Holder Mischaracterizes RNLA Voter Fraud Survey

Eric Holder has mischaracterized entirely an RNLA email survey regarding voter fraud.  The full story at Main Justice.  (Incidentally, the Main Justice story by Elizabeth Murphy is so full of factual errors it reads like something from the Weekly World News.  No need to detail them all here, but one is the notion I worked on Voter ID prior to 2005.  In fact, I had never heard of it as an issue prior to summer 2005.) 

The survey explicitly stated it was a sampling, and not a comprehensive list. Nevertheless, someone preparing Holder’s speech presented the survey as a comprehensive catalog of voter fraud.  Someone inside DOJ will should be in a lot of trouble for this error.  When you see this at the blog Main Justice, you know there is a problem: “The Justice Department did not respond to requests for comment from Main Justice.”

That’s like Stan refusing to speak to Oliver.  Or Frick ignoring Frack.
