On Face the Nation yesterday, Jared said this in relation to possible voter fraud with mail-in ballots:
“I have a friend in New Jersey just got married. That person got sent two ballots, one in her old name and one in her new name.”
Margaret Brennan let that slide, but let’s think about it. Jared admitted knowing someone who engaged in voter fraud, which is a felony, I think. If he said, “I know someone who robbed a bank,” I would bet the police would be talking to him. If he said, “I have a friend who murdered a post office employee,” you can bet the FBI would be talking to her.
But Jared said, “I have a friend...(who voted twice)….” and the media and the FBI give a collective yawn.
My guess is that Jared was lying, just like Ivanka’s preferred man lies. Who would admit something like that? “Say, Jared, I committed voter fraud. Isn’t that funny?” Who would tell Jared?
But at a minimum, someone in law enforcement should question him about it. Make him go on record. Either he gives up that person’s name, or he admits he’s lying. Either way,….
So. Anyone in New Jersey have any contact with state law enforcement to suggest this? Any New Jersey residents care to write your Representative, Senator, or Governor about this?
