousands of people were bused from Massachusetts into New Hampshire to vote illegally. He explained that there were 6,000 people who registered to vote on Election Day with another state’s driver’s licenses — including 3,000 with Massachusetts licenses — but provided no evidence that they were not New Hampshire residents when they registered.

But Bolduan pointed out that this isn’t evidence of voter fraud and that even being registered in more than one state isn’t a crime so long as those voters only vote in one state. “Where is the evidence of this widespread rampant millions of people voting? If it had happened, why haven’t we seen it, secretary?” All Kobach could offer was nine cases from his home state of Kansas — only six of which have led to guilty pleas. “Six cases does not widespread rampant voter fraud make,” Bolduan pressed.
