Here is AG Frosh’s statement:

Frosh was correct on both of his main points. Trump’s story about voter fraud costing him the popular vote is false, and what Trump’s commission is attempting to do is an illegal invasion of privacy. Elections are the constitutional power of the states, so the reason why so many states that the President won are refusing his request of sensitive voter data is on the basis of states’ rights.

AG Frosh the other major concern. The Trump commission is asking for sensitive personal data to try to prove one of the President’s fantasy conspiracy theories. If the federal government got the data on the nation’s voters, Trump would be able to find a reason to justify a massive purge of voters.

Frosh said what many Secretaries of State and election officials have been reluctant to express directly. The Trump voter fraud commission is an illegal fishing expedition that is trying to justify a presidential fantasy.

Trump is trying to turn a fake conspiracy into a very real voter purge, which is why election officials are across the country are telling the President’s commission to get lost.
