I'm a surgeon I am very objective cancer
doesn't know Republican or Democrat I
look at things absolutely objective why
the hell are deceased people still on
your voter rules and why does it take a
lawsuit by the public interest Legal
Foundation to sue you to get those
people off the voter roles tell me okay
so we'll I'll take the the fir the last
first that lawsuit was dismissed because
we actually are ranked fourth in the
country as the federal judge noticed at
the you have deceased people on your
voter roles yes or no we vigorously yes
or no uh we do everything we can and and
just like every other state to remove
should deed person be on your voter role
no and we that's why we remove them once
legal person who in this country
illegally vote in any election no okay
what if somebody is unknowingly
registered to vote in an election
they're illegal in this country should
their vote be counted no okay great I
would love to hear that and love
everybody to embrace that we do would
photo ID increase Americans confidence
in their elections uh yes or no Mr
ranking member I don't believe so having
an individual show their photo ID saying
they are who they say they are increases
confidence in our elections or Mr
chairman you asked me a a yes or no
question I don't think that's a Magic
Bullet if you board an airplane you got
to show your photo ID you want to buy a
six-pack of beer you got to show a photo
ID if you go into to vote it makes total
sense that you should have to show your
photo ID just to Simply say you are who
you say you are right why would you not
Embrace voter ID we do have voter ID in
New Mexico we just have a variety of
different ways that voters can confirm
their identity yeah so this is where you
know the folks in Georg screamed about
voter ID voter ID is going to suppress
the vot suppress the vote when they had
the greatest turnout in history if you
don't want voter ID why would the reason
for not it's BS to think it is
suppressing the vote BS BS and the only
other reason that people would want that
is so that people could vote who are not
eligible to
vote because in some people's mind that
means well you're going to have to um
Xerox or are are photocopy your ID to
send it in to prove you are who you are
well there are a whole lot of people
especially people who live in rural
communities who don't there's no Kinkos
there's no Office Max near them BS let
me tell you if you are not a conspiracy
theorist by now it's because you are not
intelligent I am not kidding
