So right now, 35 states have some type of voter ID.

What we can do is give them monies.

to help them work on their voter rolls.

And we can hook them up with technology to look at DHS's rolls, who's on government aid, immigration aid.

We can have them look at social security information.

We can have them look at the passport information and figure out if the people who are registered to vote in their states are citizens or not.

So I think that there is some power of the purse here.

Every year we give the states about between $15 and $75 million for elections.

So I think that, look, I'm not sure if we can do this all the way, but in my opinion, if you don't go back and go through your voter rolls every year, if you don't have voter ID, then we're not going to give you any of that money.

I think so.

I think basically we can stop funding these blue states that have – I think the biggest challenge to me is when you send out unsolicited ballots and you don't have any type of confirmation.

Is that person dead you sent it to or not?

Do they still live in the state?

All those types of things as well.

So I think we can defund states.

VINCE
Swalwell Scrambles to Stop FBI From Releasing “Fang Fang" Files | Episode 257

those blue states that have no election integrity.

We'll see.

And again, it's easier said than done.

VINCE

It has to be thoughtful.
