The GOP is an anti-democracy, anti-government, America-hating extremist organization. They have nothing less than the dismantling of the Republic as their goal.

Those used to be referred to as lies

“What aboutism”on my part. Every time I hear some crap about voter fraud from the GOP? I first think of the BS in North Carolina. Then I think about voter suppression pushed 4ward by the GOP. do as J.Brown told R.Pryor 2 tell B. Cosby 2 do.”Have a Coke & a smile& shut the F up!”

That growing trend being the increasingly divorced from reality base of their cult. They simply do not live in reality or deal in facts anymore and it's a waste of time to interact with the basket of morons.

I would bet that if it were really checked that their was a substantial number if illegals that voted in the last election in Texas and that the WP is spinning this as usual.

“Innaccurate claims“ equals lies.

raphaelha67 Depriving or even attempting to deprive citizens the right to vote is a long tale in the south. JohnCornyn spead this without doing one iota of research. Depriving voters is not the action of pro-democracy. Fits a pattern w love of Putin.

Intentionally misleading someone is called lying. I fixed that for you.

long time problem, GOP chipping away at democracy

Is it working without the disinformation aid? More people than ever know they've been lying their way through these scare tactics. Now more people than ever know that got them conned. They killed their party with these hysterics.

'Inaccurate claims' = LIES.

TX AG Ken Paxton has no business being in office much less accusing anybody of fraud. He’s under indictment himself. For felony fraud.

Man, plus all the Republican voting officials that totally suck at their job if they were true.

GOPChairwoman GOP SenMajLdr GOPLeader kayleighmcenany realDonaldTrump DanCrenshawTX are working to make out democracy into the tyranny of the minority and a dictatorship!

Misinformation is part of the plan Riwriting history is the project to confuse young voter in the future Republicans will be the creators of all evil and precident Lincoln demócrata

Time should be taken to discredit the claims of those bums!

You guys reeeeally need to learn to love the word 'lies.' It's not 'inaccurate claims,' 'statements not based in fact' or 'differences of opinion.' It's lies. They're purposeful lies. Use the right word.

That trend would be Republicans making sht up to suppress votes.

Lol didnt california have thousands of illegals registered to vote also?

Republicans cheat. They always have. Gerrymandering, voter suppression. And still, really stupid people keep voting for these truly awful, horrible politicians.

Voter ID would solve all this

I don’t think lying is a particularly growing trend among the GOP; it’s part of their basic makeup.

GOP loves its voter suppression

Lying again, Pravda?

Every state should clean up voter registration information. Every state should require ID to vote.

No wall, no way! Stop taking Texans land! realDonaldTrump

YOU are VeryFakeNews

So this long, winded 'opinion' piece, lays out little facts or independent research to assert any valuable conclusions. 'Well, Republicans claimed it was 1 million, but then they found some were actual citizens, so less than 1 million, thus no voter fraud. Lies.' Garbage.

The words you seem to find so difficult to say are 'LIES about ...'

* False claims.

CyrusToulabi If all else fails (like the truth), lie. It's the GOP way!

Yeah, a trend of lying. GunReformNow

'Inaccurate claims' is the new term for 'lying'⁉️

Let's fix this. Voter ID cards. Done.

Not how it's misinterpreted. How it's misrepresented.

Vigilance is a good thing, even if it is overblown. Frankly, the numbers of the second look are not something that concerns me. Move on, nothing to see here.

“CLAIMS” very little to no———“PROOF”‼️

Inaccurate? BS! I live in Texas and know Illegals vote! Your nothing but a left wing bias government mouth piece! fakenews norealjournalism

Voter suppression continues. This people in Georgia, Texas and the Carolinas behavior is unacceptable

The lying you mean?

Democrats want to investigate President Trump...How about starting here first Washington Post Political Journalist Puppets ?

It's called lying and racism. Do your job

Damn!! You must have gorilla arms to accomplish that long a reach around! Just say 'Republicans yet again lying about voter fraud'.

Whatever you print is the opposite of the truth.

Why not just say they lie because it fits their propaganda agenda as well as their need to suppress voter turnout.

You mean LYING about noncitizen voting, right?

If the republicans thought these votes would benefit them, there would be no issue.

Party of liars

They can only cheat and lie and fear monger.

No, it’s about folks not wanting to elect you. Grow up.
