(27,889 posts)That very likely is what they found. I hope someone is willing to go on the record. Was there anyone trustworthy on the committee?

Mike Niendorff
(3,477 posts)Advisory commissions are subject to public disclosure laws that Trump & Co did not want to comply with.
So they're moving it over to DHS instead.
From today's NYT :
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/03/us/politics/trump-voter-fraud-commission.html?_r=0
But Mr. Kobach insisted in an interview that the commissions work would not end but rather would be transferred to the Department of Homeland Security, one of the federal agencies charged with ensuring election integrity and one that he said critics would find more difficult to target.
As a White House commission, the voter-fraud panel was subject to public-disclosure requirements and other restrictions that Mr. Kobach said opponents of the inquiry had seized on in a determined effort by the left to hamstring its investigation. At last count, he said, the panel faced at least eight lawsuits accusing it of ignoring various federal requirements, including one from a commission member, Matthew Dunlap, the Maine secretary of state, that claimed he had been illegally excluded from its deliberations.
