Kris Kobach to head trump's voter "election integrity" commission.

Y'all never wanted to vote ever again, did you?

The guy who has purged possibly millions from voting roles nationally is expected to be named to head trump's voter integrity commission.

Prepare to see Crosscheck used nationally.

President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order today establishing a commission to review alleged voter fraud and voter suppression in the American election system, multiple senior administration officials tell ABC News.

The officials say Vice President Mike Pence and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach will be announced as Chair and Vice Chair of the ‘Presidential Commission on Election Integrity’ in a press release today. It's not clear whether the White House will allow coverage of the order signing.

The commission, which will include Republicans and Democrats, will be tasked with studying "vulnerabilities" in U.S. voting systems and potential effects on "improper voting, fraudulent voter registrations and fraudulent voting," according to one official with knowledge of the announcement.

Waiting for the 2018 election to change the numbers in the Congress
is blind faith in a voting apparatus that has already failed us...MORE THAN ONCE! Fool me once... amirite?
